Sorry Paul, like the Emperor's New Clothes I cannot see that "I Have Dreamed" is the opposite to "We Don't Talk Anymore"...

Marian :lol: :lol:

I thought that, Marian, but didn't like to say anything, I thought I must have been missing something. :cry: 8)

Well done Robert--and John--I think I made it too easy--I am going to be like Paul--and make them REALLY DIFFICULT next time.

Robert or John--whoever gets here first, it is down to you !!

Sorry for the confusion Marian (from Kent) back there. We were sending in posts at the same time. As I was previewing my response to John, you already had submitted two guesses and one of them was I Have Dreamed! For historical purposes, I went back and editted my post to indicate that John's two guesses were incorrect.

I wouldn't have gotten Forever Sunshine.

Marian (from Reading) and John: I said We Don't Talk Anymore may have been a stretch, but "I" is the opposite of "we", "Don't" is kind of the opposite of "have", and "talk" is kind of the opposite of "dream" (i.e., a daydream which the song is likely about). I just added "anymore" because it's one of two CR songs I like. The title as a whole doesn't have to be a complete opposite, but individual words can be antonyms.

Robert: Is yours Sunrise Sunset?

I think we are unanimous that Robert's one was "Sunrise Sunset" , so while I am here, and before I go to bed, here is one
