OT: Sexiest Song

[cbraarj]

Reasons Earth, Wind and Fire !!!

 

[FairView]

A couple of excellent Maroon 5 songs from the Songs About Jane Album - a great, great, CD from before they became so pop heavy. The first one has some great intimacy lyrics, the second talks about knowing and loving someone so deeply.

Jimi Hendrix, GOAT guitarist

Comin' to getcha....

 

[Huskee11]

Melissa Etheridge

I`m the Only One

Pretty steamy video!

 

[Replicant]

This singer has a fairly unique voice, pretty sexy to me. The band was kind of a big deal around the time I started college, but you don't really hear them mentioned anymore.

The sax is sexy:

 

[Waquoit]

The opening of "Rhapsodie Espagnole" is more lush and sensual.

That piece brings me back. It was the closer of the first classical concert I ever attended (BSO @ Tanglewood in 2001). And I don't believe I've seen it programmed anywhere since.

The sax is sexy:

Thanks, I haven't thought about Gato Barbieri in years. And I had Caliente! on vinal. I'm going right to Spotify.

That piece brings me back. It was the closer of the first classical concert I ever attended (BSO @ Tanglewood in 2001). And I don't believe I've seen it programmed anywhere since.

People still seem to want to hear the old warhorses: Rachmaninoff's 3rd piano concerto, Beethoven's 3rd or 5th piano concerto or his 3rd symphony, Brahms' 2nd concerto's or his 3rd symphony etc. When it comes to that lush impressionistic stuff though people would rather hear that bombastic Berlioz Symphonie Fantastique. I'd personally rather hear Debussy's La Mer or the Ravel.

I know this is a group and not an individual, but there's just something about Susanna Hoffs...

You Betcha!!!

 

[augustaTC]

I'm kind of partial to any rendition of Iko Iko

 

[Dove]

 

[cohenzone]

 

[Sargassoc]

Phyllis Nelson, "Move Closer"

 

[Orangutan]

It's a bit on the nose, but still...I think this remix is even sleazier (in a good way!) than the original)

 

[Sargassoc]

Melissa Ferrick, "Drive"

 

[Orangutan]

so sexy it was banned by the BBC!

Also, there's this

 

[Orangutan]

Good shout, but as a Kylie fan, I think this is probably her sexiest song.

 

[Bigboote]

If we're opening it up to orchestral works, I'll offer Hilary Hahn's (later) rendition of Prokofiev's first violin concerto:



And Akiko Suwanai's Sibelius:

 

[McFly]
