Hot Chocolate - You Could've Been A Lady

About "You Could've Been A Lady"

"You Could've Been a Lady" is a song by the British soul band Hot Chocolate, written by Errol Brown and Tony Wilson. Written in 1969 and released as a single in 1971, it peaked at number 22 on the UK Singles Chart during a nine-week run.Although initially released by Hot Chocolate as a non-album single, the song later appeared on the 2009 reissue of Cicero Park.

In 1976, the band re-recorded the song for their Man to Man album. Boasting a fuller, heavier production than the 3:42 original, it runs for 4:25. Rather than the original single version, a 3:48 edit of the re-recording has appeared on all compilation albums issued both by the band and with various other artists.

"You Could've Been a Lady" has many similarities to "Why Don't You Quit" by American jazz musician Eddie Harris.
