How did you come up with the name Hot Chocolate?
Hot Chocolate was actually not my name.
It was someone from a record company which belonged to The Beatles.
When we first started, we sent in a piece of music...
- Actually, it was a cover version of Give Peace A Chance. - Right.
They loved it and they wanted to put the record out,
but we didn't have a name.
So a secretary in the record company was asked to come up with something,
so she came up with the Hot Chocolate Band.
In those days it was like Plastic Ono Band, Hot Chocolate Band.
Then we drew up the... We made it Hot Chocolate.
# Is it time for me to go?
# I don't know
# Did I hear you say you're not too sure of what we got any more?
# Once I had a gentle mood to help me
# But that is when I had you here beside me
# Now it's gone
# But in my mind, I know with time
# When all is said and done
# What we had could never end
# You'll always be a friend
# I can't regret
# The days I loved
# Being with you
# Ooh
# I just can't remember how it slipped away these things
# They just do
# And if I had my life to live all over
# I'd do it all again but make it better
# That's what I'd do
# Cos in my mind
# I know with time
# When all is said and done
# What we had
# Could never end
# You'll always be a friend. #
# We were together
# Since we were five
# She was so pretty
# Emma was a star in everyone's eyes
# And when she said she'd be a movie queen
# Nobody laughed
# Her face like an angel
# She could be anything
# Emmalene
# Emma, Emmalene
# I'm gonna write your name high on that silver screen
# Emmalene
# Emma, Emmalene
# I'm gonna make you the biggest star this world has ever seen... #
'My mother was an incredible woman.
'She came here with the immigration.
'People who came here in the '50s. She sent for me and, em...
'..instilled a lot of values and good things in my head.
'Unfortunately, I lost her at 19,
'but I kind of feel she's always been with me.'
# You know sometimes she'd come home so depressed
# I'd hear her crying in the back room feeling so distressed
# And I'd remember back when she was five
# To the words that used to make Emmalene come alive
# It was Emmalene
# Emma, Emmalene
# I'm gonna write your name high on that silver screen
# Emmalene
# Emma, Emmalene
# I'm gonna make you the biggest star this world has ever seen
# It was a cold and dark December night
# When I opened up the bedroom door
# To find her lying still and cold upon the bed
# A love letter lying on the bedroom floor
# It read
# Darling, I love you
# But I just can't keep on living on dreams no more
# I tried so very hard not to leave you alone
# I just can't keep on tryin' no more
# Emmalene
# Oh, Emmalene
# Oh
# Emmalene
# Oh, Emmalene... #
Here's a group who are off to the States very shortly,
but before they go, they're definitely going to sing
the number 20 sound. It's called A Child's Prayer -
here come Hot Chocolate.
# Say a little prayer, baby, 'fore you go to sleep
# Say a little prayer and give the lord thy soul to keep
# Say a little prayer, darlin'
# For all the people in the world
# That their hearts will be happy
# Filled with joy
# Say a little prayer for all those who are poor
# That they'll find peace of mind and the ones they adore
# Say a little prayer, baby
# For all those who have much more
# That they'll find it in their hearts to lend a helping hand
# Nobody goes to church on Sundays any more
# Is that why the world is fighting, filled with wars?
# Nobody goes to church or thanks the lord for what they eat
# Is that why half the world is starving
# Running out of necessities?
# I wonder
# Wonder if we're doing right
# Say a little prayer
# Say a little prayer, children
# So say a little prayer, baby
# For all the children just like you
# Growing like a flower in the morning dew
# Say a little prayer
# That they may grow to see
# A world full of love and harmony... #

'Fortunately for me, even when I was a young boy,
'I used to stand one place and dance, it was laziness,
'so I just developed that on-the-spot movement.'
# Oh, oh

