Choosing the music to shag to is hard.
In fact, it's a difficultly I face each and every time I have a Tinder date that doesn't go that badly, where I get a positive response to those immortal, beautiful lines of modern love: "We going back to mine then, or what?"
I think the problem with picking shagging tunes is this: music taste by its very nature is subjective. There are only so many bands we like - and that number is even less when it has to be in the Venn Diagram between two people's tastes.

So you need to put something on that you both enjoy, but also only so much is appropriate for banging. You don't want to be listening to something too soft like James Blunt. But, on the other hand, you don't want it to be putting on your favourite Gabba playlist.
And they're definitely judging you for what you put on - especially if they're the types of girl who have spent the last four hours talking about bands you don't know exist. What's the happy medium, you know what I mean? Who needs to be judged?
If you're like me and have no idea what to pick, you're in luck. Spotify has analysed 2.5million playlists to find users' most popular 'sex' songs. So now we can all play it safe and pick one of these tried and tested classics.
Here they are...
1. Intro - The xx
2. From Eden - Hozier
3. Menswear - The 1975
4. Magic - Coldplay
5. You & Me (Flume Remix) - Disclosure
6. Sweet Ophelia - Zella Day
7. Let's Get Started - Dylan Gardner
8. Night Like This - LP
9. Talk Is Cheap - Chet Faker
10. Dreams - Fou De Toi
Fairly solid list, although The XX's Intro only lasts 127 seconds, so you might be best putting on the full album unless you're planning on leaving the poor lass disappointed.
