Pete Yorn Stunned By Johansson’s Singing Talents
Singer/songwriter Pete Yorn had no idea Scarlett Johansson could sing when he asked her to be part of his latest musical project – and feels like he struck gold.
Yorn confesses he dreamed up a collaboration with Johansson after listening to Serge Gainsbourg’s 1960s recordings with Brigitte Bardot, and he admits he was more interested in his music partner’s sexual allure than her singing abilities when he got in touch with her back in 2006.
He says, “It (her singing) wouldn’t have mattered. It was more about her presence and attitude. But I got lucky that she has an amazing voice… she picked up everything really fast.”
Johansson, who is married to actor Ryan Reynolds, made her music debut last year (08) with an album of Tom Waits covers, entitled Anywhere I Lay My Head.

Headline : Pete Yorn & Scarlett Johansson channel Bardot and Gainsbourg in duets album
By : Marcela IsazaThree years ago, Pete Yorn contacted Scarlett Johansson about recording a duets album. He wanted to create something with a ’60s vibe like Serge Gainsbourg’s recordings with Brigitte Bardot.
Yorn didn’t know if Johansson could sing, but thought she would be a good fit.
“I figured, you know, most actors are multitalented. They’ve got to be able to do a lot of things and they probably have some ability to sing,” the 35-year-old singer-songwriter said.
Last year, Johansson released “Anywhere I Lay My Head,” a gauzy assortment of covers of Tom Waits songs. Many argued that her singing voice was hidden behind a curtain of effects so impenetrable, it was impossible to tell if she could sing.
