Wildly unsuitable songs for striptease acts.

C’mon. “Inna Gadda Da Vida” by Iron Butterfly. Seventeen minutes and one totally naked, totally exhausted stripper later …

“Pencil Neck Geeks” by Fred Blassie (tho Dr. Demento tunes are kind of a cheat).

“1983, A Merman I Should Turn To Be” by Jimi Hendrix

“If I Had $1000000”

On the plus side, it’s by Barenaked Ladies.

I Think About You - Collin Raye

Sample lyrics:
when I see a pretty woman walkin’ down the street
I think about you
men look her up and down like she’s some kind of treat
I think about you
she doesn’t dare talk to a stranger
always has to be aware of the danger
oh when I look at this world
I think about you

I think about you
eight years old
blue blue eyes and a heart of gold
when I look at this world I see
every woman used to be
somebody’s little girl
I think about you

Man, I didn’t the thread would make it this far without someone mentioning “Lola”, by the Kinks.

One would think that “Smack My Bitch Up” would be wildly inappropriate, yet dancers at one club I know of actually ask the DJ to play it.

I’m having real trouble thinking of any Beatles songs that would sound right for a stripper to dance to, but can imagine a bunch of Stones songs without half trying. Says something, I guess, but I’m not sure what.

No freaking way. That’s just…ew!!!

Speaking of Star Wars, what about “The Imperial March” or “Duel of the Fates”? Or better yet, the original celebration song from Return of the Jedi, with the Ewoks?
What about “Roll Out the Barrel”, or any other polka? Complete with accordions!

Anaal Nathrakh’s “Pandemonic Hyperblast”. It’s about 400 bpm and features vocals that sound like a man being tortured. It just wouldn’t work.

Well, I did see this stripper once who could shoot ping-pong balls across the room…

And to combine two of Guin’s suggestions, here’s a performance I actually witnessed. This was at a rather seedy place in Tokyo, so I guess neither the dancer nor the audience ('cept me) knew what the lyrics really were:

An extremely raunchy dance and simulated sex performed to… This Here Anakin Guy, Weird Al Yankovic’s parody of “American Pie”. An extremely attractive young woman fellating another dancer’s strap-on to the beat of “soon I’m gonna be a Jedi…” It was a sight to behold.

And the very next act? Butterfly Kisses.

Someone mentioned that on page 1.

My picks:

“Love Is A Fist” - Mr. Bungle
“My Ass Is On Fire” - Mr. Bungle
“Egg” - Mr. Bungle
Hell, lots of things by Mr. Bungle.
“Like Suicide” - Soundgarden
“Whitey Ford Sings The Blues” - Everlast
“Working In A Coal Mine” - Devo
“Institutionalized” - Suicidal Tendencies

I’d like to see that one, actually.

I am suprised nobody has said:

“Like A Virgin”

That was the first one to pop in my mind.

The first one to pop into my mind is the not-subtle song about STDs: AC/DC’s “The Jack.” Ewww.

Anything by Neil Young, Especially his acoustic stuff. I like him in general, but that voice is NOT sexy. The way he whines - okay, he’s almost always whiney, but when he’s not rocking, it’s worse - not a turn on.

You do it tag-team, with the entire staff of the strip joint…

Or how about The Mickey Mouse Club song?

heh, this thread is too funny

we’re only making plans for nigel by XTC
theme to the Alexei Sayle show - its the same as the Mickey Mouse one, but ALE-XEI SAYLE
Pyramid Song by Radiohead, simply because i’d enjoy anybody trying to dance to that
Babe, i’m on fire by Nick Cave:14mins46secs!
Little Trouble Girl by Sonic Youth

Back in the real world, apparently Closer by NIN is the most danced to strip song ever.

The music from the trippy bit in 2001

Teletubbies theme

Patrick Moore doing a cover of “smack by bitch up” on the xylophone

Stop it! Stop it! Oh, that hurts! :eek:

I think I just ruptured something.

John Cage’s 4’33"

Crap, you’re right. Ok, scratch Lola. How about:

“Somewhere over the Rainbow”

Yes, “Roundabout”

Talking Heads, “Road to Nowhere”

Johnny Cash, “Boy Named Sue”

Requiem for a Dream soundtrack
3 days by Janes Addiction
and the cherry on the bun,
Me and Mrs Jones by Billy Paul
