New Year’s Eve is a time for celebration for a lot of people and Reba likes to ring in the New Year with her friends and family and says, “It’s a time to celebrate and think about all the great things that we got to do this year, and what we’re thankful for.”
Reba went on to say that she feels very blessed to still be making music and sharing it with the people in America and around the world who love country music as much as she does., but there’s one thing she’s not thankful for…or should we say, one song…

Reba –Auld Lang Syne :13
I gotta tell you, my least favorite song of all time is “Auld Lang Syne” because it’s so sad. I don’t know why it’s so sad to me, but I wish we had come up with a more happy song besides that for New Year’s Eve.”
More Reba Notes
Translated, “Auld Lang Syne” means “Times Gone By” or “Long, Long Ago.” The Scottish song was written in the 1700s.
