I think she has a pretty good voice, and she's beautiful as hell, but this version is far inferior to Tom Waits. Her voice just is lacking all the emotion and desperation that was in the original.
Scarlett sounds like she lays her head in fancy hotels all over the world.
Tom sounds like he has laid his head in some filthy back alleyway.
@DrSpikeSpiegel i understand where you're coming from, but i think like many others you are disregarding the pure beauty and sense of awe this album exudes. i don't think it was scarlett johansson's intention to sound like tom waits, but rather to render his music in a dreamy and atmospheric soundscape, and create another world entirely
She's not good at singing, she better act her whole life, and people will love her forever so.
