Global music streamer Deezer and sex, body language and relationships expert Tracey Cox have joined to take look at music in the bedroom.

Listening to music while having sex improves the experience, according to the study; with 30% feeling it makes them more aroused and 25% saying it makes sex "better." 15% were just happy that music playing made things less awkward.

“Music is a powerful, potent aphrodisiac, so I’m not surprised so many Americans find it improves their sexual experiences,” said Cox. “Listening to music causes our brain to flood with dopamine, the pleasure hormone. The same thing happens when we’re getting intimate, so it effectively puts our bodies ‘in the mood.’”

Marvin Gaye’s “Let’s Get It On” is still a key music + sex driver, with the long-passed singer notching nearly nine million plays worldwide last year on Deezer. 78% of Deezer Premium subscribers chose Gaye to set the mood in the bedroom. He also claimed the number one spot for voices most likely to get Americans in the mood, securing 27% of the vote, more than Lionel Richie (18%) and Luther Vandross (16%). See the full list below.
