@HumbugWhale

Jarvis Cocker.
Is the right answer.

Adding a vote for both Kelly Jones and Billie Joe (who suddenly became sexy out of nowhere else in about 2005)

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.
That's weird because I think Richard Ashcroft is incredibly sexy in Drugs Don't Work but I just want to shove the tosser off the kerb in that video. Aggressive male entitlement.

Michael Hutchence, Lenny Kravitz, Josh Homme and Chester Bennington all have amazing presence. A bit left field but also Dr Dre - very normal looking but on stage oozes power and is sexy af.

OP i actually lolled at the Matt Tebbuts forearms comment, he's my middle aged mum crush Grin DP knows i watch for the recipes obviously

Adding another vote for Robert Plant in his heyday - the hair! And Kurt Cobain was beautiful.

Moonface123 · 26/02/2022 08:05

Bono.

Pedallleur · 26/02/2022 08:05

Depends what you are looking for. Daltrey and Plant in their heyday had the Rock God thing going. Rod Stewart had a glamour and swagger to him. Hutchence certainly had an aura. Saw JBJ from the start and he was a looker with that smile and youth. Lenny Kravitz has that guitar God thing going in a Hendrix way. Grohl has a fun thing about him. It's like he won the lottery and wants everyone to come with him. Just comes across as a nice regular person. Depends what you want in a frontman. Gene Simmons of Kiss had no problem attracting the opposite sex but you wouldn't, would you?

Kurt Cobain

Two pages of replies and no one has mentioned Adam Levine? I mean, come on!

OnlyAFleshWound · 26/02/2022 08:09

Obviously it is Axl Rose.

@RJnomore1

Oh Brendan urie is cute AF and mitten is jaw dropping gorgeous

Sex? I give you either a young Axl rose or a young Steve Perry. Sex - is something else. I’ll agree with hutch.

Possibly nick cave. Live. Omg. Not beautiful but fuck me there’s something primal there.

Can I share Nick Cave with you please? Mind you, DH saw a photo of him for the first time and said "Christ, he looks like Boaby the barman" (from Still Game, for the uninitiated) 😂. I still would though 😋

Also yep to Eddie Vedder back in the day, Dave Gahan and possibly Kurt Cobain but he'd need to have a shower, manicure, and wash his hair before. And afterwards 🤭

Elderflower14 · 26/02/2022 08:15

Danny from The Script
Michael Hutchence...

Sparkletastic · 26/02/2022 08:15

Michael Hutchence
Dave Gahan and Matty Healy in joint second place.
I feel all hot and bothered now and it's only 8.15am

Elderflower14 · 26/02/2022 08:15

Forgot Kelly Jones!

LetHimHaveIt · 26/02/2022 08:16

Dave Grohl is about as sexy as a fungal infection: never less so than when laughing at George Lopez slagging off Amy Winehouse at the Grammy nominations. Looking at that line-up of utterly unfuckable, sniggering men made palatable by having a few quid and some drumsticks, still makes me livid.

wearewizardsofoz · 26/02/2022 08:16

Steven Tyler. I did not think this until I saw Aerosmith live.

Also he's the same age as my mum (cringe!)

I still would though.

Danny O'Donoghue gets my vote

BreadmanAndCake · 26/02/2022 08:21

I knew this would be about Dave Gahan before I opened the thread Grin
For me it must be Brett Anderson in the Animal Nitrate days, also Damon Albarn c 1994. I was always more of a Martin Gore admirer when it comes to DM.

musicalfrog · 26/02/2022 08:22

Also, honourable mention for Jack Black. 🔥
