I live in US now but it's still only real for me when I hear Big Ben.

Happy New Year London from New York City. Just Awesomeness. Glad to see Big Ben is still alive and well.

[@MizMite2002]

So much for the climate.

[@imverycreative5819]

It was to the music but obviously you wouldn't be able to hear that

Nice but wasn’t that sort of short? I think we counted the ones we had in Sydney at 12 minutes at midnight. I think around 10 minutes for the one at 9pm (that we have for people with kids). While people sweltered waiting here for them they might have froze in other parts of the world.

[@muffinman8655]

Londons last 12 minutes aswell, just a shortened video

[@hollymartin193]

This isn’t the full video it should be 12 mins long

[@ayounglivelysoulinanoldtir3512]

heres how i see new year. everyone goes to partys, lets off fireworks at midnight &yells " yaaaay!, happy new year !", but do they ever stop & think, for a momment what they are realy celebrateing?. the deaths of millions more people, communities, in some parts of the world being devestated by tsunamis, tornados, eartsquakes or volcanic erruptions, thousands of people having their homes reposessed, & being thrown out to sleep rough, or die of exposure to the cold & damp, many disabled & unemployed people having their benefits stopped, thousands of women being raped, many left with unwanted pregnancies or H.I.V as a result, people lousing their jobs, people having their cars seized & crushed because they cant afford insurance, children being tortured & abused, all of these & many more such troubles happen every year. back in 2013, in the early hours of the new year ,my mam was standing in the street watching fireworks go off & wishing anyone who passed by a happy new year. by new year 2014 she was in her grave , having died of brain tumours 2 months earlier. sadly, there's no such thing as a truely happy new year, for most people !

Sydney has no choreography that goes with the music, just a bunch of uncoordinated fireworks
