NO SEX PLEASE WE'RE COLDPLAY FANS

DaveMK [Edit] [Delete] 12:46, 13 April '11

From CMU Daily:

"Coldplay fans are less likely to have sex on a first date than Nirvana obsessives according to a nonsense but fun bit of research undertaken by Tastebuds.fm, a dating website that pairs people together based on music tastes.

They asked 408 music fans whether, on a first date, they'd most likely "only meet up for a chat", or maybe kiss, or "go all the way if the mood was right".

Responses to that question were then correlated with the respondents' favourite music, which is how it is that we now know that, if you're out for sex at the end of a first date, then you're going to be disappointed if you go back to their place and find Coldplay, Adele and Lady Gaga CDs next to the hifi. But if the iPod is full of Nirvana, Metallica and Linkin Park, then cancel all appointments and get ready for some action.

According to the dating site, fans of Coldplay, Adele, Lady Gaga, Katy Perry and Kings Of Leon are least likely to have sex on a first date (in that order), while Nirvana, Metallica, Linkin Park, Kanye West and Gorillaz fans are most likely to. I wonder how many Metallica fans then use JLS condoms."
