69 Sexiest Songs ... Ever! 14 - 6

Nina Simone, 'Sugar'Once upon a time, "sugar" was an innocent euphemism for a kiss -- like your auntie asking you to give her some sugar. But things changed in '67, when soulful jazz singer Nina Simone passionately sang about the sweet stuff women longed for between the sheets. You'll never pucker up for Aunt Mildred the same way again. -- KD
Sexiest lyric: "Well I want a little sugar in my bowl/ I want some steam on my clothes"Need something sweet?

TLC, 'Red Light Special'History gives more credit to TLC's party starters (and fire starting), but it's their 1995 slow jam that got our nature rising. Let's not forget its accompanying video, in which T-Boz, Chilli and Left Eye beat a crew of muscular hunks in a game of strip poker. -- DB
Sexiest lyric: "I'll let you touch it if you like to go down/ I'll let you go further if you take the southern route"Turn on the 'Red Light'
12.
Def Leppard, 'Pour Some Sugar'A No. 1 hit in 1988, Def Leppard's diabetes-inducing arena-rock anthem is still a reliable way to get into someone's acid-washed jeans. The opening guitar riffs will forever conjure images of teased hair and a halter top balled up on the front seat of a Chevy El Dorado. -- JP
Sexiest lyric: "Pour your sugar on me, oh, I can't get enough/ I'm hot, sticky sweet from my head to my feet yeah"
11.
Rick James, 'Give It to Me'When he wasn't busy slapping Charlie Murphy or burning women with hot crack pipes, the '80s funk-master crafted booty-shaking masterpieces that brought out the superfreak in everyone. How can you refuse this cocaine cowboy's sexy command? He's Rick James, bitch! -- JP
Sexiest lyric: "Give it to me, baby (Give it to me, baby)/ I betcha I'll make you holler you've had enough"

The Art of Noise, 'Moments in Love'The avant garde synth-poppers created one of the most noted soundtracks for horizontal groovin' in the '80s. It's 10 minutes of instrumental, electronic utopia -- more than enough time for most of us to get our grooves on. -- JW
Sexiest lyric: "Do do do do/ Do Do Do/ do DO do do do do do do do..."

Britney Spears, 'I'm a Slave 4 U'This 2001 hit encompassed what Brit was at the top of her game: precocious, provocative and oozing sex from every teenage pore. For someone claiming she was a virgin at the time, she sure had that whole heavy-breathing, sex-kitten thing down to a tee. -- KD
Sexiest lyric: "Baby, don't you want to dance up on me?/ Cuz I'm in need"
8.
LL Cool J, 'Doin' It'When it comes to hip-hop love songs, LL Cool J is indeed the G.O.A.T. In 1995, he laid rights to the crown once more with a jam to dance and get busy to. The come-ons from his co-spitter LeShaun are so believable, we can almost picture Queen's finest licking his lips in the booth. -- DB
Sexiest lyric: "I guarantee shorty it's real/ Baby stick it out/ Here comes the man of steel."

Led Zeppelin, 'Whole Lotta Love'Between Robert Plant's snakelike hips and Jimmy Page's 10-story riffs, no one can escape this monstrous rocker's animal magnetism. Moaning and snarling while he begs to "be your backdoor man," Plant exudes the bottomless lust that made him the most notorious groupie-slayer of the '70s. -- JP
Sexiest lyric: "Way, way down inside .../ I'm gonna give you every inch of my love"
6.
Barry White, 'Love Serenade'Music doesn't get more baby-makin' than this. Barry's baritone drawl helped fertilize a million eggs in the sexy '70s, and no modern R&B crooner -- not even that dude from Boyz II Men -- can make a woman's toes curl faster. Usher, take notes. -- MTC
Sexiest lyric: "I'm taking the receiver off the phone/ Because baby, you and me ... This night .../ We're gonna get it on"
