"Chocolate (Choco Choco)" is the debut single by German pop duo Soul Control, released in 2004 from their debut album Here We Go. The song was written and produced by Bruce Hammond Earlam and Ned Irving. The refrain interpolates parts of "La Bamba".

A "New Mixes" maxi CD with multilingual remixes was also released which included versions in Spanish, French and German to increase the song's appeal. The song was a top 5 hit in Germany, Austria and Switzerland and also made number 25 on the UK Singles Chart. In 2007, a Japanese version was released under the title "Oideyo Goringo" (おいでよゴリンゴ) and was the main theme of the FujiTV production Ponkikki.[1] In Germany their sales exceeded 'gold' status and in the Philippines, exceeded 'platinum'[2]
