New Year's Songs

Taking a shower this morning, I got to thinking about how there were so many Christmas songs and so few for New Year's Eve/New Year's Day. Other than "Auld Lang Syne," which Robert Burns didn't really write about the holiday but has long been associated with it, I could only think of two.

"What are You Doing New Year's Eve?" by Frank Loesser is something of a standard; I have recordings by Rufus Wainwright and Diane Krall.

"Same Auld Lang Syne" by Dan Fogelburg actually mentions Christmas Eve and not New Years.

What other New Years songs are out there?

"New Year's Day" by U2 is a given. I would also suggest:

"Bringing in a Brand New Year" - Charles Brown

"Celtic New Year" - Van Morrison

"Christmas Ain't Christmas, New Year's Ain't New Year's" - The O'Jays

"Funky New Year" - The Eagles

"Happy New Year" - ABBA
