I will never understand Rick Astley's popularity, I'll stay with "Auld Lang Syne" for New Years Eve.

Have fun and flame away and I wish everybody a Happy New Year.

What’s iconic about Camden? The battleship USS New Jersey, maybe. But I never heard of the Roundhouse.

It can’t be any worse than “New Years Rockin’ Eve with Ryan Seacrest”.

Because that great big masculine voice was coming out of a nerdy looking dweeb in 1987. He was adorable.

Apparently, he is also a nice humble family guy.

This is my all-time favorite New Year’s show, and I still watch it nearly every year:

All great musicians, who also was an amazing songwriter.

Myself, I'm going to polish up my dance shoes, and bring out my LPs with Guy Lombardo and His Royal Canadians,

We are really going to get our freak on.

He had more than one hit. In addition to "Never Gonna Give You Up", "Together Forever" also went to #1 on the Billboard 100. He also hit #6 with "She Wants to Dance With Me".
