Rocker Noel Gallagher believes that Amy Winehouse will be dead soon, he claims in an interview with NME magazine.

The Manchester born singer/guitarist of Oasis – the mid-90s bad boys of rock and roll – said that he has a huge amount of songs left over from recording sessions for the bands new album ‘Dig Out Your Soul’  which he thinks that Amy, 25, would be perfect for.

However, he believes her rampant drug abuse will end her life prematurely, so he’s thinking about Duffy instead.

He told the magazine: “I’ve got a backlog of 30-odd songs just sitting there. I don’t know what the f**k I’m going to do with them all.

“Could I give them to someone else to sing? Well, there’s a few that sound like girls could sing them, but who?

“F**king Amy Winehouse? She’ll be dead before I write another one.”

The 41-year-old guitarist knows what its like to work with a drugged up maniac. His twin brother Liam was notorious back in the bands heyday for taking lots of drugs, alcohol, and lashing out at photographers.

Noel reckons Welsh singer Duffy would be a good match for some of his music.

He said: “That Duffy’s alright. I could imagine her singing a few of the tracks. But I might put them forward for a film, although I don’t want them to end up in any romantic comedies.”

‘Dig Out Your Soul’, which includes single ‘The Shock of the Lightning’, is released on October 6.
