About this song:

"Auld Lang Syne" is a timeless Scottish folk song, traditionally sung to bid farewell to the old year at the stroke of midnight on New Year's Eve. The phrase "auld lang syne" translates to "old long since" or more colloquially, "for old times' sake." Its poignant melody and universal theme of remembrance make it a perfect piece for harmonica players to learn and perform during year-end celebrations.