The highest climber in this week's top 30 is from Hot Chocolate.
It's called OK, You Win.
Not only a high climber, but also a new entry at number 20.
# Do, do, do-do
# Just to admit one mistake
# That can be hard to take
# I know we've made them fall
# But only fools come back for more
# Being the fool I am
# I figured in all your plans, darling
# Your perfumed letters didn't say
# That you'd be leaving any day
# So you win again
# You win again
# Here I stand again
# The loser
# And just for fun
# You took my love and run
# But love had just begun
# I can't refuse her
# But now I know that I'm the fool
# Who won your love to lose it all
# When you come back
# You win again
# Do, do, do-do
# And I'm not proud to say
# I let love slip away
# Now I'm the one who's crying
# I'm a fool there's no denying
# When will my heartache end?
# Will my whole life depend on fading memories?
# You took the game this time with ease
# So you win again
# You win again
# Here I stand again
# The loser
# And just for fun
# You took my love and run
# But love had just begun
# I can't refuse her
# But now I know
# That I'm the fool
# Who won your love
# To lose it all
# When you come back
# You win again... #
What makes a good song?
Well, I think, you know, as a songwriter,
you have to be able to communicate
emotions from yourself to the listener.
I think if you do that right, they'll pick up on that
and then it becomes successful.
# Never could believe the things you do to me
# I never could believe the way you are
# Every day, I bless the day that you got through to me
# Cos, baby, I believe that you're a star
# Everyone's a winner, baby, that's the truth
# That's the truth
# Making love to you is such a thrill
# Everyone's a winner, baby, that's no lie
# That's no lie
# You never fail to satisfy
- # Satisfy - Let's do it again
# Never could explain just what was happening to me
# Just one touch of you and I'm aflame
# Baby, it's amazing just how wonderful it is
# That the things we like to do are just the same
# Everyone's a winner, baby, that's the truth
# That's the truth
# Making love to you is such a thrill
# Everyone's a winner, baby, that's no lie
# That's no lie
# You never fail to satisfy
- # Satisfy - Let's do it again
# Let's do it again
# Let's do it again... #
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
And now something a little bit different from Hot Chocolate.
It's from the musical concept Dear Anyone,
and it's called I'll Put You Together Again.
# When you can't take any more
# When you feel your life is over
# Put down your tablets and pick up your pen
# And I'll put you together again
# If your faith withers away
# If God can't bring you your answer
# Write me a letter
# I'll read it and then
# I'll put you together again
# Put us together, together again
# Put us together again
# When things look hopeless
# Just write me and then
# I'll put you together again
# If there's no light anywhere
# And you've got no-one to turn to
# I'll lead you out of the darkness and then
# I'll put you together again... #
APPLAUSE
# As the bomb goes neutron
# So for you and I
# Will the finger on the button decide
# If we live or if we die?
# The more you think, think
# The more you blow your mind
# The more you search for a peace here
# The less that you will find
# Dance
# Mindless boogie till we drop Don't stop
# Music is the drug
# Music is the drug we're searching for
# Mindless boogie, boogie, boogie, boogie
# Boogie, boogie, boogie, don't stop
# Mindless boogie, boogie, boogie, boogie
# Boogie, boogie, boogie till we drop
# Dance
# 900 or more
# Commit mass suicide in Jonestown
# Very strange, very strange
# More than ever
# The world needs God's helping hand
# Confused, we don't seem to know
# What we're doin'
# Like a blind man
# Spinnin' round in space
# Dance
# Mindless boogie till we drop Don't stop

# What was the ship from outer space?
# What was this creature that appeared before my eyes?
# Was it good?
# Was it evil?
# On the ship from other skies
# I was frightened

- So you spent 230 weeks altogether in the British singles charts. - Mm.
Now, that must be a record.
Well, I think it was successful
because basically you have to have a writing talent.
Luckily, I had that.
So we had our own kind of material to work with.
We didn't have to rely on other people
supplying us with material, so it helped to roll over nicely.
I think that's the most important thing
for any band to survive a long time.
Well, we've got a brilliant audience,
we've got a marvellous show,
and who better to start our show this evening?
A big, warm welcome for Hot Chocolate.
- Yes! - CHEERING
