Only four more months away and I'll be able to listen to this great Matt Monro song: One Morning In May.

Maybe this Cliff Richard song title is a bit harder:

We Don't Talk Anymore

This is just a shot in the dark, Paul, but is it YOU'RE GONNA HEAR FROM ME?

Excellent guess, but no, that's not what I was thinking of John. Your guess probably matches my antonym title better that my song. If no one gets it on Tuesday, you can submit one. We've written about my song quite a bit on the message boards; it's one of his best performances (but then so is You're Gonna Hear From Me!).

We have talked often about IGAWYVW. But, no John, this song is more a synonym than an antonym. Also, your guesses are including two pronouns whereas my antonym title only has one.

Anxiously awaiting your next guess!

That must be "Born Free"---and yes, Paul, of course you are right with "Maria/Tony".

Here is my next one

"October Genius"


It is quite fun to think of the clue--as well as guessing !!

Marian - I think yours must be April Fool.

We Don't Talk Anymore is still up for guessing. It's giving John some grief. Secretly I'm enjoying this after all those B side lyrics he has submitted. :D :twisted:

I had not realise4 there was a second page already, so I had not spotted that "Born Free" had been guessed.

And I think a few postings have crossed mine.

So I will try and guess Paul's one. I have had a few ideas but noe of them really fit !!

And yes, mine was "April Fool "
