Ellie Goulding released a new song from her upcoming album Halcyon Days. The track, produced by Burns, is a modern twist of the 1986 Midnight Star song called Midas Touch.

"Now you've been trapped by love. Someone takes your heart and then says goodbye. So you say that you'll never love another. Tired of playing games and that's the reason why," she sings.

"Me and the amazing @elliegoulding have done a song together," Burns tweeted on Friday.

The forthcoming album will feature six other new songs. The new tracks include the DJ Fresh collaboration Flashlight and the Nate Ruess written Goodness Gracious. See the full list of tunes here.

The 26-year-old also released another song, Burn, from the album titled via Twitter on Independence Day. The upbeat track is produced by One Republic's Ryan Tedder.

"When the lights turned down, they don't know what they heard. Strike the match, play it loud, giving love to the world. We'll be raising our hands, shining up to the sky," are some of the song's lyrics.

She also released the song's video in July, which has since garnered over 13 million views on YouTube.

Halcyon Days is the rerelease of her 2012 sophomore album Halcyon. The album peaked at No. 9 on Billboard. The record is the follow-up to her 2010 album Lights which only peaked at No. 21 on the charts.

Goulding spoke about her sophomore album with GQ in 2012 and said the record was influenced by her break-up with Greg James, a BBC Radio 1 DJ.

"It was inevitable. I find it hard to not write about things that happen to me. In any relationship, you can't predict anything," she said. "Like, I met someone else [DJ and producer Skrillex] - I could never, in a million years, have predicted that."

Halcyon Days is expected for release on August 26, according to the singer's website.
