Hot Love (Five Star song)
"Hot Love" is a 1990 single by British pop group Five Star, the second release for their new record label, Epic. Peaking at #68, this track would be the group's last appearance in the UK Top 75 to date. The group recorded the single in their new hi-tech studio that was built in the grounds of their family home, Stone Court, in Ascot, Berkshire. The single proved a flop, and the press were quick to pounce, claiming Five Star's career was rapidly fading. After the single's release, the album Five Star, was shelved by Epic, and merited only a U.S. release, although the album was made available in Britain on import towards the end of 1990. After a third single, "Shine" (released in 1991) failed to chart, the band left Epic and pursued a career in the United States. The video to the single was hardly shown on British TV. The video was shot in a mock coffee shop called "Joe's Bar", in which the band performed a dance routine. The group did promote the song on TV, appearing on the Terry Wogan chat show with a dance routine.[1] Track listings7" single, 7" postcard pack and cassette single:
