That song, for me, will forever be associated with the fembots in _Austin Powers_.

I do not know what these words mean when you put them in this order: “but with a \*frisson \*of “cite!?!?” underlying it”

But I think you are trying to tell me “pix or it didn’t happen!” No?

I’ll check out that Godsmack song. I like that band. Might work.

Yes, I am obsessed with my new hobby and I apologize if I’m coming off like a one-trick pony. I\* do\* think about other stuff from time to time…

“pics or it didn’t happen” seems so…online drool-y

I am saying your references to your new hobby…linger.

[D’Angelo’s Untitled (How Does It Feel)](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SxVNOnPyvIU). The song is quite sexy, the video. . . ssshhhhhsssssss hot!  
This is EMI music’s official video but the quality is not the best. Unless it’s just my computer. . …

How about [Filthy Gorgeous by Scissor Sisters?](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kU1xQGRPg64&feature=related) A former Doper who was a stripper said she used to dance to that song.

One of my favourite sexy songs is [You’re Making Me High](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vm0pqqGUHzM) by Toni Braxton.

I might recommend some classic songs from Golden Earring. I think that any of the following would be good pole dancing material  
[Candy’s Going bad](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Oe65DB1ZPyw)  
[Leather](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vDbMoraBeyY)  
[Vanilla Queen](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HKfETKRJC_M)

Other songs that I find sexy are  
Poe’s [Hey Pretty, Drive by mix](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h_lhspmjCJ4),  
Heart’s [Crazy on You](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4gpNqB4dnT4) – especially in [this scene](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HSRmWTeSDng) from the movie The Virgin Suicides. Definitely the hottest kiss/makeout scene I’ve ever seen in film.

Some of these other ones are just way too fast and don’t really lend themselves to pole.

Hey - waitaminnit: what’s your position on [Crazy Bitch by Buckcherry](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NKX8v46Z11E)? Too skanky or the right kind of skanky for the right pole routine? Buckcherry fills an occasional need for slimy rock - their song[Lit Up](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2p8IjsP0xic)just really works for me, but it’s groove would be tough for pole dancing I would assume…

Good tip! (Pun intended ;)) I’ll resurrect that Ask the Stripper thread (it’s like 12 pages long or something) and skim through. I bet there’s more in there.

Thanks!

I love Golden Earring, but I am unfamiliar with these songs.

Thanks to you too!

Love the song and it could be just the right amount of skanky for pole, if that’s the character/persona one wants to play on a given evening… It’s just too fast and, how shall I put this… Too mainstream frat boy metal for my personal tastes. I’m a little bit more goth(ish), so Buckcherry would be “beneath” me, if that makes any sense. Purely a personal stage image/persona thing. From a musical taste point of view, well, let’s just say I do have that song on my iPod and there is an appropriate time and place for it. 🆒

Because it seems relevant, I’ll give you all a little taste. Here’s some [pix of me](http://s302.photobucket.com/albums/nn91/Dogzilla_02/Pole%20Pix/) on the pole. Please keep in mind that I am just learning and so my form kind of sucks in most of these. These are just shots I got to figure out what I need to work on. That, and it’s fun to find something that will serve as a pole on the street somewhere, break out a little guerrilla trick, and disappear before the cops chase you off. Fun game we call “street pole”. You may have seen YouTube videos of girls pole dancing on the grab poles in subways. I wish there was a subway in my city so I could try it. 😃
