Reba McEntire Can’t Stand One New Year’s Eve Tradition

There is no better way to ring in the New Year than watching the ball drop in Times Square while listening to “Auld Lang Syne,” right?
Not so much the latter if you were to ask Reba McEntire. In fact, she dreads hearing the classic New Years Eve tune.
According to Rare Country, McEntire discussed her feelings about the song.
“I gotta tell you, my least favorite song of all time is ‘Auld Lang Syne’ because it’s so sad,” she said. “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.”
We must admit the 1788 Scottish tune is a sad one.
McEntire has a lot to reflect on this New Years, but you can bet she won’t be listening to “Auld Lang Syne” at midnight.
