RADIOHEAD Singer Thom Yorke teamed up with British Prime Minister David Cameron, tennis ace Andy Murray and others to record a single that consists of two minutes of silence.

The single, titled 2 Minute Silence, goes on sale on November 7 to commemorate Remembrance Day on November 11 honouring fallen soldiers, Stereogum reported.

Music producer Mark Ronson and actor Bob Hoskins are also featured on the track - being completely silent.

"Rather than record a song, we felt the UK public would recognise the poignancy of silence and its clear association with remembrance," said Royal British Legion Director General Chris Simpkins in a statement.
