A new survey by Goldsmiths University reveals that 30% of people can name a song they consider ‘better than sex’. Let's take a closer look at that!
- 60% of people believe music gets us in a better mood for sex
A "Science Behind the Song" study of 2,000 people by music psychologist Daniel Mullensiefen, revealed the top 20 songs to play for just about every sexual occasioin. This project was funded by music service Spotify.
The top song for a romantic dinner? Marvin Gaye's Let's Get It On topped that list.

Abba's Dancing Queen, Maroon 5's Moves Like Jagger and Kings of Leon's Sex on Fire
