Album of the day. Today should be a national holiday, for real. Happy 50th anniversary to Stevie Wonder's epic Songs in the Key of Life. A gold standard in a series of gold standards. A breathtaking musical cornucopia of anthems that span soul, gospel, jazz, folk, funk, and much more. Hearing Stevie Wonder's in-the-pocket, one-man-band musicianship across this album remains a revelation (and he was only in his mid-20s!) From the joyous buoyancy of "Isn't She Lovely" to the swinging salute to beloved jazz greats in "Sir Duke" to the unmatched beauty of "Summer Soft" to the everlasting hymn "As," this is one of those no-brainer albums that you grow old with, raise your children on, cleanse your spirit with, and everything else. Every home should have a copy.

Stan Laurel's famous hat trick in "Bonnie Scotland"... For years, my father used to pull this trick on me as a child, and much like poor Ollie, I never figured it out!

One of the very best to represent England in every sense of the word. Fast and fearsome with ball in hand on the field, as kind and gentle and funny as possible off it. Deserves great success with whatever is next. 👏🏽

He always gave everything for the Three Lions, on and off the field 🦁
