pop singer Kylie Minogue has thanked Coldplay for covering her hit track 'Can't Get You Out Of My Head' in tribute to her breast cancer battle, at the Glastonbury Festival over the weekend.
The Australian star is recovering at home in Melbourne after a cancerous lump was removed from her breast last month following her cancer diagnosis. After learning of her illness, Minogue was forced to cancel her appearance at the annual Somerset music event.
On Saturday, headline act Coldplay played an acoustic version of the catchy 2001 tune, saying, "Everyone's paid to see Kylie as well, so shouldn't we salute absent friends," while dance act Basement Jaxx also covered her song during Sunday's closing gigs.
On her official website, Minogue writes, "I was deeply moved to hear about the tributes at Glastonbury. Though I'm desperately sad at not have been able to perform, I was so happy to feel that I was, in a small way, still a part of it. My humble thanks to the artists and the crowd. I'm far away but I hope you felt the smile on my face and the joy it brought me."
