About these clean New Year's Eve songs

This clean New Year's Eve playlist is built for a mixed crowd: party anthems for the build-up and a few sentimental picks for after midnight. Songs that have explicit versions only appear here as an upload labelled clean or radio edit.

Clean means the swear words are removed — not that every song's themes suit every age. Clean uploads are labelled by whoever posted them. Preview before you play it to kids, and test it on your school's network (some schools block videos in YouTube Restricted Mode).
