Hmm.. there aren't many songs that I would consider sexy. I tend to dismiss rather obvious 'sexy' songs as more crude than sexy, including the likes of Marvin Gaye's 'Sexual Healing' and Nine Inch Nails songs. And I love NIN, but not becauses I find them sexy. And also, Jeff Buckley's version of Hallelujah is tinged with such an incredible melancholy that I can't really find it sexy at all.

There is one song that I wouldn't have any problem calling sexy though, and that is Massive Attack's 'Angel'. That slow but unwavering rhythm blending in with a lovely voice crowing "her eyes... she's on the dark side..." rarely fails to send a shiver or two up my spine.

My girl didn't like Morphine at all.

Forget what I said before, here are my top two:

#1: "Enjoy the Silence" - Depeche Mode

#2: "Like Swimming" - Morphine
It's a lot like swimming,
first time over your head
It gets easier
when you move your arms and legs

As for Garbage, I like "#1 Crush" but the orgasm sounds at the beginning are too obvious for me. I like "Milk" better, but more for its trippy spaciness than sexuality.

OK...but didn't he only do one song?

IIDB seems to feature a superabundance of NINnies. Hooray!

Yet another: when they toured with Bowie, Uncle Trent played a really really heavy-breathing sax solo in between his set and Bowie's. Rrrrarrrrrrr.

I'd have to go with just about the entire INXS catalogue.

Michael Hutchence, wow!

Also, just about Love and Rockets song that Daniel Ash sings. He has a very sexy voice.

In the IWannaThrowYouDownAndFuckYouRightNow sense - "I Want You" by Cabaret Voltaire and "Closer" by NIN.

In the SlowSweetGrooving sense - "Let's Stay Together" by Al Green and "I've Been Loving You Too Long" by Otis Redding.

Some good songs mentioned already. I confess having a soft spot for Dire Strait's 'Romeo & Juliet'; but I think it would be considered more "bitter-sweet romantic" than "sexy"

I don't know of many that I would consider "sexy", but Natalie Imbruglia's voice(not so much the lyrics- just the voice) in "Torn" sure sounds hot to me.

I have a friend who says Joe Cocker's "You can leave your hat on" does it for her, as well as anything by Bowie.
