NYC is probably the tackiest new year celebration out of all the major cities now. Was more about business sponsorships and advertising than actual tradition of celebrating the new year together.

NY as one of the biggest cities in the world, has now become the most boring and unexciting place to celebrate the New Year. Time for a change.🎉🎉

Absolute disgrace of a new year. Everything that is wrong with America

[kwttrucker]

I wish I could watch this video live, just listening the natural environment there, I dont like any TV channels where they keep screaming all the time (BLA-BLA-BLA! WA-WA-WA!) and then they cut the video after the song New York New York

In a few short weeks the inmates are running the asylum.

How do these people have so much time to go into. Ew York city. That’s literally hours and hours standing around. Smdh

[iPandai]

introducing the worlds blandest countdown
bring back the 2011 one smh

[MaxBetancourt-veik]

I think if they let things be more natural instead of picking out actors to kiss each other, especially gay couples every year, no offense to the gay, but this is clearly propaganda for the last five years they always pan out to guys kissing

Lmfao, first time I've decided to watch "the ball drop" - this is the lamest thing kve ever seen 😭😂 nothing happens but you get a million adverts and sponsorships and some Z list celebrities 😂

[louisemiller]

Awful looks as boring as watching paint dry
