112 - Peaches And Cream (Official Music Video)

Essentially, the phrase “peaches and cream” is a nice way of referring to the down-and-dirty act. In the video, you get to see the guys from 112 giving us those smooth moves we crave as viewers. We also get some quite sensual moments on a silky bed. A lot to think about.

7. Dirrty – Christina Aguilera featuring Redman

Christina Aguilera - Dirrty (Official HD Video) ft. Redman

Given the title, it’s not immediately obvious that this is a sexy video. It is definitely a dirty one, though. Christina Aguilera does what most teen pop stars do to show they’ve grown up: make a song about sex. Watching her in a boxing match wearing little more than a bikini is enough to detract from the fact she looks like she needs to shower.

8. Give It To You – Jordan Knight

Jordan Knight - Give It To You (Official Video)

The way this song starts, it sounds like a day at the carnival. That vibe extends to the video where that is exactly what’s going on. What makes this video particularly sexy though, aside from the lyrics, is the faces and body movements Jordan Knight makes. It’s also nice that the cashier, in the beginning, gets the sexy guy in the end.

9. What’s Your Fantasy – Ludacris featuring Shawnna

Ludacris - What's Your Fantasy ft. Shawnna

Ludacris takes us on a tour around a plethora of fantasies. Between the dancing, previews, and inappropriate eating, this video shows up. If you were needing inspiration, he gives you a year’s worth of stuff to try out.

10. Whatever You Like – T.I.

T.I. - Whatever You Like [Official Video]

11. WAP – Cardi B featuring Megan Thee Stallion

Cardi B - WAP feat. Megan Thee Stallion [Official Music Video]

As controversial as it might have been when the song came out, the video really represented the feel of the song in an artistic way.

12. Partition – Beyoncé

Beyoncé - Partition (Explicit Video)

It might be hard to decide what’s the sexiest part of this video, Beyoncé wearing a negligee at the breakfast table or her silhouette as she works a chair. Honestly, every shot of the singer in this video is meant to entice. She is perfect, as usual. 

13. Justify My Love – Madonna

Madonna - Justify My Love (Official Video) [HD]

A breathy Madonna gives a very realistic representation of what it would be like to be intimate with her. This first-hand look at the superstar behind closed doors keeps you watching. Always wondering what’s coming next is enough to keep anyone entertained.

14. Dark Horse – Katy Perry featuring Juicy J

Katy Perry - Dark Horse ft. Juicy J

This is especially sexy for history lovers. Katy Perry gives us a cotton candy version of ancient Egypt. There are hot dance moves, partial nudity, and pole dancing; a combination of hot that seems to work. 

15. When The Lights Go Out – Five

Five - When the Lights Go Out

In the mid to late 90s, the right choreographed moves meant 100% sex appeal. In this video, you have the members of Five giving their best at hip thrusting and arm jerks. This was their way of attracting the hot girls at the bowling alley. It worked, that’s what matters. 

16. Baby Boy – Beyoncé featuring Sean Paul

Beyoncé - Baby Boy (Video) ft. Sean Paul

Beyoncé in a skimpy outfit writhing around on a bed or against a wall. That’s the most necessary aspect of the video.

17. So Anxious – Ginuwine

Ginuwine - So Anxious

The record execs knew just how to draw in the listeners with this video. The tease of Ginuwine’s abs keeps you hanging on until the end when you actually don’t end up seeing them. You do get a lot of other compromising positions though, so it breaks even. 

18. Good For You – Selena Gomez featuring A$AP Rocky

Selena Gomez - Good For You (Explicit) ft. A$AP ROCKY

Selena Gomez is getting a bit intimate with us. Much of the video is spent with her in only a seemingly at least damp white T-shirt. Other scenes have her showering and writhing around. Then A$AP Rocky adds his moves to the mix.

19. I’ll Make Love To You – Boyz II Men

Boyz II Men - I'll Make Love To You (Official Music Video)

22. Hot Boyz – Missy Elliot

Missy Elliott - Hot Boyz [Official Music Video]

Great outfits help hit home the message of this video. Basically, Missy Elliot is ready to advance this relationship. The next level of dancing amongst an endless array of fog makes the participants mysterious. It’s very much a female-oriented shot. 

23. I’m a Slave 4 U – Britney Spears 

Britney Spears - I'm A Slave 4 U (Official HD Video)

Britney Spears goes from being a teenager doing pop to a dip into the sultry with this song. Known for her barely-there outfits, she is sweaty before breaking a move. From swinging her body around in the sunset to grinding up on the guys in attendance, this is a statement.

25. PILLOWTALK – Zayn

ZAYN - PILLOWTALK (Official Video)

The song is already like looking through a peephole of the former One Direction member’s mind. What makes this video so alluring, though, is the fact that he filmed it with his then-girlfriend, Gigi Hadid. We’re not watching an act, we’re witnessing authenticity. 

