This is some text inside of a div block.

Last month we asked for your feedback about the #JustforFun games of 2024 and March’s Connect 4 was your easy favourite! Connected is all about providing for you, our community, and so we’re starting 2025 with an updated and expanded version of your favourite game.

‍

The 5 songs below all featured on Spotify’s Top 50 - Global chart during January 2025. You just have to figure out what (else) connects them all!

‍

‍

And just to show a little new-year cheer and good will, we’re giving you a clue as well!
Experienced Musixmatchers shouldn’t need to do much research to figure this one out

‍

And here we are with the results!

‍

We got a lot of very varied answers this month, many of which could be ‘true’ but weren’t exactly what we were looking for. The key here was in the clue - Experienced Musixmatchers shouldn’t need to do much research to figure this one out.

‍

All of the 5 listed songs had titles which break our Formatting Guidelines!

‍

TURiSTA - ‘Turista’ is a regular noun and so should only have a capital ‘T’ if the word begins its sentence

WILDFLOWER - Whole-word capitalization is generally not permitted

gervonta - The title seems to be named after boxer ‘Gervonta David’, and so it should be appropriately capitalized as a proper noun

APT. - Our guidelines encourage an avoidance of end-line punctuation, particularly full-stops/periods!

Good Luck, Babe! - ‘Luck’ and ‘babe’ in this context are regular nouns and so shouldn’t be capitalized.

‍

Congratulations to…

Josh Bledsoe, Die with a smile, Rangga Genta

...who were the only participants to get this one exactly right!

As I said though, there were many other responses which equally weren’t incorrect, so our thanks go out to everyone who participated and gave this one a go!

‍

Stay tuned for a brand-new Just for Fun game next month!
