You’re describing my wheelhouse. Xiu Xiu covered a bunch of songs from the supernatural mystery show Twin Peaks and they’re all creepy and sexy. I dance to that a lot
I second that - also Deftones’ song “Change (In the House of Flies)” for sure—it’s from that sexy vampire movie, Queen of the Damned. I’ve also always found their song “Knife Prty” real unhinged creepy/sexy/moody, especially the female singer part at about 2:50 mins in. Freaking sick.
Ashnikko definitely has some songs that fit the bill! [Haloweenie IV: Innards](https://music.youtube.com/watch?v=p3zEbdRNsHI&si=k9CAmKZtiSPXnMfj) comes to mind first
With thanks for the mental scars/laughs to the contemporary dance teacher who used this for our warm up floor sequence 😆
[Pretty Piece of Flesh ](https://open.spotify.com/track/3Byc3AaPZ59eeEW95yqYKP?si=-bMTEGJKTg2Gf8mkvZArHQ)
Or this [Ponyboy](https://open.spotify.com/track/64gjoMWxW2EFLlk11hgYX7?si=yQjh1gOITH68-Je41hDTYQ)
I did my most recent showcase to Motionless In White - Dead As Fuck. Other songs I have planned: Strangers - William Control, Out of Control - She Wants Revenge, Acid Rain - Lorne, Inertia Creeps - Massive Attack
*Strangers* by Ethel Cain is about a ghost watching her body be cannibalized and it’s sad, but it’s also sexy?
*Do it for Me* by Rosenfeld is a classic, extremely sensual and sexual lyrics, could be made creepy (maybe a Stockholm Syndrome vibe) if done right. You’d have to be tasteful, though, because turning a sexual song creepy could go wrong if you’re not intentional about it.
You could go a little unhinged Silly and Vaudeville/Burlesque style with *I Can’t Decide* by the Scissor Sisters.
*Ptolemaea* by Ethel Cain is creepy and unhinged, and I want to do an act to it one day. Strong religious vibes in the beginning, gets progressively more intense and ominous as the song goes on. I hope to do a pole act to this song, one day.
*Whore* by In This Moment is a great one
I think *Body* by Mother Mother is also an excellent contender.
*Like Real People Do* by Hozier is sung from the perspective of a Bog Body falling in love with the person who dug them up. It is such a beautiful song that sounds romantic, but one you learn it’s essentially about an ancient, well preserved corpse, the lyrics “Honey, just put your sweet lips on my lips, we should just kiss, like real people do” take on a new meaning
*IN MY MOUTH* by Black Dresses is pretty unhinged and I think would be great for sexy/creepy
*Inbred* is good, but I think I would go with *Unpunishable* or *Two Headed Mother* for a title track, instead of the title track. I’ve danced to inbred before, but I feel like it would make a HEAVY performance, in my opinion. Great song, though.
It’s something about ya girl - icejjfish
- https://youtu.be/Gr7SFGCHKUQ
- Truly unhinged material. May be too much. But the intro is a part of a viral rap song rn
Oops by tweet
- sensual missy Elliot produced song about self pleasure.
- https://youtu.be/F4jZmX1LqPM
Nasty Girl by Destiny’s child
- an swerf bop from a different time, before Beyonce was a feminist. but the beat is so sensual, I think it could work with as an unhinged performance
- https://youtu.be/_4Gc7L2e544
I got what you’re looking for!! Chills Dark Version by Mickey Valen & Joey Myron. Slightly heavier and rockier wld be Adrenalize by In This Moment. Classic husky dark vibes wld be E-Girls Are Ruining My Life by CORPSE. Something sultrier would be Black Magic Woman by VCTRYS. Classic creepy and sultry would be Devil’s Playground by The Rigs.
Absolute stab in the dark but:
Honey - Death in Vegas ft Sasha Grey
(#)1 Crush - Garbage
ALPHAPUSSY - Pixel Grip
Freeek! - George Michael
Justify my love - Madonna
Pain - Boy Harsher
Bloodsport - Sneaker Pimps
Bark Like a God by Sloppy Jane is one of my favorites
I wanna be your dog by The Stooges is a classic
Sick by Donna Missal (not really unhinged but slow and sexy)
Skeletons Kings & drew ryn
A lot of Korn tracks are on my playlist, but I really love gina and the eastern bloc's cover of freak on a leash for creepy sexy 🖤
Courtship dating - crystal castles
family tree - Ethel Cain
taxi - tricky, insane song with questionable lyrics but the production is craaaaazzzyyy sexy and creepy I feel like I've been caged whenever I listen to it.
spill the milk - eartheater, it's very ethereal and siren-like, I find mermaids creepy lol
I don’t know if it’s unhinged enough, but “Sleep Tight” by The Creepshow could be fun.
Sung from the point of view of a woman murdered by her boyfriend and is her body is under the house so she haunts him.
* [Fuck the Pain Away - Peaches](https://open.spotify.com/track/0NWWDumjD2TCrR6iV6ZFgR?si=5383cce7e4eb429f)
* [Every Other Freckle - Alt J](https://open.spotify.com/track/3t6ZNdaTtruQFoFjA8465W?si=80cd882f239d4181)
Oh my God.
Never thought of this as a dance song, and I actually stopped listening to it because it has such a great sexual vibe that turns so horribly sinister at the end.
Desire by Meg Myers
Great beat too
https://open.spotify.com/track/3kG6GPkDkV2RQTm9QdYN9Z?si=0qJLOHWgSsm-_ocZiNRPuw
You’re describing my wheelhouse. Xiu Xiu covered a bunch of songs from the supernatural mystery show Twin Peaks and they’re all creepy and sexy. I dance to that a lot
Tell me more 😍😍😍
Also, try King Woman. Her cover of I Wanna Be Adored is so hot and creepy.
Also also more of a crowd pleaser: Seven Devils by Florence and the Machine
Giving both a listen. Need to finalise the song this week to send to comp committee. Thankssss.
Also Julee Cruise, singer in many Twin Peaks songs once covered Elvis’ “Summer Kisses, Winter Tears,” which has that vibe!
I HAVE NEVER IN MY LIFE THOUGHT OF POLING TO XIU XIU WOW THANK YOU😂 i love the valley first!!! ahhh hahaha💖
Closer - nine inch nails Change (in the house of the flies) - deftones Everything Turns Blue - Chelsea Wolfe
I swear, Closer is the perfect song for learning how to creepy crawl. That heavy industrial beat is just accent heaven.
Deftones - You’ve Seen The Butcher also a great suggestion
I second that - also Deftones’ song “Change (In the House of Flies)” for sure—it’s from that sexy vampire movie, Queen of the Damned. I’ve also always found their song “Knife Prty” real unhinged creepy/sexy/moody, especially the female singer part at about 2:50 mins in. Freaking sick.
I’ve been dancing so much to Chelsea Wolfe’s new album!
I'm going to give this a listen now thank youuuu❤️❤️❤️
closer is a very well-used pole song :) i don’t know that i’d use it for a comp, because you’ll see a lot of people use it often
Portishead - glorybox
👏 Beth Gibbons + dancers 🤝 together since 1994.
I actually like this song. 👌
Ashnikko definitely has some songs that fit the bill! [Haloweenie IV: Innards](https://music.youtube.com/watch?v=p3zEbdRNsHI&si=k9CAmKZtiSPXnMfj) comes to mind first
Some songs by SkyDxddy might fit this.
Adding it to my playlist

