[irzumch]

@ PissyJamesPants ooo thats the reason of dialect i think dat i cnt understand it

[PissyJamesPants]

GOOSEBUMPS!

[Adonisdawg]

OMG DIS SONG IS SO PEACEFUL...LIKE A LULLABY ALMOST...I LUV IT!!!

[xXHeavensMiseryXx]

Einfach unbeschreiblich schön ♥

[irzumch]

its really beautifull even i cnt understand a word...wt language it is?

[bloodpluskillaqueen]

@irzumch Haha, it's English.

[PissyJamesPants]

@bloodpluskillaqueen it's actually gaelic- a Celtic language! Scottish/Irish, not English.

[bloodpluskillaqueen]

@PissyJamesPants It has a heavy accent and dialect, but I'm fairly certain it's still in English.

[PissyJamesPants]

@bloodpluskillaqueen As a Scot, I can assure you it's a mix of old Scot's dialect and Gaelic.

[bloodpluskillaqueen]

@PissyJamesPants Ah, ok. I guess you'd know better than me! :3

[PissyJamesPants]

@irzumch It's old Scottish dialect.

[LovePeaceLaughter100]

what a beautiful voice

[SRicious]

Me gusta! Brilliant choice for a song in the movie!

[charlotteclarkex]

Makes me cry. Every. Single. Time

[rindulus]

Beautiful version of a beautiful song. I love Burns.

[weeclaire85]

Tumbs up if you're listenning to this on Robert Burns day

[eglaga01]

I love this song. Best version ever!!! Her voice is enchanting.

[jimdivax]

As a Scotsman it's very moving to hear this song sung so beautifully... in a true Scots accent. 

[MrsRomuSHka]

Tak dlouho ji hledám a až teď..náhodou..♥ Je božská! ♥

[ttorkia]

@MrsRomuSHka .... jep... přesně tak... uplně jí žeru ... and for @izumch .... this is scotish song... so whad do you think.... what kind of language it can be ????.... hmm.. žeby scotish ??? LOL

[janinechisholm]

[Cla900]

@janinechisholm

me too and happy new year to you as well :)

[nanabbanana]

Just posted this to my Facebook page with my Happy New Year message. It is the most moving version I have ever heard and beats the drunken renditions we usually have at this time of year. Another of Rabbies poems which was set to music is The Parting Cup and is also a great song. I must look to see if anyone has put it up.

[goldencrayons]

im listening to this song in chirstmass :)

[kristinajkh]

i had forgotten this one <3

[TheJgarner]

This is the most perfect version of Auld Lang Syne I've ever heard. The heavens simply open up when I listen to this. Thank you.

[Minmin2228]

Sometimes i cant understand a word but its still Wonderful love it

[JCNoodlehead]

@Minmin2228 Half the lyrics are in gaelic. You can see a good version on Youtube of the song with lyrics so you can read the scottish and english words. =)

[DEBBIEGIBSON22]

great song, but starts the eyes to water, without fail. best edtion ever , in my opinion and 100% Scottish born and bred. ian Y

[fReaKyFreAkYhaIrS]

i love it this song is so wonderful its my favourite song

[livelovelaughlee]

For old friends sake

[sourestcherries]

wad is Auld lang suye?

[CatrionaDuffy98]

so touching, love it<3

[ILoveMUSICALS94]

I always begin to cra if I listen to it... So beautiful!

[TeaLeaf1020]

Has no one else noticed that Mairi Campbell sounds EXACTLY like Joni Mitchell??? In fact, that's who I thought was singing it, till I researched it.

[EALEXC12345]

Funny to think this is how burns intended it to be sung like this, then you go and look at Mariah Carey's 'firework' version, that is just no comparison to this...

[almaalmaalma96]

For old friends sake

[TeresaAnnGray]

She sings it the best!

[JinyChannel]

Thumbs up if you're listenning to this even if it's not Christmas ! :)

[abigailkristina]

@JinyChannel It's for the New Years...not Christmas haha.

[feiy06]

This is indeed the best version and that's the only thing that came good out of Sex and the City

[RobstenPattintwart]

OMG did i really find this song? I knew it for years and i founded it now by mistake :')

[JerZeeStylz]

my new fave version of this song... I love how (almost) janis joplin it feels...

[HarrietS95]

always brings a tear to my eye. always.

[HayleyHunterr]

Song for this years pointe dance<3

[Sh4itaan]

dürft schottisch sein...

aber bin mir net sicher

[H0mbr3G]

@Sh4itaan Es ist Schottish ja.

[Tigerlaura96]

cual idioma es ese? welche sprache ist das?

[H0mbr3G]

@Tigerlaura96 Es viejo escocés Inglés, que significa "hace mucho mucho tiempo" - literalmente, pero en lenguaje moderno significa "Por los viejos tiempos"

[gemmalovemusic]

it's never brought tae mind, not never brought to mind, thats how us Scottish say it :)

[demalula]

Me gusta mucho esa cancionnnn triste pero lindaaa

[baloo451]

Smuk, smuk sang...

[EzioTHOR]

Dieses Lied berührt das Herz

[MrMymanalishi]

I have always hated this song as its sang on new years eve, but this version must capture the true gaelic spirit of the song very beautiful.

