As much as we've all bemoaned 2016 as a rough year,Poland no one was probably as happy to be done with it as superstar Mariah Carey after some technical glitches caused her performance on Dick Clark's New Years Rockin' Eveto descend into chaos and awkwardness.

Things got off to a rough start as Carey seemed lost when her hit song "Emotions" started playing, telling her back-up dancers to "just walk me down" and saying "Well, Happy New Year."

And it went downhill from there.

Carey said, "We can't hear," and then just seemed to... give up. "I say let the audience sing," Carey helplessly offered, holding the mic out to fans while she awkwardly strutted the stage.

A frustrated Carey said at one point, "I'm trying to be a good sport here," before making a half-hearted attempt to lip synch for "We Belong Together."

And then, after an excruciating five minutes, it came to a close with Carey giving the brush off that 2016 so richly deserved.

Carey seemed to shrug it all off with a tweet sent not long after the performance because, well, she's right: it happens.

The more cynical viewers pointed out it could be a ruse to raise interest in her current reality show, but whatever the case, 2016 now has the exclamation point it earned.
