No, it isn't porn.
So what do you all think about the Tom Waits cover album Ms. Johansson did? Am I missing the brilliance? Perhaps judging her too harshly as yet another actor turned musician? (because that so rarely works out. Exhibit A: Keanu Reeves. Nevermind that he has a shitty acting career too, lots of people like him.)
My take:
All hype. Maybe because she's hot, I don't know.
I heard so many great things about the album before it came out- just glowing reviews and stunning admiration that the girl so famous for her body parts could be good at something else. I heard the songs, though, and all I heard was far too much sound engineering and a sterilized alto voice that could have been so much better left to its own warbling inadequacies. So yeah, i'm disappointed.
If I missed something, by all means- enlighten me. I wanted to like it, really.

It is just bad. Really bad.
So you finally listened to it.
Glad to know that it isn't just my biased and snobbish ear making a snap judgment.
I'm still wondering what all the critics were smoking. Good grief. The way some of them drone on about the album, you'd think the second coming was contained within the liner notes.
You didn't miss anything. It's tacky.
