Ok, in response to Tony's desperate plea for everyone to start one thread this week, here's my contribution. I was recently talking with Dennis about Leonard Cohen's song I'm Your Man and I told him that I thought it was "possibly the sexiest song ever written." Den suggested I started a thread asking others what song they thought was the sexiest of all time and I demurred, saying I didn't want to start a thread like that. But here I am, doing what I said I wouldn't do.
So what do you think, fellow TGers? What song gets your heart beating and your mind racing when you hear it? Not a sweet, romantic love song, but more of a hubba-hubba, 'I need a cold drink' -type song. What song makes you swoon?

Okay, I'll bite. And I mean that in the best way possible. Here's my vote for the all-time sexiest song, done by one of the great singers in history.

Tough question. Each of us will likely hark back to a song that was playing when we first .. ummm ... you know... LOL since it would be closely associated with that in our minds.
With that said, I have 2 to choose from.
Tanya Tucker, Little things
Celine and Barbara Streisand, Tell Him
Both of these speak volumes to me but we won't go into why. LOL
.
Ok, maybe I'm a hopeless romantic.
Chas, Tony, You criminal types, no 'little' comments from the jail. LOL

Interesting thread here, Suz. I'm sure there are tons out there.
half the songs in the Rolling Stones oeuvre..." Fire & I'm on Fire" from
Springsteen. Let Me Be your Gigolo from Greg Brown
But these two are right up there...
