Today’s Heardle answer is an easy one if you’re of a certain age or into a particular kind of music — but could be difficult otherwise. If you play Heardle, you’ll know what I mean.
Haven’t played the game before? It’s one of the best Wordle alternatives and clones, but rather than making you guess five-letter words, it gives you six chances to identify a song from a 15-second intro. Heardle pulls its playlist from the most popular streamed tracks on a range of platforms, so you don’t need to be a huge music buff to stand a chance of getting a good score.
Still, it can be surprisingly tricky to guess the name of a song just from the intro. That’s where we come in — we’re keeping track of the answers from past Heardle games, and we’ll give you hints for today’s Heardle answer if you’re stumped.
Plus, if you just want to know the solution to today’s Heardle, you’ll find that here, too. No judgement from us.

Well done if you got the right answer!
After getting Total Eclipse of the Heart yesterday, a song with a wide reach in popularity, a few players I saw online seemed frustrated by today’s Heardle song choice. It’s easy to forget that fans of every genre of music play Heardle, so even if rap isn’t your thing, lots of people will still be excited to see their favorite artists represented in this music game.
I can definitely say that rap music isn’t my area of expertise, so I was lost for the first few seconds of the opening. Once I heard some vocals, I figured it must be a rap artist, and XXXTENTACION was my first guess. That got me a yellow cross on the board, so I knew I had the right artist. However, I still didn’t recognise the song, and I only had one guess left at this point. I clung to hope, and selected XXXTENTACION’s song “Hope” as my final guess… and was incorrect. So close!
