Uuuh, yeeeaaaahhh.

 
PseudoNic [TotalFark] 2008-01-30 06:33:35 PM  
She is hot.

 
buntz 2008-01-30 06:39:20 PM  
she is a fantastic singer. Didn't you see Elf?
her voice sounds like those women from the 40's and 50's.
I was always hoping she would come out with something.

/yes, I'm serious

Layla:

I simply do not *CARE* for her *PAR-TIC-U-LAR* style of *MUSICAL* selections. It is nothing personal about Ms. Deschanel.

 
Layla 2008-01-30 06:44:50 PM  
buntz: Didn't you see Elf?

Actually, no.

I agree, though, she does have that smoky '40s thing going on. Sort of reminds me of Cat Power, too.

Now she's hot.

Yes, she is hot, this cannot be stressed enough.

And M. Ward is farking awesome.

Post-War is a great album

Here he is with Neko Case (new window) and the guy from My Morning Jacket.

I also agree. Bought the CD (only CD I've purchased in the last 7 years) specifically for that song.

 
Funsucker [recently expired TotalFark] 2008-01-30 07:33:56 PM  
Decent enough. Not exactly charismatic, but that goes for her acting, too.

 
Eddie_Dean_NY [TotalFark] 2008-01-30 07:34:38 PM  
buntz: She is a fantastic singer. Didn't you see Elf?

Yep. I really didn't like that movie (Will Farrell makes me twitchy), but I bought it for $4.99 on DVD just to watch her sing.

The soundtrack version of "It's Cold Outside" with Leon Redbone is awesome.

And she is so hot in that really odd way. Yummy.

Thanks for the link, submitter.

 
GAT_00 [TotalFark] 2008-01-30 07:36:40 PM  
I will not dispute how smoking hot Ms. Deschanel is, but the bit of singing she did in Elf was much better than that audio clip, and I can't stand the music. It's just not my thing. So I'll vote she just sticks with acting.

 
dahmers love zombie [TotalFark] 2008-01-30 07:42:35 PM  
Deschanel is quite attractive, in a very "going to go psychotic after six weeks and stand over you in your sleep holding a paring knife" kind of way.

Not that there's anything wrong with that...

 
cmunic8r99 [TotalFark] 2008-01-30 08:09:34 PM  
and she's a horrible actress. I couldn't make it through one part of The Tin Man.

 
MetalSwanson 2008-01-30 08:19:26 PM  
"Surprisingly?"

Elf, much?

 
spanky_pete 2008-01-30 08:23:29 PM  
The Deschanel family is just full of talent. And it doesn't hurt that Zooey and Emily are both quite attractive.

Came here to say the same thing.

I heart Zooey.

Agreed.

But at least she can sing!!

Is there any other kind of attractive?

 
uncre8tv 2008-01-30 08:38:33 PM  
She's so much hotter than her sister. She can sing ok, the bit in Elf was very well produced. (not saying it's not her singing, it clearly is, but a little tweaking on the boards goes a long way.)

 
elvindeath 2008-01-30 08:43:18 PM  
I like her singing. But even if I hated it, I'd pretend I loved it because I'd want to get in her pants because she is absolutely fantastically cute. I mean freakishly.

She deserves to be much more famous.

Personally, I'm waiting for the Sufjan Stevens/Tom Daschle collaboration.

/got nuthin'
//and yeah, Zooey is smokin' hot

Been a fan since Almost Famous. And she's HOT, no doubt about it.

They both have the evil eyes. That's why I like them so much. You can imagine all the batshiat-psycho mind-fark games they would play with your ass.

 
Mugato [TotalFark] 2008-01-30 09:11:26 PM  
Oh, her sister is the chick from Bones?

/I'd....nah, that's too easy

 
Embden.Meyerhof 2008-01-30 09:13:01 PM  
I would oscillate in her groin for an extended period of time.

That woman's seven different types of cute.

Oh yeah, the one on left is alright too.

 
Confusion696 2008-01-30 09:22:51 PM  
I saw her a few weeks ago at a very poorly done 'Sounds of the City' at the pretentious Disney Concert Hall in L.A. I was sitting behind her, so the view was nice. She can sing well, she just chooses poor songs.

 
DrBenway [TotalFark] 2008-01-30 09:25:41 PM  
Ever since she leaned over and said, "Someday, you'll be cool," I've been completely hooked.

Wonder if the Joplin biopic will ever go back into production? I'll admit to being just a teeny bit skeptical about her doing that.

And Shiat talking Mushrooms, "I simply do not *CARE* for her *PAR-TIC-U-LAR* style of *MUSICAL* selections. It is nothing personal about Ms. Deschanel" is some serious back-pedaling from "WORST SINGER EVER." Hope you didn't strain anything.

 
LlamaGirl 2008-01-30 09:32:58 PM  
I love her. I will buy this album.

Joplin biopic w/Deschanel? Hot girl-girl action?

GIGGITY

Oh, you saw the film where she throws the kitten in the river, too?

 
skink 2008-01-30 09:54:38 PM  
buntz: her voice sounds like those women from the 40's and 50's.

Reminds me of Jo Stafford...Jo had a better, more refined voice, but Zooey has the same smoky cool tone.

Good find, Subby! I really liked the Sam Cooke acoustic cover.

 
Sliding Carp [TotalFark] 2008-01-30 09:57:40 PM  
Too bad about the 'acting' though.

seriously? you must have clicked on the wrong link.

i'm just gonna say that you accidently made a mistake and listened to ashlee simpson, then your comment will make much more sense.

She and Leon Redbone hit "Baby, It's Cold Outside" out of the park on the "Elf" soundtrack (new window)

 
xChutchx 2008-01-30 10:18:10 PM  
I used to be in a comedy troop with Zooey, and we did some stuff for her "If All The Stars Were Pretty Babies" shows. She's an amazing singer and a beautiful woman.

 
DrBenway [TotalFark] 2008-01-30 10:19:53 PM  
Will say she sounded better to my ears doing classics in her old cabaret act then she does on this new material. On the two songs I listened to, her voice sounded much thinner than I've ever heard it before. Odd...

I've seen some clips from those "If All The Stars Were Pretty Babies" shows and they were great. Really enjoyed them very much.

 
tillerman35 2008-01-30 10:28:51 PM  
She has been in the music biz for quite some time. I believe she composed some of the music for her (also with Farrel, but thankfully in a very small part) artsy movie "Wintersong" (or something like that- I'm too lazy to look it up in imdb). I also think she has an album out there somewhere.

Plays guitar, piano, sings has a pleasant speaking voice and is very pretty but in an approachable way. She's probably a big draw for stalkers with poor self esteem.

Damn, I almost swallowed a lit cigarette! Curse you, tillerman35! And for your information, I TOTALLY respect the stipulations in the restraining order.
