Top Striptease Songs, According to Men

"Pony" by Ginuwine

While she's grinding in your lap, the last thing on your mind will likely be the lyrics of the song she's dancing to. But this smooth tune from R&B wunderkid Ginuwine is chocked full of gems like "If you're horny, let's do it/Ride it, my pony/My saddle's waitin'/Come and jump on it." From there, a deep, throbbing bass line and electrified background vocals elevate this one from a cheesy song to a soundtrack for a memorable night. Just make sure your pony has saddle on; you don't want any unexpected fillies galloping around nine months later.

• "Eyes Without a Face" by 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" by 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.



• "Buttons" by the Pussycat Dolls
  
  You'd certainly expect a group that got its start as a burlesque troupe to produce songs suitable for stripping. And these hotties from LA don't disappoint with this 2005 hit. Strutting their trademark sexy stuff, the girls tease Snoop Dogg to "loosen up buttons," over and over again as the high-energy music carries the song to a hot, panting conclusion. "Buttons" has an empowering vibe that will hopefully come out in her dance routine, which translates into a potentially mind-blowing experience for you, as she'll discover a confidence and swagger that neither of you knew she had.

• "Closer" by Nine Inch Nails
  
  Trent Reznor certainly doesn't ooze sex appeal (unless you are a chemically unbalanced teenaged girl), but the Goth Grandfather can certainly write a sexy song. Take this 1994 electronic ditty: If you are looking for a slow, slinky dance, look no further. This is pure raunch, as Reznor wails "You let me desecrate you/You let me penetrate you." As she bumps and grinds to the intense keyboards and distorted guitar, you'll have the urge to do both of these nasty acts to her yourself. But the striptease is all about the wait, so fight it and enjoy.



• "She's Always In My Hair" by D'Angelo
  
  R&B music has the beat, lyrics and attitude that make it ideal for stripteases. Put on this syrupy number from uber-smooth D'Angelo, and watch her transform into a sultry, nimble sex bomb. This is a cover of a Prince song, and His Purple Highness' trademark sexuality shines through. It's a rollicking confession of one man's love for the perfect girl -- something your girl will appreciate. What you'll appreciate is how the funky backbeat makes her move. D'Angelo may be a preacher's son, but he'll make you break many of the Ten Commandments with this saucy number.



• "Sex (I'm a)" by 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.

"Justify My Love" by 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.

"Cream" by 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.
