The easy answer is all of them, but “Plainsong”, “Pictures of You”, “Fascination Street”, and “Disintegration” are my personal faves.
On this day in 1989, The Cure released a perfect album - “Disintegration”

What are your favorite songs from this masterpiece?

I hear, “oh, it’s just a joke” and things like that all the time. That people are “too sensitive” and that “nobody can take a joke” as all these people make tons of money by piling on others. I’m honored to work with Katie Strang. This is real life apple.news/AEdkJ7LscQ_W...

“There’s just no good music anymore” is a phrase we hear often.

By that, people usually mean that they’re not hearing the kind of music that got them excited in 1967 or 1977, 1985 or 1991, 2001 or 2015. Read about Jim's take on this phenomenon: bit.ly/4j4aF8H

Atlanta-Fulton County Stadium
Great American Ballpark
Orioles Park at Camden Yard
Petco Park
Rate Field
Turner Field
Truist Park
Wrigley Field

Hoping to add Rogers Centre and maybe another

Only 4 times has a player had 50+ extra-base hits, 50+ stolen bases, and 100+ walks in one MLB season:

Joe Morgan, 1973
Joe Morgan, 1974
Joe Morgan, 1975
Joe Morgan, 1976

And with 1 more extra-base hit and 1 more stolen base in 1977, he would have done it 5 times in a row.

My favorite Dylan album. “Tangled Up In Blue”, “If You See Her, Say ‘Hello’”, “Shelter From The Storm.” So many classics.
If Blood on the Tracks was any less painful, it would be dishonest. If it was any less hopeful, it would be pointless.

Bob Dylan's most painful and brutally honest album was released on this day 50 years ago → cons.lv/WwItMg
