As with previous instalments, the new season is accompanied by an eerie score once again composed by Blake Neely, as well as some of the best-loved songs of recent years, too.

Last year's finale ended on a Taylor Swift Anti-Hero high and pop fans will be pleased that Swift, Charli xcx and Chappell Roan all feature in this season's list of featured songs.

Season 5 picks up with Joe Goldberg (Penn Badgley) in New York City, where he's been living peacefully with his wife Kate (Charlotte Ritchie) for the past three years.

However, he soon reverts back to his old, obsessive habits, fixating on a new, mysterious character called Bronte (Madeline Brewer). Will he finally get his comeuppance this time around?

Across 10 episodes, we'll soon find out how our problematic protagonist winds up, all unfolding against a backdrop of songs that take us from the dulcet tones of Sade right through to indie classics from The xx.

Read on to find out what songs are featured in season 5 of You on Netflix.
