Whenever I think of starting a new year, the song "The New Year" by Death Cab for Cutie (from the CD "Transatlanticism") always starts to wind its way into my head. In case you haven't heard Death Cab, they are very "emo" so the songs are always mellow and at times depressing. Anyways, have hope for and look forward to your New Year, unlike this song:
"So this is the new year.
And i don't feel any different.
The clanking of crystal
Explosions off in the distance (in the distance).
So this is the new year
And I have no resolutions
For self assigned penance
For problems with easy solutions
So everybody put your best suit or dress on
Let's make believe that we are wealthy for just this once
Lighting firecrackers off on the front lawn
As thirty dialogs bleed into one
I wish the world was flat like the old days
Then i could travel just by folding a map
No more airplanes, or speed trains, or freeways
There'd be no distance that could hold us back.
There'd be no distance that could hold us back [x2]
So this is the new year [x4]"
