News Listen to Scarlett Johansson Shame the Legacy of Tom Waits
Posted by on Tue, May 13 at 9:22 AM
Since there is no way in hell you are buying that slow moving trainwreck that is Scarlett Johansson butchering Tom Waits’ songs (right? RIGHT?), you can stream the entire record, Anywhere I Lay My Head, right here.
My, someone sure likes the Cocteau Twins. While ScarJo has plenty of cred on the albumproducer Dave Sitek is in TV on the Radio, and some guy named Bowie stopped by to desperately align himself with youth sing some songsthis whole project seems painfully unnecessary, and feels like one of those bizarre novelty discs (Blackest Album: An Industrial Tribute to Metallica, or Karma Police - Anyone Can Play Radiohead Tribute) that Cleopatra Records releases.

She's got this low volume, multi-tracked vocal thing going on like Azure Ray. Quiet, subtle, droney. This just suggests to me that she's not really capable of singing all that well. The music doesn't save the rest of the sinking ship.
