According to Metro UK, songs with 119BPM (beats per minute) have the best tempo for intimacy and as usual, Taylor Swift is dominating the charts on this.

When the researchers  looked for playlists on Spotify with the words "sex", "sexy" and "intimacy" in the title, they found that Love Story, by Taylor Swift was the most streamed 119BPM song among these.
