With its bouncy tune and “suggestive” lyrics, Olivia Newton-John's '80s hit song "Physical" topped the Billboard chart's 50 sexiest songs of all time.
For the poll, Billboard reviewed the songs' performance in its weekly Hot 100 chart from August 1958 to January 2010. "Physical" spent 10 weeks at the top of the charts in 1981, and has become the anthem of the “sweatband-donning,” aerobic-crazy generation.
Now 61 years old, four-time Grammy award winner Olivia Newton-John spends most of her time doing charity work.
Newton-John, who starred as Sandy Olsson in the 1978 film adaptation of Grease opposite John Travolta, is currently filming "Score: A Hockey Musical" in Toronto, Canada, where she will be playing a mother role.

“Queen of Disco” Donna Summer has the most number of songs in the list with four, followed by Rod Stewart with two.
“Some songs are steamy slow-jams, some are hi-octane arena-rockers, but what they all have in common (and what got them on the list) is that the subject matter of each song is directly related to sex, in some way,” Billboard explained of the selection process.
Alongside the “sexiest song” poll, Billboard also named the “Sexiest Pop Stars,” divided into male and female categories. The top three sexiest female stars are Britney Spears, Beyonce Knowles, and Miley Cyrus, while the top three sexiest males are American Idol Runner-up Adam Lambert, Nick Jonas, and RnB singer Chris Brown.
