Hot Chocolate

While Hot Chocolate were never as popular in the United States as they were in the U.K.--where the group was a consistent chart presence for several decades--the multi-racial British pop/soul/funk outfit scored a huge international hit with 1975's "You Sexy Thing." Having been used in numerous films (most notably 1997's THE FULL MONTY, which prompted a re-release and remix of the single), the infectious disco-tinged funk number has had remarkable staying power, and is undoubtedly the band's best known and most beloved song.
