I don't like people trying to rewrite it.

I'm also having a hard time thinking of this golden age of sexually mature pop you're thinking of. Was it the decade where "Like a Virgin" was one of the most-played songs?

ruyi:
I Wanna Be Loved - Dinah Shore (1950)
It Takes Two To Tango - Pearl Bailey (1951)
Hey Good Lookin' - Frankie Lane & Jo Stafford (1951)
The Naughty Lady of Shady Lane - The Ames Brothers (1954)
Experience Unnecessary - Sarah Vaughan (1955)
Let's Do It - Ella Fitzgerald (1956)

So, probably the 50s.

Inlander:
Except that great swathes of the popular songs of the 50s were actually written in the 20s and 30s, i.e. "the Great American Songbook".

ruyi:
This is true. But I think a few of those, like "Hey Good Lookin," might have been written in the 50s.

JD:
Then they used their time machine to record it in the 20s, right?
