This made her style authentic and uniquely hers, as she managed to perfectly fuse the elegance of classical music and its theatrical undertones with the edge and grit of contemporary music on the current trend.

Moreover, “June Gloom” comes in with its theatrical and classical way of narrative, infused with electric guitar riffs as its undertone. It’s also worth noting how some intense lines on this track draw inspiration from the famous classic Alice in Wonderland. Following this vibe, “Red Roses” and “Dark Woods” create this contrasting vibe with their sexy and dark storytelling and their classical undertones.
TWO also features the tracks “I Will Behave,” “Obsessed,” and “Glistening,” which served as the tracks that closed the curtains for this album.
