Question: What year did the English musician release the album that contained a song written as a New Year's Even singalong?
Context: "Auld Lang Syne (The New Year's Anthem)" is a song by American singer and songwriter Mariah Carey from her second Christmas album/thirteenth studio album, "Merry Christmas II You" (2010).  The second single from the album, an extended play consisting of nine remixes was released by Island on December 14, 2010.  Using the public domain poem "Auld Lang Syne" by Robert Burns, Carey along with Randy Jackson and Johnny "Sev" Severin (of RedOne) composed a new arrangement and re-titled it.  The track garnered a negative response from critics, all of whom disliked how Carey had re-composed the poem into a house music song.  An accompanying music video was released featuring a pregnant Carey singing in front of a background of exploding fireworks.  "Auld Lang Syne (The New Year's Anthem)" charted on the lower regions of the South Korean international singles charts and at number nine on the US Holiday Digital Songs chart. "Sonny's Dream" (also known as "Sonny") is a folk song written by Newfoundlander Ron Hynes in 1976.  It was first recorded by The Wonderful Grand Band on their eponymous album, but appeared re-recorded on their second album "Living in a Fog" in 1981.  Subsequent to the songwriter Ron Hynes' death, a crowd was organized for a singalong in Bannerman Park, St. John's in remembrance and celebration of his life. At Least for Now is the debut studio album by English musician, singer, and poet Benjamin Clementine.  It was recorded after Clementine gained critical acclaim with his two previous EPs.  Clementine returned to London in the new year to record his album, just as his career was starting to take off.  He moved to Kensington High Street with a friend he'd met in Tuscany then went back to Edmonton for a period of time until "At Least for Now" was completed.  The album won the 2015 Mercury Music Prize. William Ellis "Billy" Kinsley (born 28 November 1946, Anfield, Liverpool) is an English musician with The Merseybeats until 1966 (although he temporarily left the band both to form the Kinsleys) The group disbanded in January 1966 to resurface as a duo called The Merseys.  They recorded The McCoys' song "Sorrow" (also covered by David Bowie on his 1973 cover album, "Pin Ups") with the band before embarking on a solo career, where he recorded "Bye Bye Baby".  This song is not to be confused with a Four Seasons track of a similar title, but rather a typical Merseybeat tune.  Followed by the singles: "Annabella", and "You Make My Day".  Kinsley also undertook session work, which most notably included working for Apple Records (alongside George Harrison on at least one song for Jackie Lomax).  He also worked on the popular "Top of the Pops" record series, which contained anonymous cover versions of recent and current hit singles.  During this time he worked with fellow musician friend, Jimmy Campbell, and formed the band Rockin' Horse.  They recorded one album and toured England and Europe as the backing band for Chuck Berry. "New Year" is a song by British girl group the Sugababes, released as the second single from their debut studio album "One Touch" (2000).  The song was written by group members Siobhán Donaghy, Mutya Buena and Keisha Buchanan in collaboration with Cameron McVey, Jony Lipsey, Felix Howard and Matt Rowe, and produced by McVey, Lipsey and Paul Simm.  "New Year" is a pop and R&B ballad with influences of soul and alternative rock.  It features acoustic instrumentation, and the lyrics describe the experience of breaking up on Christmas Day. "Love Vigilantes" is a song by the English band New Order.  It first appeared as the opening track of their 1985 album "Low-Life".  The song is a departure from New Order's usual style in many ways.  Described by allmusic.com as "at its core a campfire singalong", "Love Vigilantes" is decidedly pop and shows inspiration from American country and folk music.  In a 2014 list compiled by "The Guardian", "Love Vigilantes" was ranked ninth in a list of the ten best New Order songs. "If You Believe" is a song by English musician George Harrison from his 1979 album "George Harrison".  Harrison began writing the song with Gary Wright on New Year's Day 1978 and finished the lyrics a month later while in Hawaii.  The song appears as the final track on "George Harrison".  Its lyrics are a statement on the power of faith to bring about a desired outcome. "Hari's on Tour (Express)" is an instrumental by English musician George Harrison, released as the opening track of his 1974 album "Dark Horse".  It was also the B-side of the album's second single – which was "Ding Dong, Ding Dong" in North America and most other territories, and "Dark Horse" in Britain and some European countries.  Among Harrison's post-Beatles solo releases, the track is the first of only two genuine instrumentals he released from 1970 onwards – the other being the Grammy Award-winning "Marwa Blues", from his 2002 album "Brainwashed". "Ding Dong, Ding Dong" is a song by English musician George Harrison, written as a New Year's Eve singalong and released in December 1974 on his album "Dark Horse".  It was the album's lead single in Britain and some other European countries, and the second single, after "Dark Horse", in North America.  A large-scale production, the song incorporates aspects of Phil Spector's Wall of Sound technique, particularly his Christmas recordings from 1963.  In addition, some Harrison biographers view "Ding Dong" as an attempt to emulate the success of two glam rock anthems from the 1973–74 holiday season: "Merry Xmas Everybody" by Slade, and Wizzard's "I Wish It Could Be Christmas Everyday".  The song became only a minor hit in Britain and the United States, although it was a top-twenty hit elsewhere in the world. M-Girls (), nicknamed Malaysia's version of S.H.E is a four-member Malaysian girl group that was formed in late 2000, mainly releasing Chinese New Year albums every year for the Malaysian Chinese community.  The group originally consisted of Queenzy Cheng Koon Si (莊群施), Angeline Khoo Yen Nee (邱燕妮 a.k.a. Ah Ni 阿妮, formerly known as Xiao Ni Ni 小妮妮), Crystal Ong Shir Ching(王雪晶), and Cass Chin Yan Zi (陳金燕), who left in 2005 to study but later came back in late 2012.  Their albums are sold in Malaysia, Singapore, China, Indonesia, the United States and in some other parts of the world.  In some countries, only their bootlegged albums can be found.  Due to the increased popularity of online streaming and unlicensed albums, their company StarMedia decided to stop producing Chinese New Year Albums by M-Girls, with their final Chinese New Year album titled "True Joy".  Their final performance as a group was on 23 February 2014, a couple of weeks after the release of their Mini Album, My Way.  Although Angeline moved to China to study, the remaining members continued to promote their latest album.  It was later confirmed that M-Girls would be releasing another CNY album for 2015 called 新春佳期 which translates to New Spring Holiday Pre-orders for their latest Chinese New Year album was announced through social media on 18 November 2016, titled 过年要红红 which roughly translates to The New Year Needs to be Red and will mark the first time Crystal has not released a Chinese New Year album since her debut in 1994.
