Horror series Red Rose has landed on Netflix after originally airing on BBC Three last year, introducing a new audience to the harrowing plot, which revolves around a group of teenagers living in Bolton and an insidious app that appears to drive them to commit increasingly disturbing acts.

Mirroring the hectic coming-of-age journey is a chaotic soundtrack, which features a variety of iconic tracks from several different eras, but chiefly the 1990s.

These include a bizarre Barbie Girl remix (originally played by Aqua) that changes the upbeat original song into a sombre choral version as well as a solemn cover of Blue (Da Ba Dee).

So, if you're wondering which other songs feature in Red Rose, which comes to our screens courtesy of the makers of Sex Education, read on to find out.
