New Year’s Day.
New Year’s Day.
The midnight bells are ringing, A ship is setting sail, A newborn baby’s crying, As lovers say farewell. I’m singing hallelujah, Amen, the angels say, Let’s hope tomorrow finds us, It’s New Year’s Day. Let’s toast to new beginnings okay, Raise up a glass and say, For all of our tomorrows, And what was yesterday, (come on), I’m singing carpe diem, I’m saying seize the day, Come on, let’s live forever, It’s New Year’s Day. Where does the time go, Just watch the wind blow, Sha la la la, It’s New Year’s Day. Green does the grass grow, Outside my window, Sha la la la, It’s New Year’s Day. This message in a bottle, The wisdom of the wine, It’s just a rainy Monday, This isn’t Auld Lang Syne. I’m singing hallelujah, Amen, the angels say, Let’s hope tomorrow finds us, It’s New Year’s Day. END
May the year 2026 meet you with good health, steady joy and people who make your ordinary day feel lighter. May you have courage for the hard bits, gratitude for the good bits and plenty of reasons to find laugher along the way.

Watch Fred Astaire’sdance routine featured in the video hereunder, which demonstrates his dancing brilliance. Playing an inebriated guest; he acts loose and soft at the knees, showing slightly delayed reactions and swaying off-balance, yet his timing stays locked perfectly to the music. Classic Astaire clarity in this staging, so you can read the full-body movement and the rhythm in his feet; one of the reasons Astaire dance numbers feel so musically satisfying.
Let’s Start the New Year Right.
Let’s Start the New Year Right.
One minute to midnight, One minute to go, One minute to say goodbye, Before we say hello. … Let’s start the new year right, Twelve o’clock tonight, When they dim the light, Let’s begin. Kissing the old year out, Kissing the new year in. Let’s watch the old year die, With a fond goodbye, And our hopes as high, As a kite. How can our love go wrong if, We start the new year right?

In “Christmas Prayers,” Neil Diamond sings with a quiet tenderness that mixes grief and comfort. He’s holding a loved one close in memory, even as the season highlights that vacant chair, and he turns that same ache into something gentle and perhaps more sustaining.

Christmas Prayers.
You’re in my Christmas prayers, And in my Christmas dreams. In every Christmas story told, And every song I sing, In every song I sing. When I hear people laugh, And I see children play, Reminds me of that photograph, Of us on Christmas Day, It’s us on Christmas Day. I see you standing there, And smiling down on me. As I untie the gifts that lie, Beneath our Christmas tree. And every Christmas day, I know I’ll find you there. You’ll always be the answer to, My every Christmas prayer, My every Christmas prayer. Grandmas, grandpas, fathers, mothers, Friends I’ve loved dear, Sisters, brothers, sons and daughters I once played with, Aunts and uncles I once stayed with. Their story will be told, As long as love recalls. Those loved ones smiling down on me, The greatest gift of all, The greatest gift of all. The loved ones far and near, Will be forever there. It’s Christmas up in Heaven too, With love beyond compare, With love beyond compare. Don’t have to read the book of life, Behind the veil of tears, You’ll always be right here with me, And in my Christmas prayers. You’re in my Christmas prayers.

If We Make It Through December.
If We Make It Through December.
If we make it through December, Everything’s gonna be all right, I know. It’s the coldest time of winter, And I shiver when I see the falling snow. If we make it through December, Got plans to be in a warmer town, come summertime, Maybe even California, If we make it through December, we’ll be fine. Got laid off down at the factory, And their timing’s not the greatest in the world. Heaven knows I been working hard, Wanted Christmas to be right for daddy’s girl. I don’t mean to hate December, It’s meant to be the happy time of year, And my little girl don’t understand, Why daddy can’t afford no Christmas here. If we make it through December, Everything’s gonna be all right, I know. It’s the coldest time of winter, And I shiver when I see the falling snow. If we make it through December, Got plans to be in a warmer town, come summertime. Maybe even California, If we make it through December, we’ll be fine.

O Holy Night.
O Holy Night.
O Holy night, the stars are brightly shining, It is the night of our dear Saviour’s birth. Long lay the world in sin and error, pining, ‘Til He appeared, and the soul felt its worth. A thrill of hope, the weary world rejoices, For yonder breaks a new and glorious morn. Fall on your knees, O hear the angel voices, O night divine, O night when Christ was born. O night divine, O night, O night divine. Chains shall He break, for the slave is our brother, And in His name all oppression shall cease, Sweet hymns of joy in grateful chorus raise we. Let all within us praise His holy name. Christ is the Lord, Let ever, ever praise Thee, Noel, Noel, O night, O night divine, Noel, Noel, O night, O night divine. Noel, Noel, O night, O night divine.
