The 50 Sexiest Songs of All Time

Billboard ^ | February 11, 2010

[ConservativeStatement]

"Sexy" is a relative term -- one man's baby-makin' music might be his woman's soundtrack for a snoozefest. But there's nothing subjective about this list. These are, literally, the 50 most popular songs about sex ever, as based on each song's performance on the Billboard Hot 100 chart (from August 4, 1958 -- the inception of the Hot 100 chart -- through the Jan. 16, 2010 issue). Some songs are steamy slow-jams, some are hi-octane arena-rockers, but what they all have in common (and what got them on this list) is that the subject matter of each song is directly related to sex, in some way. No more, no less. Got it? Now let's knock some boots.

I'm at a Motorhead concert, maybe 10-12 years ago, and up close. Band is performing on stage, outdoor show. Next thing, I get pushed in the back and I hear “Lemmmmmmmmyyyyyy...” It is a rather large woman who is rushing to the stage. Lemmy looks and mumbles into the mic a very obvious "Oh s-—!”

True, as was Rock Hudson.

The funny thing is that Johnny came out rather matter of factly, without a fuss, in People magazine. The reporter asked him about his personal life, and he simply mentioned that he had been with man for many years. No need to go on talk shows or hold rallies.

When I was a teeny bopper (and this will date me), my friends and I used to swoon over “Wild Thing”.

Ha! that makes you a troglodyte! LOL

[BookmanTheJanitor]

Pretty much anything on Ferry’s “Boys & Girls” album qualifies. You can throw in most of Roxy Music’s “Avalon” too.

Amen...Ferry/Roxy Music doesn't have one song on the crappy list (probably a blessing). I especially like "Windswept" by Ferry with Sandborn's sax and David Gilmour's guitar.

How could they miss this Little Feat classic?

Spotcheck Billy got down on his hands and knees
He said “Hey momma, hey let me check your oil all right?”
She said “No, no honey, not tonight
Comeback Monday, comeback Tuesday, then I might.”

I said Juanita, my sweet Jaunita, what are you up to?
My Juanita
I said Jaunita, my sweet taquita, what are you up to?
My Juanita

Don’t want nobody who won’t dive for dimes
Don’t want no speedballs ‘cause I might die tryin
Throw me a line, throw me a line
‘Cause there’s a fat man in the bathtub with the blues
I hear you moan, I hear you moan, I hear you moan

Billy got so sad, dejected, put on his hat and start to run
Runnin’ down the street yellin’ at the top of his lungs
All I want in this life of mine is some good clean fun
All I want in this life and time is some hit and run

I said Juanita, my sweet Jaunita, what are you up to?
My Jaunita
I said Jaunita, my sweet taquito, what are you up to?
My Juanita

Put my money in your meter baby so it won’t run down
But you caught me in the squeeze play on the cheesy side of town
Throw me a dime, throw me a line
‘Cause there’s a fat man in the bathtub with the blues
I hear you moan, I hear you moan, I hear you moan

Plus, how could they leave out “Why Don’t We Do It In the Road,” by Lennon and McCartney, 1968? What an outrage.

[SMARTY]

I can’t open the link. Is “Fire Down Below” on the list?

[Phlap]

Strangers in the Night by

If it was about sex why wasn't this on the list?

I have a lot of luck with My Love Is Like A Tire Iron .

[joethedrummer]

Zamfir, King of the Pan Flute. (Sound of hyperventilating in the background)

[Hoodat]

The one group I would have most liked to have seen live was “Little Feat” (w/ Lowell George, of course)

[ConservativeStatement]

Bob Seger? No, it didn’t make the list.
