"Hot Line to Heaven" is a song co-written and performed by English girl group Bananarama. The song appears on their second, self-titled album and was released as a single in the UK in 1984.

In its album version, "Hot Line to Heaven" is a seven-plus-minutes mid-tempo pop song. It was edited to about three-and-a-half minutes for its single release. After Bananarama recorded the soundtrack song "The Wild Life" (from the film of the same name), the edited version of "Hot Line to Heaven" was pressed onto the Bananarama album in order to make room for the late-addition of "The Wild Life". This was only a temporary pressing, however, as Bananarama's track listing was restored several months later, with the full version of "Hot Line to Heaven" intact.

The single did not perform well on the charts and got very limited release outside of UK. As was the case with the Bananarama album, the dark lyrical content did not meet with mainstream acceptance and became the group's lowest charting UK single since their debut "Aie a Mwana", however it was the fourth release from the album.

The music video features the girls trying to persuade a record executive to listen to their demo tapes. When they eventually show up as angels in his hallucinations, he relents.
