Here we are with another music post of mine. I’ve been thinking recently about what makes a song sexy. Is is the voice or instrumentation? Seductive lyrics or sultry hook? Whatever it is that is what I wanted to ask everyone. Which song do you consider the sexiest? Is it an oldie that is still as passionate as ever? Or a modern track of saucy content. Please give your opinions as I really want to know.
My personal top pick for sexiest song is Wicked Game by Chris Isaak. With his crooning voice and moody bass, it is the definition of lovelorn and seductive passion. And if that wasn’t enough, there is also the famous music video that accompanied it, featuring Isaak frolicking on a beach with the lovely Helena Christensen.

Tina Turner – Goldeneye. The beat and her voice make it sexy.

Ooh, I love that video. I don’t know if this song is the sexiest one but it always gets me in the mood:
Turn Me On by Norah Jones (great video – https://youtu.be/IT0U1og5sC4)
Note: When I first read the title of this post the very first song that came to mind was “I’m Too Sexy” by Right Said Fred. LOL!

I don’t know of a definitive sexy song but right now I thought of The Weeknd’s “Earned It”, Sam Smith’s “Nirvana”, Citizen Cope’s “107 Degrees” and Johnny Stimson’s “So.Good.”

Depends on the mood and what kind of sexy you are looking for… For example So Hott by Kid Rock and Closer by Nine Inch Nails. I could go on and on with all kinds of different sexy songs though.
