You know, I could actually look past how laughably bad her voice is if she were actually trying, actually writing her own music and making a decent attempt at it.

A bad songwriter is infinitely more respectable than anyone who makes an entire album of covers.

But you're wrong, she wrote a song on the album called 'Song for Jo' !!!!

Yeah if you're trying to get credibility, ie an actress crossing over into music, you don't make a fucking cover album. The fact that you're a Tom Waits fan doesn't give you any brownie points in my book.

And the album is fucking dogshit. The one song she did write is atrocious.

I think the irony of this project is that there's going to be people who will like the album but will one day hear Waits' original songs and say they are a piece of shit and that the man can't sing.

I believe that will be the biggest crime among people who support this album.

Man, thank god she had that band behind her, it at least made her somewhat mediocre.....

Watching the music video......holy crap......Your beautiful Scarlett, but stick to acting (your at least somewhat good at that.)

She looks nearly as bored doing that as I was watching it.

i said this was going to be a stinky pile of festering tripe the moment i heard about it...and i was cussed down and accused of being a 'jellus' hater.

well it's probably worse than i first expected, and i think she underestimated just how skilled waits is in his delivery.

can't act, can't sing...just a pair of big old titties after all.

go away scarlett jo.

Who is she trying to sound like? Feist? She doesn't sound like she's singing in her own voice.

This album will hold a respectable place on the mantel of musical history, in between Pat Boone's metal album and Dee Dee Ramone's hip-hop album.

Haha..."I've come five hundred miles / Scarlett and me..."

I honestly couldn't go past that part (the :20 mark maybe)

She sounds like shes singing in a glass capsule underwater with a really bad cold. It doesn't help much that she's gross too.

I'd be furious if I was Tom Waits. There wasn't a fraction of a second of Johansson's recording that provided anything of value to the listener.

That clip posted isn't representative of the album though right? Maybe Sitek has something to layer that voice so it doesn't sound so awful.
