MCCABE: 'THE ZUTONS WON'T COVER WINEHOUSE'

THE ZUTONS frontman DAVE McCABE has laughed off suggestions the British rockers cover an AMY WINEHOUSE song, after she scored a huge chart hit with their track VALERIE.

Singer McCabe admits he is a big fan of Winehouse and her version of their hit song, but insists his band won't be returning the compliment.

He tells Gigwise.com, "No, not at all. We wouldn't do it. It would be like a weird version of her songs. I think she's done ours good."

And the bands saxophonist, Abi Harding, agrees with McCabe, claiming Winehouse "doesn't need" them to cover her material.

Winehouse collaborated with DJ Mark Ronson on her version of Valerie, which was released in 2007. The Zutons' original was released in 2006.
