Songs That Sex You Up

[Deleted]

Lenny Kravitz's "It Ain't Over 'Til It's Over" is sexy as hell.

Oh, and can I second Jennipoo's mention of Bruce Springsteen's "I'm On Fire" from a long, long time ago? Good God, that song is the hotness.

Aw, thanks Knessa. It's always nice when someone shares my tastes.

I actually came here to add "Try Me" by James Brown to the list. I'm so accustomed to the screaming, showboating James Brown that I never heard/realized this was him singing this song. We've been listening to our local station's R&B hour every Friday night and are really getting into the music.

It's such a sweet song.

Love a lot of these - Closer by NIN in particular - the opening tones of that song just sound like people are bumpin' and grindin'.

But I have to break from the pack on Wicked Game - I never liked it - although the video was good. The funny thing is I like Chris Isaak's music except for that one. For example, Baby did a bad bad thing - oh hell yes, she did, and she's about to do more bad stuff to you, and you'll like it.

Finish What Ya Started - Van Halen - Fun, playful, bring it on buddy.
I've got to see you again - Norah Jones - "Even though I know where you've been" - my last boyfriend in a nutshell and while he had MANY flaws, he was one sexy mofo.
Crash - Dave Matthews - "hike up your skirt a little more..."
I've Got you Under my Skin - Sinatra - obsession never sounded so appealing
You do something to me - Paul Weller - the confusion when emotion and lust intertwine- the touching part of sex, I guess
Casualty - Snake River Conspiracy - actually the whole album is hot
Quedate Aqui - Salma Hayek - holy crap - from that scene in Desperado...*blushes*
I'll be there - Escape Club - kinda sad - like the comedown of good sex with someone that it's just not working with otherwise
Broken Arrow - Robbie Robertson NOT Rod Stewart's mangled piece of crap. Deep low drumming and Robbie's deep rumbling voice...mmm. Plus it's just a nice a love song.
Music of the Night - aka Andrew Lloyd Webber and Charles Hart's ode to seduction from Phantom of the Opera. The song even has two climaxes for God's sake!

Nighttime sharpens, heightens each sensation
Darkness stirs and wakes imagination
Silently the senses abandon their defenses

Slowly, gently, night unfurls its splendour
Grasp it, sense it, tremulous and tender
Turn your face away from the garish light of day
Turn your thoughts away from cold, unfeeling light
And listen to the music of the night

Close you eyes and surrender to your darkest dreams
purge your thoughts of the life you knew before
Close your eyes, let your spirit start to soar
And you'll live as you've never lived before

Softly, deftly, music shall caress you
Hear it, feel it, secretly posess you
Open up your mind,
Let your fantasies unwind
In this darkness which you know you cannot fight
The darkness of the music of the night

Let your mind start a journey through a strange, new world
Leave all thoughts of the life you knew before
Let your soul take you where you long to be!
Only then can you belong to me

Floating, falling, sweet intoxication
Touch me, trust me, savour each sensation
Let the dream begin, let your darker side give in
To the power of the music that I write
The power of the music of the night

You alone can make my song take flight
Help me make the music of the night

Oooohhh--"Music of the Night"! Goosebumps!

Sardonictart, that's a great list!

Drive, by Melissa Ferrick. I've never been so turned on by a song in my life. Seriously, hot.

Holy hot, Batman! Thanks for that one!

I know it's old and a cliche, but I'll never get over "Not Enough Time" by INXS.

"Not Enough Time"- good choice!

You're very welcome. I get little shivers just thinking about it.

I kind of had a moment with "Lift Me Up" by Moby. Seriously, that song is really hot and.. intense, I guess you could say - possibly because I now associate it with a certain boy, but still.

Oh! And say word to "Drive" by Melissa Ferrick.

I heard Patti Smith's "Because the Night" yesterday--"Take me now, take me now, take me NOWWWW"!

It has to be Patti Smith, though, and not that milquetoasty Natalie Merchant version.
