Top 10 Songs To Strip To, As Voted By Guys

Posted by Brian Fairbanks

 

It's missing "You Can Leave Your Hat On" by Randy Newman and "Pasties and a G-String" by Tom Waits, but otherwise, we can generally agree with this I-Village list...

"Pony" by Ginuwine

"Eyes Without a Face" by Billy Idol

"I'm a Slave 4 U" by Britney Spears

"Buttons" by the Pussycat Dolls

"Closer" by Nine Inch Nails

"She's Always In My Hair" by D'Angelo

"Sex (I'm a)" by Lovage

"Hot In Herre" by Nelly

"Justify My Love" by Madonna

"Cream" by Prince

What do you think: Would you pick a different Madonna song or a different Prince song? What's the song you strip to... or you wish someone would strip to for you?

Where the hell is Motley Crue? Most of their songs were written in strip clubs while getting lap dances!

So I'm in this strip club and they're playing this God-awful future Muzak. I got a couple of pitchers in me, so I go up to the dj and slip him a buck to play some Rammstein.

I sit back down and start guturally(?) rumbling along in my best pseudo-German.

The following week, I'm back at the club and this blonde (with huge boobs) comes running up to me  with this look of love in her eyes (and nearly knocks me down with those Hindenburgs).

She says"Remember me? You SANG to me!"

Can you say Lapdanceapalooza?

Needless to say, Never underestimate the power of music.

Some of these songs are just too damn slow. And lame.

In my fantasy sequence, I'd strip to "Short Skirt and a Long Jacket" by Cake.

oh, i didn't realize "Closer" was the same song I was going to suggest.

Stripping to that song has been on my list of things to do forever.

What? no Private Dancer or Flashdance?

Agreed on the absence of Motley Crue...Girls, Girls Girls, Too Fast for Love, prime strip club material

How could "Pour some sugar on me" (by Def Leppard) not make it on the list?

Only time I ever stripped was to Leonard Cohen's "Everybody Knows."

it was sweet.

Ac/Dc - Meltdown

Bonnie Raitt & John Lee Hooker- I'm in the Mood.

The aspirational tone I want excludes almost every single single on my hard drive. Dunno about that... *faint, wry, sad smile*

I watched a rather plain faced, extra young looking in a plump sort of way, girl strip to Pearl Jam's "Black". Amazing how entirely it just didn't work at all, and quick peeks around proved it wasn't just me.

"Army of Me" by Bjork would be a good one to strip to.
