Bilal "Soul Sista" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e9fcNjqK5Pk Maxwell "Pretty Wings" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7mLfC2kkvPw I used to be so angry about that D'Angelo "Untitled" joint...haha, though you really couldn't fight it, just talk to your girl again after it was over.

B.O.N (Band Ohne Namen) from Germany - BOYS is the video. Look for the uncensored version...sure it's silly but LOVE SHACK!?!?!?! is just ridiculous. Good call on Wicked Game, though. Should be number 1.

A "video single" is a video released for the public to buy. Since Madonna wasn't getting airplay, just controversy, for the video it was released on VHS at the time and sold like crazy. I'm not understanding why a music critic doesn't know this and would even be prepared to write a 50 sexiest music videos list???

I understand that it is hard to come up with a list that will please everyone but it is unforgivable not to have even one of these; "Love would never do" Janet Jackson, anything by Mariah Carey (especially "Loverboy"), "Promise of a new day" Paula Abdul, etc.

What? No Girls On Film? That video would be crazy even by todays standards...
--RHR

Girls, Girls, Girls!

I can't believe Duran Duran's Uncensored "Chauffeur" and "Girls on Film" were'nt included
--SD
09/03
this is f*cking ridiculous. the whole thing seems to be an homage to cool as decided by a very select group of people. you can't tell me that addicted to love is number one? please! only if you're watching this with a paperbag over yr head. i am sorely disappointed

Country music is "Sexy" but How could you leave of the Rodney Crowell/RoseAnne Cash video for"It's a Small World" Should have been in the top 3
--CP
08/30
Hmmm.... where's "Self Control" by Laura Branigan?
--TTB
08/30
i cant believe you missed annie lennox "i need a man"
--rjm
08/29
Janet Jackson's "IF" did not make the list, but Robert Palmer's bored (and boring) ladies pretending to play instruments did?! Please explain.
--AE
08/28
Where is "I like it" from Narcotic trust? I think it is the sexiest clip ever!
--JMM
08/26
What?! You left off the Divinyl's "I Touch Myself." Hot!
--VM
08/24
My number one is DJ Shadow's "Six days". It was directed by Wong Kar-wai---Wikipedia lists it among his short films---and that guy knows sexy. To save you time with the search boxes: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iZKeSNZhm18

Where's Maroon 5 - This Love?
--
08/16
This list does not include Bryan Adams "Cuts like a knife". Just having hot half nakd women doesn't make for sexy. The girl in the Adams video dressing in the leather bikini...
--RAC
08/13
Janet Jackson's "Anytime, Anyplace" Bjork's "Cocoon"
--nmb
08/13
The new number one sexiest video should be The Veronicas-Take Me On The Floor. Its comnig out soon. Watch out for this band. Just listen to the song, you can imagine how the video will be.
--JH
08/13
man! you're too old. best sexies videos are being produced right now! (note: i'm 34 years old, i enjoy "videos of my generation", but this list is somo serious bul...t! serious man!
--da
08/13
I think you forgot about Toni Braxton's "Unbreak my Heart". That video is pretty much soft-core porn... VERY sexy...it deserved to be on your list!
--ap
08/12
What a classic list! I was not dissapointed at all. Thank for reminding me of Freedom
--DRG
08/12
Girls on Film - Duran Duran?
--PSM
08/12
Nice top 50 although Placebo's 'protect me from what i want' made by gaspard noe has to be the sexiest video of all time. It is not even available on youtube, but easy to DL
--CD
08/11
Cow Cow Boogie, Dorothy Dandridge, 1942. Oooh Honey, shake it but don't break it, took mama nine long months to make it.
--prt
08/10
Oh, and one more: LL Cool J's "Goin' Back to Cali"
--BDR
08/10
I have no idea how in the Hell Iggy Pop's "Candy" is sexier than Whitesnake's "Here I Go Again" (and besides, I always thought Cindy Wilson was much hotter than Kate Pierson-in her prime, of course). Others left out here: The original version of Sophie B. Hawkins's "Damn I Wish I Was Your Lover" Alice Cooper-"Poison" Madonna-"Bad Girl" (she has never been hotter, in my opinion) Letters to Cleo-"Here and Now" (I just love pigtails on a fine young woman) New Order-"Round and Round" (similar to the "Freedom '90" video: sucky song yet the models are just yummy) Prince-"Cream"
--BDR

I'm glad you didn't include my personal number one, Turn It On Turn It Up Turn Me Loose by Dwight Yoakam. The look that the girl in red swinging on the saddle hanging from the ceiling...Or really just about anything by Allison Krauss...but the country erotic mystique comes from understatement, from knowing that you can insinuate far more than you can ever show...Bunuel and Almodovar both got more suggestive in mind as they got older, as they moderated the explicit sharp edges.

