Connections
Puzzle #85

 

[Sandi Bo]

Broke my streak of 2 perfects, only to be great today... (Tuesday, Sep 5)

Spoiler: solution

 

[slip]

A perfect this morning. The purple was by default.

 

[Rolltydr]

Same as @slip. I would never have gotten the purple connection in a million years.

 

["Roger"]

Another one who doesn't have a clue about the purple.

 

[clifffaith]

Perfect. The purple/default I recognized a couple as songs, but not the specific connection they were wanting.

 

[DaveNV]

I got the right answers, but I have to call shenanigans on the purple. How would you ever know they belonged together?

Well, now that you mention it - purple shenanigans. I really don't understand what they are saying/meaning. Definitely by default!!

Spoiler

First of all, I don't recognize them all as song titles. Secondly, with parenthesis? Huh?
OK, thank you Google:
I Ran (So Far Away)
Istanbul (Not Constantinople)
MONTERO (Call Me By Your Name),
(I Can't Get No) Satisfaction - OK - I know and get this ONE (I even considered it as a song but that's as far as I got with it).

Yup, too much of stretch connections...

 

[Sandi Bo]

Even in the right order. These must be getting easier, or I'm learning more patience to look further before hitting submit. A little of both?

Spoiler: solution

 

[slip]

A very fast Perfect this morning.

 

[clifffaith]

Perfect, and knew them all!

 

[DaveNV]

Perfect day for me, too. Nice!

Spoiler: solution

I am really bad at movie titles, let alone remember scenes and lines and such (jealous of those who recall is so much better than mine). I'm guessing it's going to be a perfect day for a lot of people. I did google to make sure I wasn't messing up titles (cause I do that). And I only got purple by default, yes now it looks familiar.

 

[billymach4]

This puzzle today was an easy fun game!

 

[Rolltydr]

Pretty easy one today.

 

[clifffaith]

Strange that all the answers had the same general connection.

 

[rickandcindy23]

Today's was weird. I got them all without mistakes, but the Wordle was really ridiculous for me today. Took all six turns.

 

[dsmrp]

Today was easy. Even I had heard of all the groupings .

 

[DaveNV]

Almost too easy today - which immediately made me suspicious. I fell for that before.

Dave

 

[slip]

Yep, Perfect today.

 

[Sandi Bo]

Spoiler: solution

So I went for TAPE UP instead of DEMO TAPE. I suck at movies. Although CARS being a movie crossed my mind, I didn't pick up on the other 3 being movies (thus PIXAR MOVIES being my default group).

 

[Sandi Bo]

Delete - duplicate

 

[slip]

After two quick misses, I got lucky with a Solid. I didn't know the blue until the end.

 

[Rolltydr]

I, apparently, didn’t know anything, ever!
