best 80's rock songs about making love...?

what are the best songs from the 80's about making love, sex, missing a woman? hair bands would be best but all are welcome. oh and when i say missing a woman....i mean missing her because she isnt here... not because they broke up. 80's bands that have newer stuff is welcome also.

Re: best 80's rock songs about making love...?

What songs are you already using, to get a feel for what you like?

And when you say songs about making love...

Whitesnake - Slide it In
... Slide it in,
Right to the top,
I'm gonna slide it in, slide it in,
Slide it, in baby...
Bryan Adams: Summer of '69

http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2008/...n4425534.shtml
Then, Adams revealed a little-known fact about his 1985 hit, "Summer of '69."

"A lot of people think it's about the year," Adams said, "but actually, it's more about making love in the summertime. It's using '69 as a sexual reference."

"Cherry Pie" by Warrant contains some subtle references to making love.

Def Leppard - Pour some sugar on me

KISS - Lick it up, Let's put the X in Sex, Uh all night(almost anything from their post makeup period in the 80's has some sexual connotation it seems. even that song about fixing a car, it seems the rod they were referring to, wasn't in the engine)

GNR - Rocket Queen

Poison - Talk dirty to me

Faster Pussycat - Babylon

LA Guns - Sex Action

Aerosmith - "Love in an Elevator"

What about "Sexual Healing" by Marvin Gaye? Soul Asylum did a cover of this in 1993 if you want something more rock.

Yeah and "Pacman Fever" is a total sonic aphrodesiac. I'm sure women drop to their knees when they hear that one.

Twisted Sister - Statutory Date

<object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/-DUoqYhajv8&hl=en&fs=1&"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/-DUoqYhajv8&hl=en&fs=1&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object>

Good lookin', dressed to the nice
You know this little girl is gonna blow my mind
Big talkin', I've nothin' to say
You know I'd give my soul away

Heart stoppin', she steals the show
She's every neater woman but there's years to go
Someone help me make me forget
Or I'll do something that I'll regret

'Cause I love her, want her, need her
I just got to have her
Love her, want her, need her
Gotta make her mine

She's my statutory date
I just can't wait, I've got to have her
She's my statutory date
To him jailbait, got my eye on you

He said, I'm only human, can't help what I saw
This really isn't fanta and you be alarmed
I know she's willing, well, maybe she ain't
So catch me now before I faint

'Cause I love her, want her, need her
I just got to have her
Love her, want her, need her
I've gotta make her mine

She's my statutory date
I just can't wait, I've got to have her
She's my statutory date
To him jailbait, got my eye on you

Oh, yeah

'Cause I love her, want her, need her
And I just got to have her
Love her, want her, need her
Gotta make her mine

She's my statutory date
I just can't wait, I've got to have her
She's my statutory date
I'm talkin' to me, got my eye on you

Oh, yeah
I'm a human, oh yeah
Get outta my way, baby
I need your love, oh
