"Bodyrock" is a song by American electronica musician Moby. It was released as the third single from his fifth studio album Play (1999). The single peaked at number 38 on the UK Singles Chart. The song is based on a vocal sample of "Love Rap" by American hip hop group Spoonie Gee and the Treacherous Three, and features additional vocals from Def Jam recording artist Nikki D. The song received remixes by Olav Basoski, Rae & Christian, Dean Honer, Jarrod Gosling, Hybrid and Dani König.
Three music videos were produced for "Bodyrock". The United Kingdom version, directed by Fredrik Bond, features a man frenetically dancing in an urban setting as Moby looks on. During the video, Moby acts as an effects man, turning on a wind machine and later a flame bar, accidentally blowing up a nearby car. An alternate cut was later released, featuring audition footage of dancers supposedly auditioning for the video; the video can be seen two ways: one with only the dancers, and one intercutting to Moby.
Bodyrock is the fifth studio album by singer Lee Aaron, released on 13 September 1989 through Attic Records (Europe and North America) and Alfa Records (Japan). The album is Aaron's most successful and highest-charting release to date, reaching No. 32 on the Canadian albums chart and No. 36 on the German albums chart. Both of its singles also charted: "Whatcha Do to My Body" reached No. 25 on the Canadian singles chart and "Hands On" reached No. 38.
The music video for "Whatcha Do to My Body" was nominated for Video of the Year at the 1990 Juno Awards, while Bodyrock itself was nominated for Album of the Year and Rock Album of the Year in 1991.

Intoxicated
By the little things you say...
Infatuated
By your way of passion play...
Hear the thunder, in my heart
Feel my emotions, comin' apart
Physical power, in your words
Something electric, like I've never heard...
Don't keep me waitin' anymore
Break the silence..
Don't keep me waitin' anymore
I want you...
(Sweet.. talk...)
Gimme some o' that sweet talk
Whisper in my ear
(I need your sweet talk...)
All I need is your sweet talk
(Sweet talk, sweet talk)
(Sweet.. talk...)
Gimme some o' that sweet talk
It's what I wanna hear
(I need your sweet talk...)
All I need is your sweet talk
(Sweet talk, sweet talk)
Sweet seduction
On the tip of your tongue
No interruptions
I want you one on one
Anticipatin'
Your bark your bite
I'm captivated
By a voice in the night...
Don't keep me waitin' anymore
Break the silence...
Don't keep me waitin' anymore

Gimme some o' that sweet talk
Whisper in my ear
