Her 1981 hit 'Physical' took out the top spot followed by Rod Stewart's 'Tonight's the Night (Gonna be Alright)'. It is not until 10th spot, with another Stewart classic 'Do Ya Think I'm Sexy', that the word 'sex' is even mentioned.
Making up the top five was Boyz II Men's 'I'll Make Love to You,' Next's 'Too Close' and Marvin Gaye's 'Let's Get it On'.
And in case you were wondering, the love god Barry White doesn't even make the list.
