Continental is an album by the British band Saint Etienne, originally released only in Japan.

Described by band member Bob Stanley as "a patchwork more than a compilation",[2] it includes previously released material such as the UK hit "He's on the Phone" as well as curios like their cover of the Paul Gardiner song "Stormtrooper in Drag".

Many of the tracks were recorded in 1995–97, when the band was taking a break to work on other projects.

In 2009, the album was released in the UK for the first time as part of the band's back catalogue reissue series.

All tracks are written by Bob Stanley and Pete Wiggs, except where indicated.The liner notes list the album's personnel as follows:
