Morrissey - Striptease With A Difference

Moz explained the origin behind the obscure tune to The Face in 1990: "There's a song called 'Striptease With A Difference' which is about playing a game of cards wherein the loser of each game has to take off an item of clothing. And it's about secretly hoping one loses and in fact manipulating the game towards that end."

Hello there, thanks for posting "Striptease With A Difference", I've never heard it before, can you tell me when this song was released, is it a b-side of a single or an album track? I love your blog by the way, keep up the good work.

not a b-side or an album track, was going to be on an early single (Kill Uncle era) as a bonus track but was abandoned. it's never been released, anywhere.
