Noel Gallagher: 'mark Ronson Needs To Write His Own Songs'....
Noel Gallagher has slammed producer Mark Ronson for covering other artists' songs - insisting he should write his own tracks.
The rocker is riled by Ronson scoring hits with tunes including Stop Me with singer Daniel Merriweather - a reworking of The Smiths' 1987 Stop Me If You Think You've Heard This One Before - and his duet with Amy Winehouse, Valerie.
That track was a cover of British band The Zutons' song of the same name.
Gallagher, who also dismissed troubled Winehouse as a "destitute horse", said during a recent radio interview: "He (Ronson) wants to write his own tunes instead of everyone else's. He needs to learn three chords on the guitar and go and write a tune".

Noel's got it spot on. Mark Ronson's biggest hit was written by The Zutons. He just got Amy Winehouse to cover it? Talented? I think not.
