gone on

Quite taken by

Gone on describes being infatuated or enthusiastic about someone or something.

Most often it signals romantic interest: She's really gone on him.

The phrase suggests being carried away or captivated—your attention has "gone" somewhere and stayed there.

More common in British English than American.
