Frank Turner recently revealed that he rubbished the idea of collaboration with Taylor Swift on his upcoming album 'Positive Songs For Negative People.'

The 33-year-old singer admitted that he wanted the end of the song to be sung by an American lady like Christa, but the record label suggested some of the famous people that producer Butch Walker has worked with like "f***ing Taylor Swift," reported the Mirror.

He added that no contact was ever made but they wanted to ask the 'Shake It Off' hit-maker, which he called "a f***ing rubbish idea."

However, the 'I Still Believe' hit-maker, who recorded with Esma Patterson for the track, also admitted that he has no problem with the 25-year-old singer, but didn't want her to overshadow what he was doing.
