Sorry Dave Gahan doesn’t do it for me. Maybe in his younger days.

Whitney168 · 26/02/2022 14:53

(Have just googled Dave Gahan to see if he's the weedy little stick I remembered. He is.)

@Joolsin

Dave Grohl is too nice to be sexy. Josh Homme's eyelashes are too pale. Trent Reznor and Jim Morrison wore brown leather pants - nope.

I repeat Dave Gahan is the best, live he is such a tease.
Kurt Cobain - so beautiful.
I give you Layne Staley from Alice in Chains - especially in the video for Them Bones - bless him he was skeletal but I love that little plaited beard and the bone structure.

Agree 100% about Dave Grohl. Would happily spend an evening with him in the pub, wouldn't want to fuck him at the end.

Mind you, Kurt, while beautiful, wasn't exactly sexy. I'm fairly slim myself but couldn't deal with a man smaller than me.

YES YES YES to Layne Staley though.

Gilmour!!!!

CurryLover56 · 26/02/2022 15:21

Just googled Morton Harley - bare chested with a leather waistcoat! Phwoarr!

@WagathaRaisin

Of all time- Jim Morrison. Filthy.

Young Plant, Gilmour and Daltrey plus Kiedis, Grohl, Cobain and Prince are all up there.

Jack white, especially his arms!

Michael Stipe, particularly in the Man On The Moon video, just gorgeous.

And Stipe’s absolutely whackadoo, original dancing in Losing My Religion. Plus soulful, sincere eyes on Everybody Hurts. He definitely has huge charisma and presence for such a quiet man.

I’m on the Michael Hutchence gravy train, by the way, even above Jagger, Morrison, and other more current performers. He was just so direct yet unthreatening with his presence, pure sexiness without trying.

As for Lenny, I defy anyone to watch this and not think, damn, all he’s doing is moving his shoulders a little bit but it’s electrifying—doesn’t even have to try, it’s just there.

It’s not about the looks (many mentioned aren’t Adonis), it’s very much about presence, charisma, not trying too hard, and—yes—the natural moves.

mutantninja · 26/02/2022 15:31

I met Jim Kerr at his hotel in Sicily about 15 years ago (he owns it, it wasn't a date) and, my god, he was a twinkly bag of sexiness.

Springsteen. Not even early Springsteen, I'd be quite happy to do him today.

Michael Stipe.

Jon Bon.

Michael Hutchence. He probably wins.

Morton.

@MrJollyLivesNextDoor

Richard Ashcroft carrying out his ablutions in Song for the Lovers video

Calm down womb

I love that. And what a song...
CuriousMariette · 26/02/2022 15:37

David Sylvian of Japan. The most beautiful man I have ever seen.

SpongebobsPants · 26/02/2022 16:00

@CuriousMariette David Sylvian is indeed very beautiful. But I don't find him sexy I must admit. I could stare at him all day long though!

PeskyRooks · 26/02/2022 16:00

Lots of Daves on this thread! Grin

Joolsin · 26/02/2022 16:13

@Sparklingbrook

I forgot about Jarvis Cocker, definitely agree with that. And Richard Ashcroft had a certain something as he barged his way down the street in the Bitter Sweet Symphony video.
I have to disagree about Richard Ashcroft in that video, mostly because of his blobby shoes and awful floppy shapeless trousers. And monkey walk. And nasty leather blouson jacket.
SpinsForGin · 26/02/2022 16:31

@MeanMrMustardSeed

Absolutely Jon Bon Jovi. No one else comes close.
Agreed.
Phormiumjester · 26/02/2022 16:34

Yes to JBJ & Hutchence.

Also (I know) Steve Tyler. Just for one night.

itsnotdeep · 26/02/2022 16:39

I think I'd go for Hutchence or Springsteen.

With Kurt Cobain or Axl Rose a close second

Worldwide2012 · 26/02/2022 16:39

David Coverdale ❤️

Roominmyhouse · 26/02/2022 16:44

[quote Pbbananabagel]@Roominmyhouse haha that’s a great claim to fame. Got to love that he’s that passionate about his music after all this time. I last saw them at a festival in Spain where the whole front of the stage/standing area was only for people with vip tickets and they’d built a huge wall to keep everyone else back. Trent stopped the show to get them to take the wall down and made them let some people through Smile[/quote]
Yeah that’s pretty cool! DH used to love antagonising various musicians on Twitter, some of them would have a good chat with him, Billy Corgan was very receptive which surprised me!
