    Well, it's certainly moody, i'll give it that much. Nice production too. A bit toward the end reminded me of the percussion on a particular zero 7 record. Not that it would have been restricted to or invented by them....

    The vocal. A combo ''wild Rover/Shatner' kind of delivery? You decide.
  2.  
    omg, what an awful voice, worse than shakiras. jennifor love hewitt sings betta.
    it sounds so over produced too.

    Yeeeeah... Can't say I care for the voice. Sounds overall rather unimpressive. Just about what I expected.

    Song sounds like its trying to be a bit to "Indie" for my tastes too.

    But thanks for sharing :).

    yes, it was interesting..i don't think i would have seen this otherwise. thanks kb

    I'm guessing she'll be the next big thing amongst annoying, hipster kids in their skinny jeans and chucks.

    Yes, indeed, the voice......

    Oh she's genuinely gifted. She was blessed with her "platinum blond" hair and a huge rack. What more does one need to get a record deal?

    Oh... a voice, you say? Hmm... I NEVER thought of that.

    i liked scarlett as a natural brunette, i think everyone here's heard my opinion on blondes

    I'm going to sound like wiseman, but scarlett should stick to what she's good for. And it's not acting. And it's not singing.

    Scarlett....honey....I love you to death, but stick to being pretty.
  21.  
    This jumped to mind....For some odd, unexplained reason:
  22.  
    Sounds like she's talking into an echo box..Hire a band to do backgroung...Labels printed and sent...They really churn them out.
    I'd like to see if she has any writing credits or if this is just another Avril like effort. At least Michelle Branch wrote her own songs.
    I could go on for hours, but she is basically doing what most indie singers have been doing for years with no recognition.....Maybe she'll
    spark interest in them.......That is the only good that can come of this though.
  23.  
    Ha ha. Yup, that's it ed. :)
    Could have been worse, could have been Richard Harris!

    Yay. Works :)

    On topic:

    What the fuck? Is this a joke or a serious shot at a career in music? This comes out of nowhere. Sounds horrid. It's like Mazzy Star on crack.
  26.  
    What a terrible voice. Nice hooters though, so I guess it all balances out in the end.
  27.  
    This Richard Harris....Is this the same Richard Harris (the actor)...Or are you thinking of something completely different King?

    i'd rather have a cool voice win on ocassion. i don't care about hooters. and nah haven't heard s.j. sing....
  29.  
    Well Glimmer...Almost as good as Shatner if that means anything to you.
  30.  
    That's him ed. I'm not feeling strong enough to listen to that at the moment though. I still have the scars from the last time I heard it! ha

    But yes, another person, who shouldn't have attempted to sing....
  31.  
    Kind sounds like Diana Ross after smoking 10 packs of cigarettes continously and totally losing her ability sing....But I'm being generous.

    This thread makes me sad.
  40.  
    Which part makes you sad....The scarlett semi-horrible song, William Shatner, Richard Harris or the Scarlett Completely-horrible video?
    Only thing worse now would be Oliver Reed singing tip toe through the tulips....
    Oh you don't think so...Just imagine it:

    Why, God, why?!

    She's much better reading lines than trying to sing them.
  43.  
    Did you guys see Teri Hatcher doing "Before he Cheats"?

  44.  
    Should have taken a louisville slugger to her vocal chords...Oh sorry...That seems to have already been done.
  45.  
    i remember when teri was the hottest woman alive (for me), 'round 1995

    I think she remembers that too, and is trying her damndest to keep looking like 'Hot Terry Hatcher' and not aceppt her MILFY Graduation. I still think she's got an aura of hotness, no?
  48.  
    hmmmm, I haven't watched Desperate Housewives...so not too sure...but yeah, but in those days, she was hot! Lol...I even had my hair cut shoulder lengthed cause I loved her look then ;0
  49.  
    I think at some point, she was getting too skinny and looking a bit wasted.....not sure how she looks now.

    Yeah, wasted women suck.

    I prefer chicks like the one Mandy Moore played in Saved.

    That's hot.

  54.  
    Yeah...I second that Chef.....If you beautiful creatures want to fullfil fantasies go to the front page....
    No....I take that back...Stay right here.

    Behind closed doors....Yeah....I don't want to share with them.....Have you met the people on the front page?
  61.  
    Yes, Freudian slip indeed...hehe, that's what I was thinking ;)

    Well, it depends what you mean by met? I have certainly observed the various types....
  62.  
    I just ment...They are either, weird, mean or both.... :O)

    It's not that she's a bad singer....she's just out of tune. VERY OUT OF TUNE....and not singing in her range....

    She sung in Lost In Translation...and it sounded great. She just needs to sing slightly higher...
  68.  
    She is horribly out of tune yes. And I agree dellia.

    If she must sing, then she should find her range and stick to it.

    Remember : your range is your friend.

    Scarlett Johansson's album debut panned by critics

    05/20/2008 6:00 PM, Reuters
    Steve Gorman

    Actress Scarlett Johansson's latest film work may be getting the red carpet treatment at Cannes, but her debut album, released on Tuesday, is drawing fire from music critics.

    "Anywhere I Lay My Head," a collection of Tom Waits songs recorded by the star of such films as "Match Point," "Lost in Translation" and "Girl with a Pearl Earring," has been described by the actress as "an intimate experience."

    But numerous reviews of the album complained that Johansson's vocals end up lost in the lush arrangements of producer David Andrew Sitek, the guitarist and keyboardist for the indie rock band TV on the Radio.

    For some critics, that wasn't necessarily a bad thing.

    "Johansson's voice is unremarkable and her pitch sometimes unsteady; she's a faintly goth Marilyn Manson lost in a sonic fog," wrote Rolling Stone magazine, which gave her a lukewarm 2.5 stars out of five.

    Britain's Mojo magazine called the recordings "fussy and forgettable," adding that the decision to begin the album with an instrumental was hardly a vote of confidence in Johansson's vocal abilities.

    The disc received a middling "C" grade from Entertainment Weekly magazine, which wrote that her "expressionless voice" was buried "deeply in the druggy ambiance."

    And the Washington Post said it was possible to listen to all 40-plus minutes of Johansson's album and "still have no earthly idea what she sounds like."

    "The album is ultimately too ethereal for its own good," the Post said. "Every song is like every other song, even the ones that sound different."

    The Rhino Records album consists of 11 tracks, all covers of Waits songs except for one original piece co-written by Johansson and Sitek. Two cuts feature David Bowie on backing vocals. The video for the first single, "Falling Down," was directed by Oscar-nominated "Capote" filmmaker Bennett Miller.

    Johansson's latest film, Woody Allen's "Vicky Cristina Barcelona," premiered at the Cannes film festival in France on Saturday. The 23-year-old actress, who did not attend the festival, plays a lovelorn American tourist in Spain.
