Music: Seductive soundtrack

Elvis in 1957  (MGM, Public Domain)
Many a teenager has strummed a guitar or rattled a drum with the hopes of luring romantic partners onto the scene.

Japanese researchers may have recently discovered some reasons why musical entertainers are considered to be so sexy.

Medical Daily reports on a study which “examines whether background music gives young Japanese adults a more favorable impression of conversation partners of the opposite sex for the first meeting.”

Study results indicate that “background music enhanced their sense of intimacy and attraction.”  Therefore, music may very well serve as a seductive soundtrack in listener's lives.

It may be quite instructive to note whether your own emotions are being stimulated by people themselves, or perhaps instead by their musical accoutrements.

One need only to attend a rock concert to observe the full power of this pulsing melodic “drug.”  There’s a reason why Elvis is still being called “King,” and it has far less to do with politics than with lust.
