    I find it amazing that with the inclusion of this gorgeous rendition in an otherwise light movie, Auld Lang Syne went from being a meaningless holiday anthem to being a poignant, tear-inducing favorite song about love, friendship, loss and everlasting memory. Most of us had never heard as powerful a version of this song before SATC. If SJP and Co gave us nothing else, they gave us this. Thank you.

      This is the classic Scottish version of Auld Lang Syne as Robert Burns collected and embellished it. Mairi Campbell does a wonderful job with it but there are quite a number of others by Scottish singers who sing it like this. You won't hear them on commercial TV. I have a playlist on my channel.

It becomes more and more beatiful for ervytime I hears it...mabye because I'm getting older, and things have ather meanings. That's life. And I love this beatiful rendition ❤ (and as a dane, I diden't know at first it was a 'New Year song) but 'the end of an party' song, where everbody stod up, hold hands and sang to and for eachother, it was very beatiful because it was so heart felt ❤
