69 Sexiest Songs ... Ever! 34 - 25

    INXS, 'Need You Tonight'

    How hot was Michael Hutchence? The man swaggered around shirtless in skin-tight leather pants like Jim Morrison reincarnated -- and even made a perm work. No one knew what "your moves are so raw" meant in '87, but Mike made it sound so very dirty. -- JP

    Sexiest lyric: "I need you tonight, 'cause I'm not sleeping/ There's something about you girl, that makes me sweat"

      Liz Phair, 'Flower'

      Liz let all her dirty-minded lust hang out on this semi-spoken-word come-on. Most of the lyrics are unprintable on a family-friendly Web site, but suffice it to say that indie record store clerks everywhere got their glasses all fogged up. -- JP

      Sexiest lyric: "Your face reminds me of a flower, kind of like you're underwater/ Hairs too long and in your eyes, your lips a perfect suck-me size"

      Liz plucks your petals

      • 32.

        Jodeci, 'Freek N You'

        While Boyz II Men were charming soccer moms with their on-bended-knee-R&B, Jodeci was bumping and pelvic-thrusting their way into said daughters' bedrooms. If the radio version wasn't clear enough, listen to the album for an extended, uh, love session. -- DB

        Sexiest lyric: "I can go on for days, but I couldn't go on for weeks babe/ I could even play with another body, but it wouldn't last 'cause I'm a freak"

        Let your 'Freek' loose

        • 31.

          Luther Vandross, 'Love Won't Let Me Wait'

          No one covers a song like Luther. With his silky tenor and trademark "woo-woos," he turned this 70's Major Harris tune into a quiet storm staple. Even the harp strings, saxophone solo and piano chords feel like foreplay on wax. -- DB

          Sexiest lyric: "I need your love so desperately, and only you can set me free / When I make love to you, we'll explo-o-o-de in ecstasy"

            Starland Vocal Band, 'Afternoon Delight'

            Some would call this ultra-whitebread 1976 hit "creepy" rather than sexy, and the repeated use of the word 'rubbin'' does make us think of old-people sex. But any song that actually inspired an entire country to indulge in some daytime action must have done something right. -- JP

            Sexiest lyric: "Rubbin' sticks and stones together makes the sparks ignite/ And the thought of rubbin' you is getting so exciting"

            Get your noontime nookie

            Will Ferrell lights the skyrockets!

            • 29.

              Patti LaBelle, 'Lady Marmalade'

              The fact that it's been covered by everyone from the O'Jays to Christina and Lil' Kim proves the staying power of this proto-disco funk jam. But in the hands of soul sister LaBelle, who originally released the song in '74, the bawdy tale about finding love in the Moulin Rouge is naughtier than anything Nicole Kidman could ever act up. -- MTC

              Sexiest lyric: "Voulez vous coucher avec moi, ce soir?"

              Hear how LaBelle used to do it

              See how Xtina, Mya, Kim and Pink do it now

                  The Beatles, 'I Want You'

                  Fourteen non-dirty words repeated over and over for eight minutes -- not exactly the recipe for hotness. But in the hands of John Lennon, the only remotely sexy Beatle, this '69 epic became a monster of lusty, panting desperation. -- JP

                  Sexiest lyric: "I want you, I want you so bad/ It's driving me mad, it's driving me mad"

                  Hear the Fab Four get freaky

                  • 27.

                    Tweet, 'Oops (Oh My)'

                    Most sexy songs describe an act between two people (or more), but it was Missy Elliott's protégé Tweet who made going solo attractive. She later said the hit was more about self-respect than stimulation, but we were all too busy stroking our "esteem" to notice. -- DB

                    Sexiest lyric: "I tried and I tried to avoid, but this thing was happening/ Swallow my pride, let it ride and party"

                    Keep your hands to yourself

                    • 26.

                      Massive Attack, 'Inertia Creeps'

                      Trip-hop doesn't get more sinister or seductive than this slow-burning groover from the group's 1998 'Mezzanine' album. Fuzzed out guitars, breathy raps and eerie electronics writhe together in a way that would even make Moby try to cop a feel. -- MTC

                      Sexiest lyric: "Recollect me darling, raise me to your lips/ Two undernourished egos, four rotating hips"

                      Creep to this

                      • 25.

                        The Notorious B.I.G., 'One More Chance'

                        Sure, he helped start the video cliché of a rapper lying in bed with two women. But we forgave him because of the way he flipped DeBarge's 'Stay With Me' into one of the coolest hip-hop player anthems ever. Plus, how many guys do you know that call themselves "ugly as ever" and still get the girl? -- DB

                        Sexiest lyric: "The sex was just immaculate/ From the back, I get deeper and deeper"

                        He's still the playa president
