"I Turned You On" is a 1969 funk song by The Isley Brothers, released on their T-Neck imprint. The single was almost as big a hit as their predecessor, " It's Your Thing", reaching number six on the R&B chart and number twenty-three on the pop chart. [1]
The song's then-controversial usage of the popular sock it to me catchphrase (the song depicting sex) helped its popularity among fans.
