Today’s NYT Connections, while not difficult, did take me some time to solve. I began by solving the Yellow category, and while I was unfamiliar with this exact song, I did have the sense to put these body parts together.
The Green category came next, and this was a breeze as I’m an autohead myself. The Blue category, on the other hand, was where most of my time went. However, some back-and-forth Googling helped me out here, too.
