STOP in the name of Top Of The Pops!

STOP to play your favourite music assembled on one dynamic collection!

STOP and listen to Top Of The Poppers playing their versions of the latest, greatest chart-busting tunes!

STOP and treat yourself to Top Of The Pops 83.
Comments: Rod Stewart’s hit gives him a record tally of 18 Top of the Pops covers, shared only with Elvis. Abba’s song puts them on 16—but they would equal the record in 1982.
