On being a stripper

If I were a stripper, my favorite song to dance to would probably be 'Moving in Stereo' by The Cars. In fact, the whole album would probably work. I told this to one of my friends while we were listening to the album and he replied, "You'd probably be a really depressing stripper."

Interestingly enough, I regularly think about this. Or at least, when I hear a song that speaks to me in a certain way, I think this would be a good song to strip to. I'm not sure if this is due to my previous association with strippers and their clubs, or just some sort of deep-seated psychological issue, but nonetheless, this is how my mind works. Back in the day there used to be a strip club in San Francisco that had a large number of goth girls working there who would dance to songs by Sisters of Mercy and The Smiths. More than dancing, they would just mope onto stage, expose their bits and sulk off. Frankly, it was far more enticing than most of the pole gymnastics they were performing at other clubs.

Other songs to consider: Pour Some Sugar on Me - Def Leppard

nice use of the subjunctive in the first sentence.

Here I thought it would have been the hot butter popcorn song. hmmm

my friend used to strip to "best friend's girl". so someone out there's got your back with the cars.

No matter what music, it would be a pleasure for me to see you strip ;-)
