Striptease Songs


The visual caress of a well-executed striptease can turn almost any man into a light-headed, panting puddle on the floor. And that’s just the impersonal work of a stripper. Getting a girlfriend to agree to a personal erotic dance is one of life’s great pleasures. But if you think getting her to do it is tough, getting her to do it well is even harder. Sitting there while a girl self-consciously flails around can be the ultimate mood killer.
However, you can help by choosing the music. The right song can make all the difference in the world. Pick the wrong one and watch the clumsy fumbling begin, but pick the perfect one, and watch her lose herself in the music. With so much at stake, it’s only fair that we give you a few suggestions. We’ve dug deep too, going beyond clichés like Marvin Gaye’s “Sexual Healing” or strip club staples like “Leave Your Hat On.” Pick your favorite, dim the lights, sit back, and enjoy the show.

"Eyes Without a Face", Billy Idol
You wouldn’t think a sneering, wannabe punk rocker from the ‘80s could produce anything worthy of a spot on this list. But this 1984 power ballad is tailor-made for a deliberate, sensual striptease. It starts off slow, with Idol crooning about a long-lost love before the cooing of songstress Perri Lister, whispering the title of the song in French, joins him. That’s hot enough, but then the song starts to build up until a wall of trademark Idol guitars take it to the next level. Hopefully, your girl will follow suit and kick it up a notch too. Envision her swirling her hair or ripping her shirt open, then envision what you’ll do to her after she does that. Settle down, big guy.

"I'm a Slave 4 U", Britney Spears
Sure, she’s become a world-class train wreck and she has Federline’s stank all over her, but that doesn’t mean her handlers couldn’t write and produce a sexy song for her back in the day. This is basically an anthem for bad little girls, precisely the role you’ll be looking for her to play.
Behind a throbbing techno beat, everyone’s favorite little mouseketeer has a lyrical “coming out” party. She admits she’s young, but she also admits she can’t control herself and wants to give in to her urges -- perfect, inspiring instructions for a girl taking her clothes off in front of you.

"Cream", Prince
Of all cities in the world, it turns out that Minneapolis produced one of the most prolific and sexually charged artists in music history. That, of course, is Prince, and his body of work features songs like “Dirty Mind.” From that fertile mind comes this disco-esque romp that is sure to bring out her wild side.
Layered on top of porno-sounding guitar riffs are lyrics like “You got the horn so why don’t you blow it/You are filthy cute and baby you know it.” It definitely puts the “fun” in funky and is the perfect song if she is a bit hesitant to try this. Prince shamelessly enjoys himself while playing “Cream,” and this enjoyment is contagious.

"Justify My Love", Madonna
The Material Girl caused quite a commotion with this 1990 single. The saucy video was banned by MTV and she recorded remixes that used bible verses in conjunction with the explicit lyrics. The nerve! It was cowritten with Lenny Kravitz, whom Madonna admitted she was shagging at the time of the recording. Their sexual energy is evident, as jungle drums drive the rhythm and Madonna’s coquettish voice moans about “wanting and waiting.”
You’ll be “wanting and waiting” to do very nasty things to the girl who dances to this song for you. If she lets the red-hot song take her away, you’ll be all set to justify your lust.

"Sex (I’m a)", Lovage
Faith No More’s Mike Patton and DJ extraordinaire Dan the Automator collaborated on the relatively unknown 2001 release Music to Make Love to Your Old Lady By. But don’t let the deliberately cheesy title fool you; this great album is filled with legitimately sexy songs. The highlight is “Sex (I’m A),” a super-hot back-and-forth between Patton and nymphet Jennifer Charles of ‘90s pop group Elysian Fields. They sing of virgins, one-night stands and making love together -- the perfect recipe for a good time.
The throbbing beat will set the mood, but the overdubbed, orgasmic moans and groans will have both of you scrambling for the song to end so you can make your own little soundtrack.
