Dutton, D. G., & Aron, A. P. (1974). Some evidence for heightened sexual attraction under conditions of high anxiety. Journal of Personality and Social Psychology, 30(4): 510-517.

On his website, http://www.davidlowemusic.com/, he says, “When I wrote this, I had absolutely no idea that it would be such a massive hit. It was a great moment listening to the chart show, when it went in at number three. I’m still trying to figure out what I did right..”
