1975: 10 Songs You Need To Hear Before Their New Album Drops

10. Chocolate

A large part of the joy of The 1975 is watching their evolution and a good place to start is the ultra-poppy "Chocolate".

Taken from the group's first album, "Chocolate" was the first 1975 track to break into the UK top twenty, giving the mainstream their first taste of the group.

The song's title is actually a euphemism for cannabis and tells the story of a group of young friends fleeing the police with a stash of drugs in their car.

The track pays homage to classic gangster movies with lines like "we've got guns hidden under our petticoats" and conjures wonderful imagery of a group of rag-tag teens evading the long arm of the law. We've either all been there or all wished we've been there.

Even though the band's style and lyrics content has changed radically since this song was released, "Chocolate" remains a firm favourite amongst the 1975 faithful. Despite the fact that nobody who wasn't born in Manchester could understand what they were saying.

The 1975's journey into superstardom began with this song, so it makes sense that you should start your journey there too.
