Well, mine wasn't by personal choice because it was kind of a street party thing. However, I liked it. The DJ played "We Are Young" by Fun and timed it so that the first chorus kicked in bang as New Year came in. Everyone was singing, one girl (who looks like an IINer I like) was screaming "Happy New Year, Manchester" and five seconds later the fireworks went off (everyone mistimes the fuses... seriously just leave it five seconds longer than you think you need, and you're set) then the DJ faded it into Auld Lang Syne (although not a version I've heard before). More fireworks, Chinese lanterns, and a cheer. It was actually pretty great.
What was the first song you listened to in 2013?

It even stopped raining.
