Winehouse 'plans Jamaica move'

Amy Winehouse wants to move to Jamaica to record her long-awaited third album, it has been claimed.

The singer has been holidaying in the nearby island of St Lucia since December, and The Sun reports that she does not want to return home.

A source told the newspaper: "Amy is having the time of her life in St Lucia and doesn't want it to end. She is looking and feeling so much better and is worried about the bad influences waiting for her back in London.

"She has written a big chunk of her new album and has told bosses she wants to go to Jamaica to record it."

The source added that while her label Island Records is aware of the availability of cannabis and crack cocaine in Jamaica, they are keen to accommodate Winehouse's wishes as long as she continues working and getting better.

Producer Mark Ronson recently confirmed that he would like to work with the singer again.
