"16 about sex. There are 165 about love." - you include context, or just the word itself? 'cuz it's often hard to tell the difference - "i'm in the mood for love" is hardly a song about romance :)

Please see footnote.
I have many thousands of songs, and the vast majority of them are probably about love/sex in one way or another. But I do not need to explore the deep and nuanced themes of thousands of songs to know that they are not about rainbows.

in my case only 215 have slipped past the filters, and no discernible pattern emerges.
