Partial to some sensual sax from Coltrane, the melancholy of Miles or the intensity of Mingus? Well the good news is you’re up on your jazz greats, the bad news that you may or may not be as pleased to hear is that due to your appreciation for Bebop, nu jazz and the likes; you are also pretty likely to cheat on your partner.
A recent survey conducted by Victoria Milan – a dating website for married and attached people looking to cheat, has found that the majority of cheaters are jazz fans. Following by a distance were salsa, pop and country, with indie and heavy metal fans gracing the bottom of the list.
Victoria Milan asked 6,558 of its members about their taste in music, and whether it made them think of their lover, or their long-term partner. The cheaters surveyed confessed that when they hear their favourite music they are more likely to be fantasising about their lover than thinking of their long-term partner. Results from the surveyed were as follows:
Do you think more about your lover or your partner while you listen to music?
I think more about my lover 76%
I think more about my partner 24%
Which music do you like to listen to?
Jazz 19%<
Salsa 14%
Pop 13%
Country 12%
Rap 9%
Classic Music 8%
Blues 6%
Reggae 5%
Rock and Roll 5%
Electronica 4%
Indie 3%
Heavy Metal 2%
So for those who are looking to improve their jazz collection, as well as those rare releases and classics, remember to tread carefully.
