The answers to today's Strands, game #57, are PINK COMMON SEAL PRINCE 
MEATLOAF JEWEL BRANDY SPANGRAM: MUSICIANS My rating: Difficult My score: 
Perfect 

This was another fairly tough Strands puzzle, mainly because there are so 
many options that it was hard to know what to look for. This is a theme among 
the more difficult editions of the game; look at a Strands puzzle such as the 
Headwear one and there are only so many possible answers, most of which 
you'll be able to think of. But musicians? That's so vast as to be almost 
unmanageable. I mean where do you start? 

I started with PINK, which I found entirely by accident. Coupled with the 
clue of Name dropping I figured it might be celebrities or pop stars, rather 
than musicians exactly, but I couldn't find any other examples for ages. 

The next answer I found was SEAL, again by accident, followed by COMMON. The 
latter was the one that made me realize it was probably a broader category of 
musicians that was needed, and I claimed the spangram not long after that. As 
if often the case that gave the board a little structure and I was able to 
eventually discover the other words after another long search. I'm not sure 
how much I enjoyed this game  I think they work better when more closely 
focused. But maybe that's just me
