Isn't it ... "just between you and me... ?"

You're right that your wording is a tad more common. Not that I did it consciously, but leaning on "between" as the first word helps the mildly-amusing pivot; the placing of that word maybe made it work, slightly. Now, "the frog is dead," if there ever was one - between you and me : )

But I'm always up for a good dissection. Thanks you!

...and I could solve it by just taking out "just"...but that would cut down on the buildup, the suspense. There goes my relaxing Sunday! Can anyone help us settle this?

Hey, between you and me, there is anyone and everyone...haha.

I think the build and the pivot are both stronger with "Just between you and me," because you're leading us in the direction of a confidential secret between the two of them, then the pivot makes it universal.

You know what, I think you're right. Starting with "just" deepens the meaning, instead of confusing it. I just changed it. Thanks folks! You salvaged the rest of my Sunday!
