The Sporting Life is a collaborative album by Diamanda Galás and Englsih musician John Paul Jones, released on September 6, 1994, via Mute Records.
The album presents Galás at her most visceral. The collaboration with John brought a new dimension to Galás' sound, with the guitarist bringing a raw energy and rock context to the music.
The Sporting Life includes a variety of songs that explore themes of sexuality, power and oppression. The title track is an intense song that captures Galás' vocal strength and Jones' energy on guitar. Other tracks, such as "Skotoseme" and "Baby's Insane", explore dark and psychological themes.
