TIMEOUT - 50 Best Songs

Post by Cicice »

TIMEOUT - 50 Sexiest Songs Of All Time: https://www.timeout.com/newyork/music/best-sexy-songs

Decent-ish list, not my kind of sexy though. I would have dropped "Sex With Me" for one of Kelly Rowland's songs ("Motivation" or "Kisses Down Low"). I think "I Feel Loved" is also one of Depeche Mode's sexiest or at least Danny Tenaglia's remix stretching Dave Gahan's vocals sensually and melancholically. Some dirty guitars can also hit the spot "Rub Till It Bleeds", "Pour Some Sugar On Me", "I Like The Way You Move" etc..

So, does any one of these songs get anyone Hot 'N' Horny?

1. Marvin Gaye - Sexual Healing

These are fun lists not meant to be taken too seriously I suppose, but how the heck did they leave off Elvis? What are his songs about if not these topics? Particularly Heartbreak Hotel on the breakup songs list.

My favorites off the top of my head for each category:
Sexy: FKA Twigs - Two Weeks
Love: Spiritualized - Ladies and Gentlemen We Are Floating in Space
Breakup: The Clash - Train in Vain

I suppose you're right. I'm not sure how Elvis or Ryan Adams was left off from Love and Breakups but hey ho! Some of the choices are quite a nice break from the popular picks.

I like the favourites. Train In Vain and Two Weeks in particular. Just for fun, on the top of my head I'll go for:
Sexy: Alex Gaudino ft Crystal Waters - Destination Calabria (UK Extended) (remember 2007?) ;)
Love: Booty Luv - Some Kinda Rush (Club Mix) (remember this?)
Breakup: Tinashe - Cold Sweat (the sensual breakdown is pretty darn sexy)

The 50 Best Gay Songs To Celebrate Pride All Year Long: https://www.timeout.com/newyork/music/best-gay-songs

So, where's Eminem? Just kidding! Although I am surprised no B52s ("Dirty Back Road") made it since they've also contributed music to the LGBT and anyone in the early beginnings which also became an influence to Deerhunter's music ("Helicopter").

1. Gloria Gaynor - I Will Survive
