The most recent one that I can think of is the new Coldplay single, Lost!, which features a rap by Jay-Z, who, along with his wife Beyonce. also happens 2 b freinds with Chris Martin!!!
The rap version of Lost! also appears on Coldplays new EP, Prospekts March, which is due out next week!!! | |

I think they did it with Kylie too. She's not British but has a big following here in the UK but not in the US. They added the rapper Plies to one of her songs I believe.
Also Jay-Z getting added to Amy Winehouse's 'Rehab' is one that springs to mind. I was in the US for a few weeks in the summer of 2007 and the version with Jay-Z was all over US radio. |

as long as i dont have to hear it on any Girls Aloud singles im OK. The Coldplay Jayz version SUCKS big time. "We went where our music was appreciated, and that was everywhere but the USA, we knew we had fans, but there is only so much of the world you can play at once" Magne F | |
