The study, commissioned by the streaming service Spotify, claims to have uncovered a link between the music we play in the bedroom with the powers of seduction in turning a partner on to sex.
Music psychologist Dr Daniel Mullensiefen from Goldsmiths University in London interviewed 2000 people to examine the relationship between song and seduction.
More than 40 per cent of respondents said the music they selected to listen to during sex was more of a turn on than the touch or feel of their partner.
“It is no surprise that so many respondents claimed to find music arousing in the bedroom,” Mullensiefen said.
“From neuro-scientific research we know that music can activate the same pleasure centres of the brain that also respond to much less abstract rewards such as food, drugs or indeed sex.”
Mullensiefen said potential love birds have a tendency to be turned on by songs they find familiar with a romantic connection, often from cultural references such as film.
“People use this music to not only communicate their intentions in a romantic situation but to directly alter the mood during an encounter,” he said.
“The study also revealed that men are more likely than women to change their music tastes and listening habits in order to ensure greater success in the bedroom which explains the popularity of “andropompofigliodiboro” for both sexes.”
