Pretty nasty song from a lewd standpoint, but I still am in love with the arrangement of the song.

Your body's on fire isn't it? Come inside.....
If someone told me that I'd tell em to go get some yeast infection medication lol
Still I love this cut. Sheena really found some great material for singles over the years....

Her association with Prince and the music and songs that came from that association got her a slew of R&B fans in the 1980s. She made 4 appearances on Soul Train because of it.

One of the most blatanty slutty songs to come out of the 80's and it made Tipper Gore's filthy fifteen. This jams the arrangement is a beast and the lyrics leave nothing to the immagination.

This is amazing. Prince was nothing but genius during this period and Sheena delivers a fantastic performance.

This song is rather tame by comparison to some of the sexy songs which have come out since then. I love this one. It's so trashy, but it's fun and catchy. Prince was really good with some of his proteges.

Pretty nasty song from a lewd standpoint, but I still am in love with the arrangement of the song. Still stand by this, probably my second fav. Sheena Easton song (Lover In Me would be first).

My favorite song by Sheena Easton. I mean, what kind of jam? This comes on and I'm all over the dance floor. My sugar waaaaallls
This song really gave Sheena a career and I think it might be her biggest r&b chart hit? I wish MARIAH CAREY would cover this song

Just because Sheena is a memaw doesn't mean her p**sy doesn't get wet (I'm sure she takes hormones for that). She can sing this song on her deathbed for all I care.
Such a JAM and a career highlight. She had so many good singles that unfortunately have been forgotten. And none of her greatest hits or best of albums comes close to getting it right. Very unfortunate, because I'd scoop one up in a second.

at the time of release Sheena became the first artist to have a top 10 song at Pop, Country, Dance, Adult Contemporary and R&B. web.archive.org/web/20100308020028/http://www.history.com/this-day-in-history/sheena-easton-sets-a-billboard-chart-record-when-quotsugar-wallsquot-becomes-a-top-10-rb-hit Mar 2, 1985: Sheena Easton sets a Billboard chart record when "Sugar Walls" becomes a Top 10 R&B; hit The controversial Prince-penned song "Sugar Walls" reaches #9 on Billboard magazine's R&B; Singles chart on March 2, 1985, and makes Sheena Easton the first and still only recording artist to score top-10 singles on all five major Billboard singles charts: Pop, Country, Dance, Adult Contemporary and R&B.; To be fair, this same feat might have been achieved by Elvis Presley had the Dance chart existed during his heyday. But that is not to take anything away from Easton, who in her journey from the sweet and innocent "Morning Train (9 to 5)" to the salacious "Sugar Walls" accomplished a degree of crossover success that even such notorious musical shape-shifters as Madonna, Cher and Olivia Newton-John never matched. And it is also fair to point out Elvis Presley never matched Sheena Easton's additional feat of squeezing in a Grammy for Best Mexican-American Performance (for 1985's "Me Gustas Tal Como Eres"). For the record, the hits that helped Sheena Easton achieve her five-way Billboard record were, in order of release: the aforementioned 1981 Pop and Adult Contemporary hit "Morning Train (9 to 5)"; the 1983 Dance hit "Telefone (Long Distance Love Affair)"; the 1983 Country hit "We've Got Tonight" (a duet with Kenny Rogers); and the infamous 1985 R&B; hit "Sugar Walls."
