London, July 29 : Amy Winehouse recorded three songs before her death that could be used for the soundtrack of the next James Bond movie.
The 27-year-old singer - who was found dead at her London home last Saturday - had secretly penned and laid down the vocals for three tracks, reports femalefirst.co.uk.
"What a way to remember Amy. We want her to be known for her talent and not her drug addiction. To have one of her songs used in the next film would be the perfect memorial to her," said a source.
"They were really a work in progress but she'd laid down the vocals and had guitar and drums as an outline. It wouldn't take much to tighten it up into a finished product," he said.
Winehouse's spokesman Chris Goodman said there is "plenty" of material but there have been no discussions about releasing anything.
London, July 23 : Actor Daniel Craig is extremely upbeat about starting work on his third James Bond movie.
"We've got a script, it's fantastic. I'm gagging to go, I've had a break now. Although it sort of seemed like it was never going to happen, it always was going to happen - it was just a matter of sorting out people and financing. We start shooting October or November this year," thesun.co.uk quoted Craig as saying.
In the past three years, the actor has been busy with "Cowboys & Aliens" and forthcoming thriller "Dream House", thanks to which he met his new wife, Rachel Weisz.
After tying the knot in a secret ceremony in New York last month, Craig is now awaiting to reprise his role as the super spy in the 23rd installment of the Bond series.
"It's been nice to have some time off from the role, it's given me a chance to have a break," he said.
The yet-to-be-titled movie will be directed by Sam Mendes. It is expected to hit screens in October 2012.
