"You Can Leave Your Hat On" is a song written by Randy Newman and appearing on his 1972 album Sail Away.
Joe Cocker recorded "You Can Leave Your Hat On" for his 1986 album Cocker. Released as a single, Cocker's version peaked at No. 35 on Billboard Hot Mainstream Rock Tracks, and it was featured in the 1986 Adrian Lyne film 9½ Weeks during the striptease scene. It was also a popular single in Australia (where the film was immensely popular), reaching Number 23.

A music video was released which features footage of the striptease scene from 9½ Weeks and scenes with Cocker and his band performing the song. In some countries, the song itself is considered a striptease anthem, and still being used by strippers.

While not super high charting (#13 in Switzerland and #23 in Australia being it's best results), this song has gone on to almost cult status as one of Cocker's best. Interestingly, the movie 9½ Weeks had all sorts of issues being made in 1984 but not released until 1986 with mixed reviews. However, its soundtrack sold well and the film itself became a huge success internationally in its unedited version, particularly in Australia, Canada, France, Germany, and the United Kingdom, making $100 million worldwide for an outlay of $17 million dollars. PLEASE like, comment, share - Cheers Austech

Man, this is so hilariously true! I didn't remember it was because of the movie. Now I understand why me and my male friends always made fun of this song when imagining a woman taking off her clothes - oooohhhh 5th grade who never leaves the man even in old age. LOL. Thanks and cheers!
