Good singing from the audince but, sadly, they are not using the correct words - Robbie Burns will be turning in his grave at this American screw up of the original Scottish version....no Scot would ever say "in days of old lang syne!" At least they were fine at the end with "For auld lang syne" instead of "For the sake of auld lang syne" which English people stupidly and incorrectly sing every time - that's wrong, too! For heavens sake - it's enough to make a Scotsman choke on his haggis!
she never gets old. she is truly a beautiful and amazing lady who stands tall and firm in her beliefs and keeps faith with herself, her family and her friends.
its not a christmas song its to celebrate the New Year! For those that may be confused! Barbara Streisand has a lovely voice ... not like the studio edited crap you get nowadays! Recently lost my mother and she would have LOVED this!

When you sing two songs at the same time, it really sucks. Auld lang syne is one of my all time favorite songs and this would have sounded so perfect if everyone sung it at the same melody. Including the croud.
He may not have composed it, but he rescued it and put it down on paper, oh and by the way, he did write some of the verses.
If there's one thing that gets my goat about people singing this song is when they sing it wrong. It's Auld Lang Syne (Ph: sign) not Zyne!
And also, if anyone is interested the last part of the chorus and verses is "and auld lang syne" not "and days of..." and definitely not "for the sake of...". Grrr!
@jagga85 We learnt at school that it was written as a poem originally by Rabbie Burns in 1788 and was put to the tune of the tradditional folk song, Roud. So he kind of did write it!
Should old acquaintance be forgot, and never brought to mind ? Should old acquaintance be forgot, and auld lang syne ? CHORUS: For auld lang syne, my dear, for auld lang syne, we'll take a cup o kindness yet, for auld lang syne. And surely youll buy your pint cup ! And surely Ill buy mine ! And we'll take a cup o kindness yet, for auld lang syne.

Do americans have a compulsion to ruin everything a song that isn't they'res they have still managed to ruin. Idiots. Didn't even say the words correctly.
'Auld Lang Syne' is a Scottish song, written in the Scottish idiom by Scotland's greatest poet, For that reason, it's fair and reasonable to acknowledge that it's Scottish and that we celebrate the Scots when we sing it.
This was written by a Scot, sung ever by Scots till it spread world-wide, Happy New Year Pal, this is a Scottish song. (as DANNY BOY is an Irish song) or Le Marsaielle is French, by the way Bob D ylan invented Rap (It's Alright Ma).
She is pretty inside; and she does the best with her features - glad she never gave into plastic surgery - she has her own look. I love this, beautiful voice. This is a very nice - a duet with the audience. She is lovely.
Happy New Years from the US back to all around the world. Let's hope this country turns over a new lear in 5 days with a new president, and eradicate our wars.
Just because the word love's lost meaning to you, it doesn't mean the rest of the world feels the same way. Try letting love into your life sometime, it's nicer than being jaded and synical.
Barbra Streisand was, is, and will continue to be the classiest of the so-called modern "divas." She is incomparable. Forget the pretenders, the wannabes, and the media-generated fakes. Open your ears and feast your eyes on the genuine, one-and-only, bona fide best of the best... Barbra.
Barbara looks stunning in that satin gown.! The crowd sang well too. Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year 2009 to all. Peace be with you. From Seri Kembangan in Malaysia.
Granted, I think there is so much hype around this woman and I don't know a lot about her to be fair but I don't think this was so bad for her type of crowed and venue.
agreed. this woman insults scotland and our heritage by singing this i bet she doesnt even know what it means... for all of you who dont it means "for old times sake"
She reminds me of The Nanny

To the people going on about how Robert Burns wrote this song please stop.
He is NOT the original composer, but only popularized and is the reason why it is well know, but author he is not.
In fact this song first came to about 30 years before Robert was even born.
Just thought I should let you know.
