Episode 5: It鈥檚 party time across the entire continent!

A special New Year's Eve party edition of Neil Hannon鈥檚 Europop.

It鈥檚 new years eve 鈥 and Neil Hannon is here to add a little Europop to your party soundtrack!

However 鈥 don鈥檛 expect non stop bangers and rampant familiarity 鈥 while this is still music designed to make you dance and have fun Neil is still 鈥 for the most part 鈥 indulging his love of the lost European gem. In this edition, there鈥檚 a sort of remix of Frederic Chopin (seriously), a little Stereo Total, a half French duet for Elton John and 鈥 of course 鈥 Abba. They have a song called 鈥楬appy New Year鈥 for goodness sake. in.

On the opening episode of series 2, he discovers an incredible 1980s Soviet Union aerobics soundtrack, revisits a gem from a Swedish rock act we鈥檇 all forgotten about, argues the case for pop acts taking up classical music and plays a little dance tune he鈥檚 really not quite sure about. From Daniel Ogden to Bert Kaempfert, from the sublime to the ridiculous, expect an hour of music which will make you wonder - where have you been all my life?
