Get ready for the strike of midnight
It’s New Year’s Eve, which means there’s a number of traditions people across the world will be taking part in tonight - one the majority of us will be taking part in when it turns midnight is singing Auld Lang Syne.
But can you exactly remember the lyrics? Since tonight is the one time of the year we sing it, you can be forgiven for not actually knowing every word. Auld Lang Syne is a tradition dating back to 1788 which is when the song was written by Robert Burns. The traditional song Auld Lang Syne was originally a poem written in Scots by Robert Burns in 1788.It is believed he collected some of the verses rather than wrote them from scratch himself and the title loosely translates as "Long, long ago". The words were later set to a traditional folk tune.
