"Chocolate Girl" is the fourth song released as a single from the album Raintown by the Scottish group Deacon Blue. The single version differed from the album version of the song. It is a remix by the American mixer Michael Brauer, which adds a longer musical interlude in the middle of the song and gives greater emphasis to B.J. Cole's pedal steel guitar in parts of the song.Шаблон:Citation needed

The track reached No. 43 in the UK Singles Chart in July 1988, spending seven weeks in the listing.[1][2]

In an interview given to the Daily Record in 2012, songwriter Ricky Ross explained that "Chocolate Girl" was "about someone’s relationship which sounded bad. I don’t really like sexist love songs, that awful song by Eric Clapton, "Wonderful Tonight". There’s a song by Prefab Sprout which says the same thing, called "Cruel", which I love".[3] The Herald also spotted "Chocolate Girl’s dysfunctional Don Juan" running through the lyrics.[4] Paddy McAloon claimed in a 1990 interview that the band approached him to contribute vocals to the song.[5]