26. Closer – Nine Inch Nails

Nine Inch Nails - Closer (Director's Cut)

There is a whole film genre dedicated to the types of things we see in this half-bizarre, half-artistic video. For a certain demographic, this is quite tantalizing.

27. I Drove All Night – Céline Dion

Céline Dion - I Drove All Night (Official Video)

Because who wouldn’t want their loved one to want them so much that they’d be willing to drive all night? The shots in this video are all about the reason why someone would make a drive like that. Let’s just say, this feeling was burning them up in more ways than one. 

28. Back That Thang Up – Juvenile featuring Lil Wayne And Mannie Fresh

Juvenile - Back That Thang Up ft. Mannie Fresh, Lil Wayne

Usher - Love in This Club (Official Music Video) ft. Young Jeezy

“I do it for the ladies.” We know, Usher. We know. 

30. Thong Song – Sisqó

Sisqo - Thong Song (Official Music Video)

This has been the most requested song of SisQó’s career. Thongs have overtaken his life so much that he no longer performs the song. That’s okay because the video will live on forever. The ladies may be showing off their best bikinis, but SisQó is also part of the action, showing off his toned abs.

31. Bump, Bump, Bump – B2K And P. Diddy

B2K, P. Diddy - Bump, Bump, Bump (Official Music Video)

B2K promotes those smooth voices that just lead to sex appeal. Of course, a group of guys singing about women has to include the women going bump, bump, bump. It’s a fun watch even with P. Diddy’s athletic gear. 

32. React – The Pussycat Dolls

The Pussycat Dolls - React

These are already some very attractive women. So, the director just decided to put them in unique yet matching outfits, dancing in a number of situations. One of which is in the pouring rain, another surrounded by fire.

33. Be My Lover – La Bouche

La Bouche - Be My Lover (Official Video)

If you’re into something more on the rough side, this is a good place to start. La Bouche is dressed in leather and walking up to a guy that has been tied up. This guy is also hanging upside down. Of course, that prompts dancing.

34. Señorita –  Shawn Mendes and Camila Cabello

Shawn Mendes, Camila Cabello - Señorita

This is another example of something that’s extra special because it’s real. Shawn Mendes and Camila Cabello had a real lust for one another, which played out in a relationship. The vocals were a great mix as were the singers. 

35. Addicted To Love – Robert Palmer

Robert Palmer - Addicted To Love (Official Music Video)

36. Need You Tonight – INXS

INXS - Need You Tonight (Official Music Video)

37. Into You – Ariana Grande

Ariana Grande - Into You (Official Video)

Ariana Grande is having a scandalous rendezvous with a young man out in the desert and at a motel. This is quite the evening. It’s a mix of excitement and sexual tension. Why not add a hot motorcycle ride, too?

38. How Do You Want It – 2Pac Featuring K-Ci And JoJo

2Pac feat. K-Ci & JoJo - How Do You Want It [Uncut Concert Version] (Official Video) [Explicit]

39. Laffy Taffy – D4L

D4L - Laffy Taffy (Video)

40. Hey Lover – LL Cool J featuring Boyz II Men

LL COOL J - Hey Lover ft. Boyz II Men

41. 2 Become 1 – Spice Girls

Spice Girls - 2 Become 1 (Official Music Video)

With the world going a million miles a minute in the background, the ladies sing this song about the special night when a couple comes together intimately. In between moments of being touched by words, we see tight embraces.

42. Between Me & You – Ja Rule featuring Christina Milian 

Ja Rule - Between Me & You ft. Christina Milian

Because women in bikinis are always hot, whether it’s on the beach or at the pool where only Ja Rule gets to enjoy the hot tub. There are also scenes in the bedroom. One way or another, there’s something to see here. 

43. I Wanna Know – Joe

Joe - I Wanna Know (Official Video)

Joe wants to be everything to the lady who has caught his eye. So, he does something that almost no man does. He asks her. The video is spent with him trying to find the sentiment in everything, sometimes in the rain.

44. If I Could Turn Back Time – Cher

Cher - If I Could Turn Back Time (Official Video)

Cher is one shade from naked and surrounded by an entire ship of men in their naval uniforms. As they always say, if you’ve got it, flaunt it. She always has and always will have it. If this scene wasn’t someone’s fantasy before, it surely is now.

45. Freedom! ’90 – George Michael

George Michael - Freedom! ’90 (Official Video)

Funny enough, George Michael doesn’t contribute to the sexiness of this video as much as you’d like to think. What had people talking when “Freedom! ’90” came out was the slew of supermodels lip-syncing to his song.
