‘Wish’ was The Cure’s 9th studio album, released on 21st April 1992. It became the band’s best-selling album, reaching #1 in the UK and #2 in the US, where it was nominated for a Grammy in the Best Alternative Music Album category. The album yielded three hit singles, “High” in March 1992, which reached #8 in the UK, the evergreen “Friday I’m In Love” in May 1992 and “A Letter To Elise”, which was released in October 1992. That year’s Wish tour would be the Cure’s most extensive, with 111 shows in 21 countries.

The new deluxe 3CD 45-track edition of Wish includes 24 previously unreleased tracks & 4 more that are new to CD and digital.
