Recognise it but couldn't put a name to it, or the singer.
It will come to me but probably not for a couple of days.

Worldle Lack of study and memorisation of the Continent led to a miss by 311 km's although at one of the early attempts I did think of the answer as a guess possibility but didn't use it!

Wordle
got it in 4. Again 4 greens in the right place at guess 2, with 4 possibilities. Eliminated 3 with use of 3 of the "possibles" letters in attempt 3, and got it with attempt 4. Played the percentages rather than took on the chancy shot!

Nerdle got it in 3

Heardle got it in 16, although wouldn't have got the artists without using the drop down list. :-D

Heardle "Warning explicit lyrics" pointed to it being a track which I had no chance of getting without research. Hip hop and rapping isnt quite the same in 2022 as it was in the embryonic days of Grandmaster Flash and the Furious Five, and the Sugarhill Gang :-D . The video for today's heardle has had over 220 million views...is a feast of cavorting and gutter language and not to my taste at all, awful with a capital A in my view :-D

Saying all that got it in 16 secs with a bit of detective work, and some satisfaction in finding the song and the artist from a genre which I have no knowledge of whatsoever.

Well a mixed performance on the rdles today, 3, 5, 3. Lucky with the worldle as the correct answer was the first on the drop down after I'd tried my two, the wordle was a bit tricky with only one vowel!! As for the heardle, needless to say no idea at all and certainly didn't want to hear anymore after the clip. Call me an old fogie but I honestly believe that standards of normal decency and manners have virtually been eroded nowadays - another reason to not want to live in this world!! :cry:

Worldle With not using a map I was lost, closest I got 751 kms away, would never have brought the place to mind. In summary...Fail.

Wordle
got it in 6. Right down to the wire. Once in Royal David's City would have helped!

Nerdle went right down to the 6th attempt as well

Heardle got it in 16 with research :-D

Heardle couldn't do better than that Mick . Got it in 2 Seconds too with just that little bit at the end of the 2 secs. Absolute classic!

Gives everyone a chance this morning!

Regards Neil

PS...yes the official music video has been going for some years but refreshing that Cardi B still has some way to go to catch up...viva the 1980's!

Heardle got it 16 secs via a small investigation which is a little extra challenge when you have never heard the artist or the song but another little game to play. Absolutely massive 230,971,343 views on youtube for the "song".

I took longer but coincidentally as I was on my way home last night (on foot) a tatters pickup passed me playing just that.

Well a mixed bag on the rdles today. Got off to a flying start on the worldle and even better the wordle which I actually found very difficult to find a second word after the marking of my first!! Average on the nerdle giving 3,2,3 in all and back to normal service on the heardle - never heard the tune (if there is one!!), never heard of the artist or the song title!! :-D
