Top 10 Sexiest Songs of All Time

Ladies, turn down the lights and pour yourselves a glass of wine, because we’re going to talk about sexy songs.

Oh yes, we want to know what’s on your bump-and-grind playlist. Why do we want to know this? Eh…well because ‘Physical’ by Olivia Newton-John has just been named the sexiest song of all time in a poll carried out by Billboard, the American Music Chart. Yes, really. We swear we’re being serious.

Basically, we want to see if there genuinely are people out there who would happily de-pant themselves and get it on with Olivia singing about ‘intimate restaurants’ and ‘suggestive movies’ in the background.

As for get-it-on songs, here are the top ten songs that the Her.ie team find to be quite hilarious/sexy-in-a-weird-way…

10. “Underneath Your Clothes” by Shakira:

Shakira likes to reward herself by taking off a man’s clothes. Fair enough. And while her voice doesn’t exactly inspire the most amorous of thoughts (read: she sounds a bit like a distressed donkey) there’s just something about this song.

9. “Freak Me” by Another Level:

The lyrics to this song are completely cringe-worthy and to be honest, we’re a little ashamed of the fact that we know all the words, but you know yourself – you just can’t help but belt it out when a creepy DJ randomly plays it on a night out.

8. “The Thong Song” by Sisqo:

It’s a song that pays homage to the humble thong and the backside that it is covering. If that’s not sexy, we don’t know what is.

7. “You Sexy Thing” by Hot Chocolate:

Sorry Justin Timberlake, but nothing brings sexy back faster than a bitta Hot Chocolate. Play this song at your own risk. Why? Well, when men are within earshot of it, they tend to re-enact that famous scene from The Full Monty.

6. “Kiss From a Rose” by Seal:

In this tune, Seal compares his woman to a light, an addiction and a flower. He’s a charmer, isn’t he?

5. “Pour Some Sugar on Me” by Def Leppard:

If you ever intend on borrowing some sugar from your neighbours, it’s probably a good idea not to sing this at them. They might get the wrong idea.

4. “You Shook Me All Night Long” by AC/DC:

This is a ridiculously catchy song that you may find yourself singing in completely inappropriate situations. It’s grand, as long as people don’t pay attention to the lyrics…

3. “Let’s Get it On” by Marvin Gaye:

No sexy playlist would be complete without a bit of Marvin Gaye. Let’s Get it On is one of the most fundamentally sexy songs in the world. Fact.

2. “Closer” by Nine Inch Nails:

You want to do WHAT?! Like a WHAT?!?! If you're familiar with this song, you'll understand why we can't show you the video (it is NSFW). If, however, you're curious - feel free to YouTube it from the comfort of your own home.

1. “Cry to Me” by Solomon Burke:

Yes ladies, it’s that tune from that film. Dirty Dancing. Oh yes. The romance, the passion, refusing to let anyone put Baby in the corner – we love it!
