If you've ever wondered what it would feel like to be simultaneously battered and caressed by a wind tunnel, these ladies will gladly help you pursue that inquiry.

Justin Timberlake brought sexy back. And forth. And back. And forth… all night long at the Hollywood Palladium after the Grammys. He rocked my body, rocked my world, rocked my holy-shit-Justin-Timberlake-is-back year. View Now

These songs go the extra mile and don't stop at just blatantly saying "I'll make love to you" like Boyz II Men's "I'll Make Love To You" or "Talk dirty to me" like Poison's "Talk Dirty To Me". No, these sex songs are more subtle, more painful, and more exciting when you thank your lucky stars you're not the one being sung about. View Now
