AceShowbiz - In a bid to prove that she is not only a singer in the studio, Scarlett Johansson made a deal with AOL to appear and perform live in its regular sessions program. The "Lost in Translation" actress who will release her debut album "Anywhere I Lay My Head" on Tuesday, May 20, have come to showcase the effort and promote the album that contains mostly Tom Waits' cover songs.
Out of the 11 tracks in the album, Johansson in total brought five songs to the stage. They are first single "Falling Down", "Green Grass", "Who Are You", the iTunes bonus track "Yesterday Is Here" and the title track "Anywhere I Lay My Head" which can be seen below.
With the album coming around the corner, CD reviews have been outed by several trusted sources. Billboard.com noted that "The whole set is heavily dosed with reverb and electro-swirls, perhaps to cloak Johansson's vocal limitations as much as to add psychedelia."
To watch the complete set, log on to AOL.com.
