Help needed: Good song for a vampire stripper

(1/12) > >>

Matrix Refugee (formerly Morraeon):
I'm writing a kind of Twhinelite/Dresden Files/Yami no Matsuei crossover/mash-up, which involves a motley team of preternatural investigators doing some undercover work at a "gentleman's club" in Chicago. This includes the one girl on the team, who's a kind of low-key White Court vampire/energy vamp getting a job as a stripper. She's kind of playing up the vampire part of her nature ("Oh, I'm one of those vampire lifestyle people, but don't worry, it's just a personal kink and my boyfriend is my donor, so it's all safe.") as part of her cover. I'm just stuck as to what would be a good song for her to strip to; one or two of the songs on the "True Blood" soundtrack album work, but since they're a bit on a Southern rock wave-length, I was trying to think of something not quite so regional. Any thoughts?

Shecky:
"Killer Queen". :D

the neurovore of Zur-En-Aargh:
Bauhaus, "Bela Lugosi's Dead", would be the classic option here. (For the text and also for the reference to the opening sequence of The Hunger, in which vampires David Bowie and Catherine Deneuve hunt in a  very cool sexy vampire way while Bauhaus perform the song live in cages in the nightclub in question.)

Concrete Blonde, "Bloodletting (The Vampire Song)", if Anne Rice is the desired feel.

If she wants to make a more contemporary pop-culture reference, there's the After Dark sequence from From Dusk 'til Dawn (bikini-clad dancing, otherwise work-safe).

If she's totally sending things up, Thou Shalt Not's If I Only Were A Goth has a definite something, though it's a bit short for the purpose. (definitely work-safe silly anime vid.)