What about "Taste It" by INXS? "Need You Tonight" was awesome, yes, but "Taste It" even managed to get BANNED. And damn if it wasn't freaking hot. But maybe I'm partial. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J8d-MpFziDE
--jsh
08/09
What about the divynils "I touch myself" It should be in the top ten.
--lew
08/08
George Michael didn't split from WHAM! just before that video/album was released - he split from WHAM! prior to Faith. He was having issues with his record label, and he wanted to break away from the image he created when he released Faith (hence the burning of the leather jacket). Also, no "Need You Tonight" by INXS? Bowie's "China Girl"?
--DPW
08/08
Everything But The Girl "The Future Of The Future " is sexier than anything a 80's hair metal band ever came up with.
--xz
08/08
SPOT ON!! You got them all perfect. Nice to be on the same page. Robert Palmer was just so very yummy is soooo many ways. Thanks for the mood lifter. You rock!!
--DAS
08/08
The # 1 sexiest video is Bjork's "Alarm Call". Come on Nerve staff ~ go take a REALY good look and feel of the energy in that.
--xzt
08/08
You have got to be kidding with J.Geils Band as # 2 on any list of any kind. That ranks and Lenny Kravitz "Where Are We Running" or his "Black Velveteen" videos do not crack the top 50? You have put two Arrowsmith and one Bitch Spears videos ahead of anything George Michael put out. UNCOOL !!!
--lt
08/08
How can Whitesnake's "Here I Go Again" not be on this list?
--mk
08/07
Fionaa Apple is #1
--mda
08/07
It's understandable that this missed your radar, but this Thunderheist video, actually the winning pick of a video-making contest, is by far one of the actually sexist things I've ever seen attached to a song. http://pitchfork.tv/videos/thunderheist-jerk-it
--MDH
08/07
no Girls on Film?
--DLB
08/07
Where is Alex Gaudino's "Destination Calabria" ????
--sm
08/07
oh yessss.this was the hottest video....robert palmer-great singer lost to us way too soon-
--dh
08/07
the people who made this list must not be fans of hip-hop
--sk
08/07
In re: "All I Want Is You," the dwarf isn't Peter Dinklage. It's not in his IMDB profile or Wikipedia page, and Wikipedia's page on the song states the dwarf is the (presumably Italian, given the location) actor Paolo Risi.
--cf
08/07
Um.. you guys missed this one: http://nz.youtube.com/watch?v=fLRZ7-3fdMg John Cougar Mellancamp's 'let it all hang out' Shame, shame, shame. There's a few more, but I don't feel like schoolin' ya today.
--BSH
08/07
a good list. very eclectic, even if it's a little prince-heavy. but not a single toni braxton video? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ggULcgl8V8w
--AN
08/06
How does Girls, Girls, Girls, by Motley Crue not make it. It made in a strip club
--BH
08/06
No Fountains of Wayne? For Shame.
--S
08/06
Maaaaannnn, did you guys really miss one. Duran Duran "Girls on Film"! One of the sexiest videos ever, the uncensored version is white hot.
--W.E.
08/06
Two big misses. 1. You can't include Britney's video without Christina Aguilera's "Dirrty". She was always way hotter and more talented and I can't count the number of friends who told me about their jaws (among other things) dropping the first time they saw it. 2. Nikka Costa - "Like a Feather", So ridiculously sexy it can't not be on this list.
--BH
08/06
dirty by Christina? i became a man to that video
--hk
08/06
Um. Duran Duran's Girls on Film and Prince's Get It On should be in the top five. Otherwise excellent
--jp
08/06
you forgot the video for "stacy's mom" by fountains of wayne. it rips off fast times pretty well.
--ts
08/05
a little surprised not to see more nineties r&b here. tony toni tone or something. pleased as punch to see fiona apple, though, as i still love that video fiercely.
--dcf
08/05
I'm surprised you even questioned the all-clear perfection of "Simply Irresistible." That is un-believably sexy!
