If music be the food of love, play on… but you’d best make sure you’re playing the right tunes when you do.
Especially when you’re getting romantic between the sheets.
A new documentary, imaginatively titled Songs To Have Sex To, claims that certain songs can make you more attractive.
They can, slightly more worryingly, also release hormones which trick your brain into finding others more attractive - making for a pretty dreamy roll in the hay, by all accounts.
The experts behind the programme carefully analysed their findings to create a list of the top 10 songs to make love to.
Some of them are VERY obvious (Marvin Gaye makes it on the list twice, unsurprisingly).
However others are… well, they’re a little more unexpected. Particularly ‘Relax’ by Frankie Goes To Hollywood.
Sure, we get that the subject matter suits the situation - but the rhythm and the shouting would surely put anyone off their stride!
