What is your top sexy song?


Mine is, without a doubt, Feelin' love by Paula Cole.  Heard it again yesterday.  It had been a while.   Heavy lyrics.

- "It Ain’t The Meat (It’s The Motion)", the 1974 version by Maria Muldaur.

- "I’m An Old Cowhand (From The Rio Grande)" (written by Johnny Mercer), by Dan Hicks & His Hot Licks, vocal by the sultry Maryann Price, one of my favorite singers.

 

Santa Baby by Eartha Kitt and "Baby Let Me Bang Your Box"--her piano. A song that might not have gotten out of New York.

“Ride” by Chris Standring and

”It’s Cold Outside” by just about any artist duets that have sung it. 

Hang on in There Baby by Johnny Bristol. Overtly sexual lyrics and that horn bridge is just killer.

 

@jomace: "Baby Let Me Bang Your Box" made it to San Jose, California in 1964. The city had a record store with headphones hooked up to turntables, and my friends and I rode our bikes there everyday for a week just to hear that song. The 45 was credited to Doug Clark And The Hot Nuts. Double entendre galore!

 

Jennifer Warnes - Rock You Gently.

Pat Benatar- Have it All, especially the end.

 

@immatthewj: Thanks for the reminder of Lucinda's "Essence", a fantastic pick. Her singing on the song is absolutely salacious (on the entire song, but especially when she sings "Please come find me and help me.....get f*cked up"), with lots of double entendre lyrics.

And musically the song is a deep, deep Bluesy Rocker. One of my very favorite songs of hers, and I've been a fan since seeing her live in the mid-80's in very small venues around Los Angeles, then getting her s/t Rough Trade album when it was released in 1988.

For a more romantic rather than sexual song, her "West" is as good as it gets. The song also features superb drumming by Jim Keltner (big surprise wink). On the same album (West) is the sweetly romantic "Where Is My Love", which brings me to tears with every hearing.

 

"I take off my watch and my earrings
My bracelets and everything
Lie on my back and moan at the ceiling
Oh my baby

Think about you and that long ride
I bite my nails, I get weak inside
Reach over and turn off the light
Oh my baby"

Right In Time/Lucinda Williams

@bdp24 , how about Hot Blood off of the Sweet Old World CD?  Or maybe the imagery that The Night's Too Long (from the self titled CD)  evokes?  (Not that I am a fan of Lucinda or anything like that, LOL.)

 

 

 

Dang @immathewj, another great one! In "Right In Time" Lu is very direct in her expressing her desires, ain’t she?!

And hearing "Hot Blood" always brings me back to those early shows I saw, with Gurf Morlix on guitar, Donald Lindley on drums (now RIP), and Dr. John on bass. Last time I saw that lineup was at The Troubadour. Lu was playing a big ol’ acoustic guitar, with a music stand sitting directly in front of her. On the stand was a 3-ring binder filled with 8-1/2 x 11 pages of paper, each with a song on it. As she and the band finished one song, she turned the page to the next song. Adorable. wink

 

Peligroso-Remix By NK and De La Ghetto. I thought that I may just add to the ever growing list that we have amassed here. This style of music may not be for everyone just an FYI.

Let me know what you think and have a great week out there.

For a bit more subtlety, how about “The Look of Love” performed by Dusty Springfield? 

My favorite sexy song is, well I have two by the same singer that definitely go together. It’s Teddy Pendergrass and the songs are Close the Door and of course followed by, Turn off the Lights.

Good choices, all around...

For  “The Look of Love” actually prefer Shelby Lynne's version over Dusty Springfield - its just sexier.

For a romantic dance with my wife, I can't beat "Wonderful Tonight "  by Eric Clapton ;-)

Great question!

Cheers,

 

    I know it was “Top Tune” but being a single old goat I’m ignoring Voltaire’s advice that “once is passion, twice is perversion”:

   1.  Melody Gardot & Sting say there may be “A Little Something”…

   2.  Roy Buchanan tries to control “Mrs. Pressure”

   2.  Diana Krall eggs me on with “Temptation”

   3.  Norah Jones says “Turn Me On”

   4.  Chris Isaac turns it up “In The Heat Of The Jungle”

   5.  Leonard Cohen steps in and suggests “I’m Your Man”

   6.  And in the end, the popular Luci states “Right In Time”, and she just “Can’t Let Go”…meow!  Will be looking for her Essence...thanks!

 

If you can’t let go, maybe try your kinky with Buddy’s Guy and Muddy Waters trying school girls with the devil in them.    We were talking sexy not romantic eh….I would like to see some title suggestions from Female members…

How about The Fruit Song (Don't Touch Me Plums) sung by Goldie Hawn in the movie The Duchess And The Dirt Water Fox?

Or Melanie’s Brand New Key?

Or Bessie Smith’s Need A Little Sugar In My Bowl?

Grateful Dead - Loose Lucy

(It don’t take much to get her on the ground)

As for sexy Lucinda songs can’t top Righteously:

”When you run your hand
All up and run it back down my leg
Get excited and bite my neck
Get me all worked up like that”

I've attended 500+ concerts, and the sexually charged atmosphere at a Sade concert is beyond comparison. 

+1 @audioman58   

Smooth Operator is hard to beat.

 

  In the Classical Music realm , the opening song in

Ravel Scherazade is as voluptuous as it gets 

For rock

Raspberries Go all the way

Paul McCartney Back seat of  my car. 

There’s no shortage of sexy songs, and Lucinda has certainly contributed her fair share. But ’Steamy Windows’ by Tina Turner definitely belongs on the list. So does Aaron Neville’s 1991 ’It Feels Like Rain’

"Down here the river meets the sea
In the sticky heat I feel you open up to me
Love comes out of no where, baby,
Oh, just like a hurricane
And it feels like rain"

Doesn’t get much hotter ... or wetter ... than that.

And it doesn't hurt that this is one of the beautifully performed, recorded, and  produced albums of all time.

Yep, Sade for sure - "No Ordinary Love" is a great track... many late night surrenders to that number, lol

 

“Undeniably” by Sananda Maitreya(formerly TTD
Off the album “Vibrator” I don’t think can be beat for sexy factor. 
Isley Brothers “Voyage to Atlantis” comes close 

Girl from Ipanema / Stan Getz is pretty sexy too 

Ring of Fire by Lera Lynn is super hot as well
