Source-derived summary

Chilly was a German Eurodisco and rock band from 1978 to 1983. The members of Chilly were Ute Weber (lead singer), Brad Howell (singer), Werner Suedhoff (dancer), Andrea Linz (dancer), Sofia Ejango (dancer), and Oscar Pearson (dancer).

They were created and produced by the producer, composer, and book author Bernt Möhrle. Their debut album "For Your Love" included a music melody of the title song "For Your Love", recorded with an arrangement by Christian Kolonovits and Bernt Möhrle. The original "For Your Love" song was a Yardbirds hit released in 1965, written by Graham Gouldman. Möhrle added new lyrics and composed additional music to the arrangement "I Walk Alone" and the nearly 12-minute suite became an international disco hit. It remained on the Billboard dance club songs charts for 7 weeks peaking at number 38 in April 1979. His version was used and remixed among others by DJ Hell on the album Munich Machine. It was also re-released in 2006 by the French label D-Classics in an edited version called "4 Love" made by Dylan Petit, and in 2011 by Chocolate Puma feat. Colonel Red.

Editorial analysis

Why this record matters

“Chilly (band)” is worth following because a concise public description often conceals a longer documentary argument. Here, Chilly, band and German provides the most credible route into that argument.

Evidence profile

Named sources, stable identifiers and responsible institutions provide the strongest route from overview to verifiable evidence. The source revision retrieved here is dated Jun 19, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q725146. VIAF identifies the subject as 157888629. The Library of Congress control number is no2007040327. 2 of 2 selected statements include explicit references; 0 carry qualifiers and 0 use preferred rank. The first chronological checks are 1978, 1983, 1965 and 1979.

Critical limits

A concise general-reference account can conceal disagreements about scope, terminology or the weight assigned to individual sources. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
