"Kylie recorded her wonderful voice on it and finally the song felt complete," Lightbody added.
"From the minute she recorded her vocals we knew, to properly honour Kylie and the song, it needed to have a life on its own."
The pop icon expressed her immediate interest upon learning that a demo bearing her name existed within the band's archive.
"The story behind this song was irresistible… Hearing there was a demo called Kylie that had been living in the Snow Patrol archives was a complete surprise," Minogue said.
"Gary is such a brilliant songwriter, so to be invited into the band's world is a total honour."
