Yes I think it is Johns clue Marian. :lol: :lol:
Strike up the band is the only one i could think of right now. Must concentrate more.
Funnily enough this was on my school reports Once or Twice :)

So "Gosh its quiet in here " is the clue, I assume.

How about--"Everybody's talking " ??

A good night's sleep works wonders---here is my new clue.

" Maybe this is the Australian version of "Strictly Come Dancing" " ?

I will try As Long As I'm Singing.

Singing is the opposite of dancing. And Australia is a long long way from everywhere (except Indonesia and New Zealand).

Hi Jeff--I liked your try--but it was wrong. As a matter of fact, Lena and Harry were closer in a way. Also Australia is an important part of the clue.

No Marian--that is wrong. The song you are trying to guess does not have an actual place-name in the title.

Jeff was closer in his thinking on that part of the clue.

Looks like you may be struggling on this one---here is another big clue---
think about where Australia is---and what it might be opposite to !!