[covergirl678]

i dont know i why i love this so much it was so perfect in the movie, love it

[yellowman1972]

very good song

[TheLadyjazzy1]

a cool song and a really sad part of the movie!!

[lafiglia100]

This is the most beautiful, touching take on this song I have heard. <3 it.

[MrNikodemus2]

Magnificent version. Singer is reminiscent of the great Jean Redpath in tone and skill.

[BenedikteM]

9 people has no heart .. how can anyone not love this song?! What´s wrong with you people??? ;D

[Quocalimar]

I like the song, but I understand their reasoning behind it. We all have difrent takes on what's good. I personally don't even look at the meaning of songs, but the melody, to me, is so perfect.

@BenedikteM

[Skwyrley]

@BenedikteM Funny! You'll always find 9 people who are disagreeable! That's "life in the city"!! LMAO

[EdwardStoleMyHeart]

goodwill drink monie - many morning sun - noon paidl't - paddled pint-stowp - pint tankard pou'd - pulled twa - two

[email152]

part two

We twa hae paidl'd in the burn Frae morning sun till dine, But seas between us braid hae roar'd Sin auld lang syne. And there's a hand my trusty fiere, And gie's a hand o thine, And we'll tak a right guid-willie waught, For auld lang syne Meanings auld lang syne - times gone by be - pay for braes - hills braid - broad burn - stream dine - dinner time fiere - friend fit - foot gowans - daisies guid-willie waught

part one

CHORUS: For auld lang syne, my dear, For auld lang syne, We'll tak a cup of kindness yet, For auld lang syne! And surely ye'll be your pint-stowp, And surely I'll be mine, And we'll tak a cup o kindness yet, For auld lang syne! We twa hae run about the braes, And pou'd the gowans fine, But we've wander'd monie a weary fit, Sin auld lang

[opinionatediam]

this is the most moving version of this song i've ever heard, my country man Robert Burns is proud.

[lenkenneth]

i don't like sex and the city... but this song is truely beautiful!

[27SouthernCross]

A beautiful traditional rendition... I did notice someone a few months ago in the thread thought the tune was wrong... the comment maker was wrong... this version is done in the original melody... Lovely...

[Sims2Geek4ever]

7 people should be forgot

[EmmaBee100]

This is beautiful, the best version of this song I've heard!

God love Sex and The City for getting it noticed! ♥

[IsabelCheca]

Really nice song :-)

[mdevi2710]

Love this song but don't know what it means....

[skittles00788]

@mdevi2710 It is a Scottish song which loosely translates as "for old times sake". It is used at midnight on New Years Eve and is about not forgetting old times, and people who are/were important to you. Hence "should auld aquaintence be forgot and never brought to mind..." Beautiful song.

[annie7f]

Jukebox0122@ you can buy it on itunes but you have to buy the album that belongs to Mairi Campbell.

[dannihickson123]

Beautiful <3

[Jukebox0122]

I love this version - too bad I can't buy it on itunes :(

[guitarschlampe]

[lenoreprincess1]

I can't wait to place this song during xmas time... I love it! It's beautiful...

[Brad81980]

@lenoreprincess1 Me to. : ) This version of the song is so powerful.... I get teary eye'd when I listen to it on the movie. This song will make this Christmas meaningful again like it was in our childhoods.

[lenoreprincess1]

@Brad81980 bummer I'll be spending my 3rd xmas outside the states.. it's totally not the same... here's wishing me luck finding a hometown xmas tree :)

It is not actually scottish gaelic but it is Scots (Gaelic+English) by Robert Burns.

[missmedic8]

Ok, dose anyone else notice the lyrics dont match!! its driving me NUTS i cant find the lyrics for this version!!!!

[aXuLiTa]

Should auld acquaintance be forgot, And never brought to mind? Should auld acquaintance be forgot, And auld lang syne! For auld lang syne, my jo, For auld lang syne, We'll tak a cup o' kindness yet, For auld lang syne. And surely ye'll be your pint stowp! And surely I'll be mine! And we'll take a cup o' kindness yet, For auld lang syne. We twa hae run about the braes, And pou'd the gowan fine; But we've wander'd mony a weary fitt, Sin' auld lang syne.

[Buschix3]

oh god, i love it!! <3

[Kristiansen001]

Hi,

For the amazing - over 200 years old history of this song - and the lyrics, I suggest: Auld_Lang_Syne on wikipedia.

Seems quite accurate.

Thank you for posting this amazing song!

God bless!

[mizi1995]

ich finds so schade das sex and the city vorbei ist... hab alle folgen inkl beiden kino filmen gesehen , ich wünschte die würden nen 3 kinofilm machen xD

[lorberblatt]

I love the sylvester scene. It is so sad and the song just fits it.

[SamanthaM92]

I love it, beautiful! It's lovely to be Scottish!

[AmeliaSnow]

@SamanthaM92 lovely, but cold :s brrr

[rebeccaisindahouse]

I love how people are comparing Scotlands rich and beautiful language to something out of lord of the rings!!!!!!!! Beautiful song!

[Redrose340]

So beautiful...

[buoczka]

I tried to find this song when I first heard it in the movie, but I found only poor quality videos. So thx a lot for sharing! The lyrics remind me of Elf language from the Lord of the Rings :-)

[TheZaxTax]

The most beautifoul song < 3 $

[turtlefreak01]

This song was perfect with the movie.
