Determined to have some music that's uplifting (3,2)
I believe the answer is:
set on
'determined' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'have some music that's uplifting' is the wordplay.
'have' becomes 'note' (I can't explain this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'some' says to take the centre.
'that's uplifting' says the letters should be written backwards (in a down clue, letters go up).
The middle of 'music' is 's'.
'note'+'s'='notes'
'notes' written backwards gives 'SET ON'.
'to' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for set on that I've seen before include "Determined" , "Attack" , "Go" .)
