[You’re Making Me High](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ggULcgl8V8w) by Toni Braxton - this song is pure, humping, pumping sex.

Ok, people might think I’m weird, but… _Physical_ and _Suck_ by Nine Inch Nails. I really enjoy the whole Broken EP, though it’s those two songs in particular that do it for me!

Prince’s “Little Red Corvette”, closely followed by darn near anything off of _1999_.

I did think of another:

Lee Wiley singing _Here in My Arms_.

Good choice, but I think [“International Lover”](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fendRDZI8NY) and [“Lady Cab Driver”](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2vjRw9Wbc3I) go one better.

Keeping the Prince vibe going, it doesn’t get much sexier than [“If I Was Your Girlfriend”](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D4C9qR9wJVw) and [“Do Me Baby”](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=StxizUfvtig).

This might seem like a weird offering, since the song didn’t make me hot as much as it made me feel the singer’s blistering heat, but the first time I heard Melissa Etheredge’s “Somebody Get Me Some Water”, I thought my radio would melt.

I’ve always found “Smoke” by Afghan Whigs to be an incredibly sexy song.

I’ve been working on this aria in my singing lessons and I never thought of it as sexy, just regularly romantic. It \*definitely \*wouldn’t sexy be the way I stumble through it.

Yep. I just listened to them both… Bobbie is good… Dusty is better.

Ooops? Wow, I thought I was posting to Cafe Society. Out of curiosity what was my spelling typo? Dang it, I knew I was way too tired to be on the computer yesterday.

“Slow Ride” by Foghat can still get me going.

You typed, “Man that song it hot.” I just assumed you were so overcome with, ah, heat, that you didn’t notice it. Thankfully, a cooler head prevailed. 😉

My contribution is _Moondance_ by Van Morrison … but I admit I may be influenced by its use in _An American Werewolf in London_. Also, when I saw your OP, my first thought was, “well, there’s a reason Tarantino used it in Pulp Fiction!”

This 🆒  
When I saw the thread title, it’s the first song I thought of.

**Gris-Gris** by Dr John. The whole album, but particularly the semi-title track, Gris-Gris Gumbo Ya ya.

Hmmm, I guess I find Voodoo sexy. OK.
