The track, co-written with Flowers, was released as a single in October last year with Robbie Williams taking up vocal duties, however the new version featuring its writer Brandon Flowers is now set to appear on Avicii's forthcoming album Stories.

The album, expected to be released later this year, is also set to feature the likes of Chris Martin, Tom Odell, Billie Joe Armstrong and John Legend.

In a recent interview with The Independent, Flowers discussed his record label's desire for him to make an EDM record which saw a number DJs approaching him: "Everybody. Every single one. They all sent me tunes – songs you hear on the radio [now]. But I just couldn't sing them… So anyway, part of all that was them asking me, 'Well, what would you like?' And I said, 'Well, something that's like 'Smalltown Boy' would be cool.'" Flowers went on to sample Bronski Beat's 'Smalltown Boy' for the single 'Lonely Town'.
