Scarlett Johansson's First Song Now Online
Tue, 22 Apr 2008 11:14:57 | Rate news: +0
AOL has the first full track from Scarlett Johansson first album, Anywhere I Lay My Head. The album features ten Tom Waits covers and one original song. It's due in stores on May 20th. After listening to it, I found it to be rather... not great. I don't want to say bad because I like Scarlett Johansson and I think it's ridiculous that singers can become actors, but when actors try to become singers everyone gives them a hard time. But the song just didn't do it for me.

Johansson doesn't sound like she's using her natural voice. She sounds more like she's doing a Tom Waits impression. It also sounds like her voice has been run through the computer a couple times, but that's not uncommon with the ambient type of sound Scarlett says she was going for. Tom Waits has a very specific style of music, one that either works for you or doesn't. Choosing to do a first album that's composed entirely of Waits covers is a pretty gutsy move ? but it's tough to say whether or not guts equals smarts in this case. Rolling Stone seems impressed with Johansson's efforts ? and they've likely heard the whole album.
