People''s Songs - The Story of Modern Britain in 50 Records

Beginning with Vera Lynn's 'We'll Meet Again', a song that reassured a nation parted from their loved ones by the turmoil of war, and culminating with the manic energy of 'Bonkers', Dizzee Rascal's anthem for the push and rush of the 21st century inner city, this title takes a tour of our island's pop music, and asks what it means to us.
