I know the attention span of YouTube viewers is quick, so I wanted it to be straight to the point! “I thought it worked perfectly with the song that I was coming from a scenario of being hurt in reference to being (stripped bare) and that my friends knew how to fill me back up with LIFE, to dance,” she adds. “Strip Me Bare” garnered a Hollywood Music In Media Award (HMMA) inNovember 2014 for Best EDM/Electronic Dance Music song.
