Marianne Faithfull, David Bowie - I Got You Babe YouTube video by Nadia Als

Here it is, one of the finest duets of all-time, Marianne Faithfull and David Bowie putting a fabulously pervy British twist on “I Got You Babe”.

Latest @tennisunfiltered.bsky.social episode Jan 30/2025 Australian Open Review was a joy to listen to. Funny, scathing - just 3 blokes shooting the tennis breeze unfiltered. I enjoyed it thoroughly. And yes Calvin is the bees knees but it wouldn’t happen without James and George is adorable!

Two conflicting things can be true at the same time. It was impactful because it ruined the moment.

Chris Wilson Live at the Continental might be one of the best albums ever

Oh! I left for a walk thinking it was a done deal

Waddup?

@tennisunfiltered.bsky.social thoughts?

Wonder how Murray feels watching Nole pull the same psychological manoeuvre on Alcataz that he himself succumbed to exactly a decade ago (2015) in exactly the same arena.
Nice guys finish last with Nole. Murray is complicit this time. Kinda sucks.

Huh?

Monfils ❤️ Svitolina
Doubling the Joy
Couple goals

@tennisunfiltered.bsky.social Joao Fonseca for captain just got one step nearer 🎉

@grogsgamut.bsky.social he was not a wildcard. Used his protected rankings.

I don’t get why he doesn’t get a super coach. Someone he respects who gets him. He seemed to have great rapport with Borg at Laver.

What Wendy said. Even better, let’s have the players here!

Dear Mark - big love and hugs from Australia. Hope the days ahead hold silver linings.

So tickled to have my question discussed! 🥰

lol

Federer and Alcaraz in deep conversation at Laver Cup. The heart dropping moment Rafa was drawn against Zverev (sorry, while it started off appropriate, the internet dumping on ‘that guy’ now feels cyber toxic) at RG. Novak’s Gold. The stream of significant (and not so significant) farewells.

Zverev mentioned that production of tennis balls have become inconsistent since Covid due to cost cutting measures accounting for poorer quality overall. Any truth in that?

I believe them

But I resent the distraction

These are professionals. Carelessness should not be part of the makeup. They are stuffing up my ability to fan.

I am grumpy.

Some fans (me) have thoughts too:

Assuming you’re coming to Melbourne for the AO - try Cairo by Chris Womersley a coming of age fiction based around the stolen Picasso Weeping Women (fact) from the gallery here. More recently, try CherryWood by Jock Serong. Both Melbournians. Both write about Melbourne like only a local can.
