We are, of course, talking about those crowds, who'll once again line the streets as the spectacular procession lights up the Big Apple.
Kelly Rowland, Carrie Underwood and classic rockers Foreigner are just some of the names providing the soundtrack to the parade, which will, as ever, surprise and bewilder in equal measure with some very eye-catching floats.
