I will try Walk Away.

"Walk" could be the opposite dancing.

"Away" could be the opposite of 'down under', i.e., Australia.

Another good try Jeff---but still wrong. You are getting closer with "Down under"---what could be opposite to "Down under" ?

By the way Jeff--have you seen how many "views" on this thread---over 7000 in about 10 weeks---that is 700 in a week---100 per day---that is a LOT !!

I hadn't noticed the number of views. I just check the number of pages. I can't believe this game has generated almost 60 pages!

Could it be: Walk Into The Dawn

Or "Over the Rainbow" :?:
"My Tears Will Fall Now That You're Gone,
I Can't Help But Cry, But I Must Go On" :(

Sorry -you are all wrong---but I am impressed with your guesses--almost as good as the right answer.

Here is another big clue--

This is a very well known song--but a rare song for Matt.

I do not know where that last one came from Marian--but it is wrong.

The answer is very simple--no double meanings or anything like that!

I will just repeat a couple of the best guesses and thoughts.

"A wall flower at the Hammersmith Palais"---and "Down under"

Well Marian, I said Heaven because we are always told it is "Up There"!!!!

So it's something to do with standing somewhere, up there?? :?: :?:
I'll have another think while you're in Sainsbury's!!!

That's the one !!

This may be the Australian version of "Strictly come dancing"

Opposite to Dancing---is sitting----especially if you are a wallflower at Hammersmith Palais. :lol: :lol:

Opposite to Australia, which is "Down under" is "On Top"

Therefore we get to "Sitting on top of the World"

Well done Marian---it pays to keep trying --you get there in the end.
