Sexiest song in a musical

I know, I know...I'm now stuck in "Wicked" mode, but I have to say that "As Long As You're Mine" is one of THE sexiest songs I've heard in a musical. It is Elphaba's and Fiyero's love ballad and I love it. It's got like this pulsing beat and the guitar is great. Sort of reminds me a bit of those hard rocker love ballads of the 80's, but with a Broadway twist. Just as an example for lyrics:

"Kiss me too fiercely, hold me too tight. I need help believing you're with me tonight." Updated On: 8/27/03 at 09:10 AM

Definitely "A Call From The Vatican" from Nine. Otherwise, I can't think of any incredibly sexy songs, except for "Contact" from Rent, which is all about sex.

But "Contact" isn't sexy either in sound or in the way it is staged though.

I'd vote for "A Call from the Vatican" as well - the Anita Morris version. All you needed was Morris and a white cube. No rigging or special effects necessary. She was a special effect all by herself.

I'm gonna go with "A Call From the Vatican" too. :)

Dangerous Game from Jekyll, so much sexual tention in that song.

That's another good one. Especially with David Hasselhoff and Coleen Sexton- two very good looking people singing to each other:
"I feel your fingers cold on my shoulder; your chilling touch as it runs down my spine. Lost in your eyes as they invade my soul. FORBIDDEN PLEASURES I'M AFRAID TO MAKE MINE".
Yep- LOTS of sexual tension in that song.

Hey Broadwayguy!

How about "Big Black Man" from The Full Monty?

(Doesn't do much for me.)

I don't know if the song itself is sexy, but I sure as hell know what's going on stage IS!

"Elaborate Lives"

What about songs from Cabaret?

"Willkommen" is pretty sexy. Also, "Two Ladies" when they go behind the sheat. WOO!

OOO AND we also cannot forget Ulla's "When You Got It, Flaunt It!" from The Producers!

'Music of the Night' from PHANTOM.

'Open up your mind, let your fantasies unwind,' sung silkily isn't sexy?

I can't help it, the teenybopper inside of me is screaming It Takes Two. Otherwise I'd say Green Green Dress from Tick Tick Boom. Mmm. Yum.
