Isn't the idiom "Move over", not "Roll over"?

Isn't the idiom "Move over", not "Roll over"?
- dmix 8y agoAgreed, I thought that was a strange choice of words as well. I just assumed it was some sort of popular British-ism. "Roll over" implies some sort of subjugation, as an animal rolling over in a submissive stance. Rather than "moving over" being something taking new precedence in ranking, as a progression to the next step.

- indy 8y agoPerhaps the title is in reference to "Roll Over Beethoven"?
