Metal Mickey jumped out against me from today’s grid, both the title of an unclear 1980 -Talls children’s show directed by Mickey Dolenz and the brilliant second single of the wonderful suede. Of course, it was just a diversion on our quest to find the true answers.
None of Songs # 1 from 1982 has aged particularly well, though Steve Millers Abracadabra (not to be confused with Lady Gaga’s amazing new Tiktok-friendly Hit what title aside no one will ever) was selected by Eminem and remains a complete earworm that I will now sing for myself for the rest of the weekend.

What are new connections?
New Connections is one of several increasingly popular word games made by the New York Times. It challenges you to find groups of four objects that share something in common, and each group has another level of difficulty: green is light, yellow a little harder, blue often quite hard and purple usually very difficult.
On the plus side, you do not have to technically solve the last one, as you can answer one by an elimination process. In addition, you can make up to four errors, giving you a little bit of breathing room.
However, it is a little more involved than something like Wordle, and there are plenty of opportunities for the game to get up with tricks. For example, be careful on gay and other word games that can hide the answers.
It can be played free of charge via the new Games website on desktop or mobile.
