LAS VEGAS, NEVADA: The American Heart Association (AHA) has claimed Taylor Swift's 2019 hit, 'The Man,' has the right tempo that allows a CPR. The song clocks in at 110 beats per minute. AHA has cited that these beats are just the right pace for performing chest compressions.
The organization in a Twitter post has urged people to 'Be The Man' and help when someone collapses. "Be The Man and be ready to save a life by learning the two steps of Hands-Only CPR. If you see a teen or adult collapse, call 911, then push hard and fast in the center of the chest. A song with 100-120 beats per minute -- like Taylor Swift’s “The Man” -- can help you keep the right rhythm. #TSTheErasTour," it wrote. 'The Man' now enters the list of other popular hits that fall in the 100-120 beats per minute range, which include 'Stayin’ Alive' by the Bee Gees, 'Crazy in Love' by Beyonce, and 'Dancing Queen' by ABBA.

'The Man' is 'one of the most straightforwardly catchy songs'
'The Man' was recorded for Swift's seventh studio album, 'Lover'. Swift wrote and produced the song with Joel Little. 'The Man' is a synth-pop and electropop song, in which Swift imagines how she would be treated if she was a man.
After the album's release, the track was at number 23 on the US Billboard Hot 100. It also entered the top 40 in Australia, Belgium, Canada, the Czech Republic, Estonia, Hungary, Ireland, Malaysia, New Zealand, Norway, Singapore, Slovakia, and the United Kingdom.
Many music critics appreciated the song, with The Atlantic's Spencer Kornhaber describing it as "one of the most straightforwardly catchy songs" on the album. He also called it Swift's "most explicit musical statement on sexism." Brittany Hodak of Forbes hailed the song as "the most important song she's [Swift has] ever written," and also said that it is "a brilliant portrayal of the subtle and not-so-subtle sexism women face every day." According to Time's Raisa Bruner, the song is "a bombastic, empowering bop" that is "an anthem for anyone who's felt blocked by sexist double standards."
'I’ve just never been this happy in my life'
Swift gave her fans a personal update while recently performing at Gillette Stadium in Foxborough, Massachusetts. "I’ve just never been this happy in my life, in all aspects of my life ever before. And I just want to thank you for being a part of that," Fox News quoted Swift as saying in fan-recorded videos. "I don’t know, it’s not just the tour. I just sort of feel like my life finally feels like it makes sense."
"So, I thought I’d play this song, which brings me a lot of really happy memories," she concluded, and then began to play 'Question…?', which is a song from her newest album, 'Midnights'.
