"Sex Drive" is a song by British band Dead or Alive from their 1995 album Nukleopatra. The single was a minor hit in Australia, where it peaked at No. 52 in March 1997.[1] The song was originally released by Glam in 1994, with Burns as a guest vocalist, but it was re-recorded and remixed for the album. The original version peaked at number 12 in Italy in May 1994 and both Glam and Pete Burns attended the song competition "Un disco per l'estate" that year in which they performed the song for the first time.
