Video for Scarlett Johansson's first single now online

In preparation for the May 20 release of Scarlett Johansson’s much-hyped debut album, Anywhere I Lay My Head (or is it in celebration of the fact that a certain blonde actress-turned-singer is on the cover of a certain magazine?), the video for her first single has been released online. The clip is for the song “Fallin Down,” from Wait’ 1988 album, Big Time.

All but one of the album’s 11 tracks are Waits covers (the other is an original song written by Johansson entitled “Song for Jo”), and altogether Anywhere I Lay My Head covers 30 years and eight albums of Waits’ career.

Come May 20, Anywhere I Lay My Head will be available both at record stores and online, including ScarlettAlbum.com.

Last but certainly not least, there will be ringtones available for “Falling Down” and “I Don’t Wanna Grow Up.” You know, if you’re into that sort of thing. If not, maybe this clip will be more to your liking:
