Washington, December 15 : `Take That' singer Gary Barlow is said to be toying with the idea of having a duet with pop band Girls Aloud.

The Brit songwriter had met the girl group's Cheryl Cole, also a `X Factor' judge, while nodding to a mentoring role on the reality TV show.

It was the rendezvous that had reportedly left Barlow with the thought of "an all-star collaboration".

"They''ve done very well, it''d be great to work with them," Contactmusic quoted the pianist-producer saying.

A source further told Britain''s The People: "The boys think the single would go down a storm. Just imagine it." (ANI)
