Scarlett Johansson (born November 22, 1984 in New York) is an American film actress and singer.
In October 2006, Johansson signed to Rhino Entertainment's Atco Records. Her debut album Anywhere I Lay My Head (released May 20, 2008) consists of cover versions of ten Tom Waits songs along with one original track.
Her second album, Break Up, with Pete Yorn, was released in September 2009.
In 2015, she formed the all-girl superpop band The Singles with Este Haim, Julia Haltigan, Holly Miranda and Kendra Morris. The group were forced to change their name shortly after releasing their first single Candy, as established rockers The Singles filed a lawsuit against the group for using the same moniker. The band then re-formed as Sugar For Sugar, minus Haim.
Johansson has also lent her vocals to various film soundtracks including Chasing Ice, Her, The Jungle Book, Sing, Sing 2 and Wretches & Jabberers
No One Knows I'm Gone
Scarlett Johansson Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
All the trees are gone
The rain made
Such a lovely sound
To those who are
Six feet under ground
The leaves
Will bury every year
Live me golden tell me dark
Hide from Graveyard John
The moon is full here every night
And I can bathe here in his light
The leaves will bury every year
And no one knows I'm gone
Scarlett Johansson's song No One Knows I'm Gone exudes a sense of loneliness, hopelessness, and isolation, which is noticeable right from the opening line, "Hell above and Heaven below." These lyrics, perhaps, hint at the emotional upheaval of the singer, who feels lost and is searching for a sense of belonging.
The lines "All the trees are gone," followed by "The leaves will bury every year, And no one knows I'm gone" bring to mind the image of desolation and abandonment. The beauty of the rain's sound combines with the singer's solitude and desperation, giving the sense that the rain is the only companion she has. And the phrase "Those who are six feet under ground" acts as a reference to the deceased who rest beneath the earth, highlighting the character's feelings of lostness and a longing for death.
In the next verse, Johansson sings, "Live me golden tell me dark, Hide from Graveyard John." The impression here is that the singer is in the search for a direction and looking for something to salvage her from her life. The moon is a frequent motif and symbol in literature, representing change, new beginnings, and enlightenment. Taking into account the line, "The moon is full here every night, And I can bathe here in his light," it seems the singer desires to be reborn, to escape her past life and begin anew, while the line "And no one knows I'm gone" implies that she wants to leave her old life and her emotional turmoil behind her.
