Continually means "ongoing" while continuously means "constant"--differing degrees. I'd go with the former.

That'll be five dollars.
Let's get right to it.

You got me curious, so I checked on dictionary.com ...
They're very close, but continuously refers more to "at every point" whereas continually is "at every moment".

even tho' I just dissed "Goodbye Stranger", you may be right, since most of these tracks were singles, pretty much, except for the Dire Straits.

Oh wait --Parallel Lines is a damn fine LP too, and much less pretentious.
