(P.S. rite is a spelling mistake no a grammatical one, whereas, ironically, your misuse of the word is a grammatical (syntax) mistake.
Apologies for going on but, seriously, you don't appear to know nearly as much about anything as your tone suggests, so maybe you shouldn't insult those who disagree.
Furthermore, it does not do well to label anyone as ignorant on the basis of their dislike of this album. I assume you were referring to those who dislike the unpolished nature of the music, and i agree that is an important feature of Wait's music that may be misunderstood. But many Waits fans will still dislike the album becasue of the vocals. Johansson is not a good singer (at least in the range she insist on using predominately - her voice does not work that low in the range)
i love Tom Waits, and i think its fantastic that Scarlett Johansson likes him enough to do this album of covers. However, you disprove you're own point: - if you have to know Tom Waits to like the album it has failed - because then its only merit is the reflected brilliance of Waits. As if to acknowledge this you spend the whole five minutes explaining why Waits is brilliant - this does not mean Johansson's album is, simply by proxy.
okay i'm a tremendous tom waits fan and her covers are a disgrace. off key. horrible. i can't believe that tom would agree to this. it's absolutely terrible.
i think the problem is not her vocal or the arrangements, i think they are awesome, they just clash ever so slightly when put together. the music never reaches the slumbering calmness it tries to reach. i think her voice is very cool. and the arrangements rock, i SO get where she was going with the album. i loved it. it makes me feel good when i hear it. i really hope i hear much more like this just better, :D
