| Wow. Pete Murray has finally done it. He's finally written a really great song. Don't get me wrong, i enjoy parts of the first ablum but there were some bland bits. and even the good bits were lacking something. But opportunity really hits the spot. I agree with the previous comments. This song makes you want to get off your arse and take what opportunities arise, because if you pause to long... they'll be gone. | |

| I was at his live concert, he said this is a song based on peoples lives when they are caught in a cross roads and they don't know what they are going to do at the time... Kinda finding your way I guess... | |
