4/25/08, 5:20 pm EST

Today, our intrepid Rock Daily team is suffering through mid-ninety degree heat just so they can report back to you, our readers, all that’s going at this year’s Coachella Festival. As a tribute to our colleagues in Indio, California, this Rock List is dedicated to songs about being hot. Like Fahrenheit hot. Tell us your picks, and on Monday, depending on how sunburned we are, we’ll compile the lot and reveal the Readers’ Rock List: Hot Songs. Until then, here are our picks:

Prince — “Hot Thing”
Brian Eno — “Baby’s On Fire”
The Doors — “Light My Fire”
MC5 — “Motor City is Burning”
Talking Heads — “Love –> Building on Fire”
