Scarlett Johansson is excited about her "magical" new album.

The 'Match Point' star - who worked with singer songwriter Tom Waits on the
LP 'Anywhere I Lay My Head' - revealed she enjoyed being "crazy" in the
recording studio.

Scarlett told US TV show 'Access Hollywood': "My album comes out in May,
which is exciting. It was a whole other magical experience for me. It was
amazing. I worked with some incredible people and was just able to work, do
something completely different.

"I recorded in a very remote area and just have free reign to be crazy crazy
and that is so exciting."

Scarlett also revealed Waits was "very pleased" with her vocal talent.

She said: "Tom Waits' melodies are so beautiful and his voice is so
distinct. I sent him some of my early, early recordings, and he said, 'Go
ahead.' I've heard he's very pleased."

'Anywhere I Lay My Head' features 10 covers of Waits' songs and one original
tune, 'Song for Jo'.

David Bowie and Yeah Yeah Yeahs guitarist Nick Zinner also worked on the
record.

Meanwhile, Scarlett has ruled herself out of playing Courtney Love in a new
biopic of late Nirvana rocker Kurt Cobain's life.

She added: "I have not seen a script. I read that about myself in a gossip
magazine, but I never read a script or anything. I don't know."
