None of them
Song: NYE
Artist: Originally Perry Keyes, but this version is as performed by Missy Higgins
Tabbed: Kate
Tuning: Standard
So different from the amazing, utterly brilliant original. This version really brings the
liveliness of the lyrics and the tune to the fore. It truly feels like a new year's song.
