Sunday night, the Men's Final at the Australian Open Tennis, and AAF gets performed by The Jersey Boys, who are appearing in a musical of some sort in Melbourne. Unaccompanied four part harmony, in a late 50s doo-wop style, adding some unexpected and non-standard chords, and taking the brave step of singing the last couple of lines with a falsetto lead an octave up and all heading stratospherically to the last chord. Could have been nasty and ending in tears, but they pulled it off.

Somewhere between 8.5 - 9 was the considered opinion.

Jessica Mauboy at the Australian Open Tennis before the Women's final

All three of us scored it a solid 7/10. She didn't muck around with it too much and stayed in tune and on key.

And we get another one tomorrow night. Whacko!
