i actually like it, i really like it, i love her voice. most ppl leaving negative comments are flat chested fatties. who will Never look half as good as She does.
i banged my gf to this song,maybe thats why i like it lol
The real question is could Tom pull off that little black dress? I tend to think so but realize there may be a variety of opinions, it's purely a matter of taste.
Ghastly horrible. She's so pretty but miserably tone deaf. What the hell is that male backing vocal track trying to do? Jesus, it just gets worse and worse as it goes on.
I'm so sick of these actresses thinking they have any business putting records out there. Their voices are so digitally altered and overpowered with music and sound effects so that you cant hear how bad they actually suck! What kind of idiot record Label would spend money on making this shit? They all suck, Paris hilton, Lindsay Lohan, and heidi montag need to stick to acting!!!
I like the track - the thick accompaniment ("wall of sound"-like) and her song-appropriate voice. In fact, I think the video detracts from my mental picture of what's going on musically. If she were an obscure indie, folks would be going nuts for this. I find it credible and enjoyable.
omg love ur acting and beauty but no offense but singing just kills it... your better off acting and modelling.. singing isnt ur thing.. it sucks so bad..i had to be honest..
lmfao... this song is fucking ridiculous... shes hot and shes a great actress but dont ever sing again please save yourself the embarrasment. she married that scientology douche bag too damn feel bad for the rich poor actress.
This should have stayed Tom Wait's song. I'm not sure what he was thinking giving the permission to do this. All I know is that most people can't cover him well, let alone her. For fuck's sake.
she is incredible. i really tought that she would make a pop album of waits songs. but she gets every single song and doesn't ruin the spirit of it. she has a fantastic feel for it
Come on Poeple! The song is a Tom Waits cover don't you get it? It is not supposed to sound smooth. The original artists roots are in blues. If you listen to any of Tom Waits music you would realize that it sounds a thousand times better than the original! Besides not everyone is meant to sound like Mariah Carey. I personally love the song and think she did a great job.
This guy is right. The rest of you have no idea. I kind of thought she was going to turn the Tom Waits album into an MTV kids bop kinda deal, but im glad she didn't. And yeah, just because she doesn't sound like mariah carey or rhiannan or some shit, she's not good? it's meant to NOT be perfect, and dark. dumbasses.
is the best version that exists of the song, and ok Johansson has not the voice, but she have the ears to hear the music before singin, that is important too
I agree with courtyardpigeon- it's like listening to kareoke and I'm not drunk enough for it to sound good! Production's alright by TV on the Radio dude though
umm people, are you serious. go listen to her sing summertime; then try to say she cant sing. she does'nt over-due it and thats a good thing, shes not pop and shitty like every other singer//actress.
janelmarie15: that's not Scarlett singing Summertime, FYI. The youtube videos that say that are a lie--it's another singer. Look it up. The fact that Tom Waits is good shouldn't make her good. It's like saying all of the thousands of American Idol rejects who sing "good" songs are good singers--not true. Scarlett, just be quiet and pose. Thanks
I love it, and I've been a fan of Waits forever. I think she totally 'gets it', and it almost has a Tangerine Dream/David Lynch feel to it. She's a talent.
why would tom waits allow something like this? the band is good, scarlett is the problem. her voice just does not fit with the music, or even the song.
the last thing i want to hear is a shitty version of waits at a store one day. why doesn't anyone just start listening to his old albums?
What were you guys expecting? Jennifer Love Hewitt? Mandy Moore? J Lo? I like her voice. Its very solemn 60s, like someone who would sing with The Velvet Underground. I think Bowie on background gives it a little something extra, as well-- they're a good pair.
First impression: it's depressing, the sound is so hummmmm dummmm growllll... combined with her voice in the background... well dunno, let's say it is not instant love at first hearing. Hate to see her leave the music business, love to see her go in the movies :P
I love Scarlett, I love her voice, I love this song, I love this video and we can hear the voice of the wonderful and incredible DAVID BOWIE. It's just perfect. Touching.
I agree. I have heard such bad things about this song. I think it's good. I think people just don't like when actresses try to tranistion from actress to singer...I think she did a good job.
I thought it was like, one of those songs that has like, has a background part in the beginning and then they start singing, but, its like the entire song.
haha... that is exactly what i was thinking. wow i guess this is what would happen if a background singer just decided to make an abum alongside the real singer to play as backup track.
even if this song is LISTENABLE....listen to the previews of the rest of the album on itunes....they SUCK! what a travesty...especially her version of Who Are You. terrible.
Bah, when I first heard about this I was outraged. I love Tom Waits, and I hate Scarlett Johansson's acting. But then, I heard it, and the instrumentation is actually significantly different. It's more atmospheric and full, and her voice is nice. I might give into this.
I love her voice, it's deep and throaty - unlike half of all these other stupid ass actor bitches aka Lilo and lets not forget Paris Hilton's wonderful record.
This is way better than any of that crap, I love Tom Waits and I think she did a decent job at covering his music.
I like her voice and the whole Album. Simply the fact that you really recognize her makes her stand out against singers like... well, don't know their names that much, but... you know, that Miley-Cyrus-Girl and all these highschool-musical-singerettes and such... ;-)
no, she isn't the most talented singer--but her voice is unique and flows well with the jazzy avant-garde indie style of music. the whole album is pretty nice for falling asleep.
i actually like it, i really like it, i love her voice. most ppl leaving negative comments are flat chested fatties. who will Never look half as good as She does.
