What the Heck Does Auld Lang Syne Mean?

I have always wondered why we sing Auld Lang Syne at New Years Eve. I found out today from this video from Vox:

So there are a ton of different versions of this song.

Two of my favorites are

1. Me First and the Gimme Gimmes
2. The Beach Boys

Yeah – harmonies from The Beach Boys? You can’t beat that.

Happy New Year!
