(Almost) Perfect Record Albums...

I’m half kidding, but one album that is excellent that many people are too cool to admit is “All the Right Reasons” by Nickelback.
I agree for the most part, but sometimes I go back-and-forth. I've had the discussion w/ @MeanDean (and others).
I'd take a longer version of Maj if I could get a shorter version of I Want You She's So Heavy. That just drags on too damn long.

The end of "The End" is perfection. It needed to just stop there. "Her Majesty" is catchy enough and may make a fine full song, but it has no business where it was.
The Cure: Disintegration
However I have never cared for the song "Lovesong."
Your mileage may vary.

"The End" is a more fitting "end" for sure, especially knowing it was the conclusion of final studio LP the group recorded (even if it wasn't the final album the band released).
I like the white-noise-buildup/plug-kicked-from-wall coda to "She's So Heavy" ... but I think the song has one too many verse/chorus/bridge segments.
So, every single song on that album is 'that one song'?
Haha yeah it's one of the epic collection of songs that all feel like your favorite song from the album.So, every single song on that album is 'that one song'?I would go with Kill 'Em All with 'that one song' being (Anesthesia) - Pulling Teeth. They could have just worked about 45 seconds of that base solo into another song.
And Kill Em All huh? Rockin their other stuff? I enjoy most of their albums, minus St. Anger I think lol.

I have to concur on Moving Pictures. I haven't found its equal in the rock realm, top to bottom.
Same could be said for Smashing Pumpkins' Mellon Collie and Foo Fighters' In Your Honor. All three bands were big enough in their respective times to pull the double albums off, but none of them ended up being their crowning achievements. Must be a creativity sweet spot based on where each of these was released in the respective careers of each band.
I prefer everything before and including ...And Justice For All but I can usually find something I like on all of their albums but yeah, St Anger is my least favorite.
