Themeless #19

· By SporcleMirror · Published 2024-07-25T10:13:34.196Z

This one is meant to be easier than usual but still close to a (modern) NYT Friday.
I originally thought about going NSFW with the clue [Banging noise?] for MOAN, but then decided against it.

    Fun fact: the 23A clue is not a pun I came up with myself. I remembered it as a crossword title where the revealer was SINKING FEELINGS, with answers AL(LOVE)RTHEPLACE, SPANI(SHAME)RICAN, KNOCKEDOF(FEAR)LY all going Down.

      I enjoyed it and especially liked the clue for 61A. Thanks!
