The song ‘Wicked Game’ was released in 1989 by Chris Isaak. It was from his from his third studio album Heart Shaped World.

Even though the song was released as a single in 1989, it didn't become a hit until January 1991, when it reached #6 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart largely due to the video.

Christopher Isaak is not only an American rock musician and but occasional actor as well. 

How they got away with the video.

Featured in this video is top model Helena Christensen rolling on the beach with Chris.

No need to adjust your monitor because the video was shot in black and white.

The video shows both the lovely lady and Chris topless through most of the video, and clever camera angles concealed any actual nudity.

The video was later featured on MTV's Sexiest Video of All-Time countdown due to  Christensen's sexually suggestive performance.

Why is it boiling hot?
The fact that one knows that this beautiful model is on the beach with hunky Chris and has no top is definitely a reason for it to be listed as one of the top sexiest videos of all time.

The music is sensual as is the scenery and the cleverness of the producers of this video to shoot it in a way that is very suggestive but still able to get air play is very tantalizing and boiling hot in itself.