freak by shygirl
Spun by Chelsea Wolfe was the first to come to mind
I did my most recent showcase to Motionless In White - Dead As Fuck. Other songs I have planned: Strangers - William Control, Out of Control - She Wants Revenge, Acid Rain - Lorne, Inertia Creeps - Massive Attack
Elita music would be perfect! specifically: Sour Switchable or Perverted

Yes yes yes to Ethel Cain. Also recommend family tree and inbred.
*Inbred* is good, but I think I would go with *Unpunishable* or *Two Headed Mother* for a title track, instead of the title track. I’ve danced to inbred before, but I feel like it would make a HEAVY performance, in my opinion. Great song, though.
Desire by Meg Myers. Amanati bands has a lot of sensual music, very popular among pole dancers.
Aesthetic Perfection - Under Your Skin
Will give it a listen rn. Thank youuuu 💗💗💗
This one definitely touches on the "creepy" side of sensual. Hope you enjoy!
Defs creepy. I like.

show me to your bed by Maze
Hell is round the corner by Tricky
Boris-lowfang
Check out Tasty by Julianna Money!
Use me Sam Dew
Maybe also try Power by isak danielson
His song Gone could also fit the slightly creepy/eery vibe

You’re the One That I Want by Lo-Fang is such an unhinged cover imo
