Following on from last week's poll and inspired by 'Diet Pepsi' making the top 10 this week, here is a list of top 20 hits named after soft drinks (and yes I'm including hot drinks in the list and I've also taken the liberty of including chocolate - basically something you would go into a bar and ask for that's non-alcoholic). Hopefully I haven't missed anything obvious but feel free to let me know if I haven't included your fave, though the criteria is that the whole title has to be a soft drink and it needs to have charted in the UK top 20.

 

Shame Lizzo's 'Juice' didn't peak higher than #38. I toyed with the idea of including 'Frozen Orange Juice' (a #10 hit from 1969) but you can't drink it if it's frozen!

Addison Rae and All Saints only for me but do quite like the Kylie, Kelis and Major Lazer ones too but not enough for a vote.

Voted for my top 5:

 

The 1975 - Chocolate (#19, 2013)

All Saints - Black Coffee (#1, 2000)

Garbage feat. Tricky - Milk (#10, 1996)

Kelis - Milkshake (#2, 2004)

Kylie Minogue - Chocolate (#6, 2004)

I always thought soft drinks were fizzy drinks?

 

I like milkshake by kelis and black coffee by all saints the best from them.

 

Didn’t Chico have a song called Coca Cola bottle or something?

How about Alma Cogan's Xmas epic Never do a Tango with an Eskimo :lol:

All Saints & Kylie, thought Kelis’s isn’t too bad.

Didn’t Chico have a song called Coca Cola bottle or something?

 

He did, it was called 'Curvy Cola Bottle Body Baby' but peaked outside the top 40 at 45.

Addison, Camelphat, All Saints & Garbage

what about Blur - coffee & tv??

too bad Lana del Rey's Cola was never a hit, with the classic opening line

of "my pu**y tastes like Pepsi Cola" :D

You're right but the term "soft" for drinks means non-alcoholic. The term is more commonly used for a fizzy drinks but has a generalised meaning to be anything without alcohol. Alcoholic drinks often have "hard" in front of them in other countries around the world e.g. hard cider in the US or hard soda.

I think adding the two “chocolate” songs is a bit of a stretch really.

 

Supersister is obviously the star of this list, All Saints a distant second.

What about Espresso?

What about Espresso?

Damn, how did I miss that :lol: if any mods can add it to the poll that would be good.

what about Blur - coffee & tv??

When was the last time you went to a bar and ordered a "Coffee & TV"?

I did acknowledge it was a bit of a stretch! Just wanted to get a couple more options in. I'm annoyed I forgot about Espresso though :(

It’s gotta be Supersister, Coffee! Such a classic.

All Saints

Kylie

Kelis

It’s gotta be Supersister, Coffee! Such a classic.

For me too. :)

It’s gotta be Supersister, Coffee! Such a classic.

Can't believe they've only got 5% of the votes :( thought this was the Buzzjack who loved camp pop music!
