Mark Ronson has claimed that Amy Winehouse has written an album of holiday tunes.

He told Rolling Stone that the singer has a number of tracks based around the themes of Christmas and Hanukkah.

Ronson said: "We’re talking about making a holiday record, with Christmas songs on one side and Hanukkah songs on the other.

"She’s got songs called, like, ‘Kosher Kisses’ and ‘Alone Under the Mistletoe'.

“She was kind of f*****g around, but I was like, ‘You have all these amazing records to play for Christmas, like Motown and Carla Thomas and the Charlie Brown Christmas, and unfortunately, us Jews have nothing that cool to listen to. So we should do something."

The producer added that he was planning to return to the studio with Winehouse later this year to record the follow-up to Back To Black.
