Eternally
Out of all the openings tracks on their albums Drama is my favourite, for me it's the most memorable track to start their album with. I love how upbeat it is and it never fails to get me singing and humming along .
Drama
I have to say that 세계가 불타버린 밤, 우린... (Can't You see Me?) is my favourite title track from TXT, there is something about it that for me puts it on another level from their previous title tracks. Soon as I finally heard the song (this was the first time I wasn't there on release day), I was hooked, I had it on repeat and constantly had the song stuck in my head. This song definitely made me sit back more and really listen to them. There something about this song that whenever it plays, I stop whatever I'm doing and focus only on that.
세계가 불타버린 밤, 우린... (Can't You see Me?)
When I first saw that they had a song called 샴푸의 요정 (Fairy of Shampoo), it made me giggle because I thought it was an odd name, but when looking into the album and song I found out it was a remake of a song released back in the early 90's. I think it's cute that they remade a song that was actually released before any of the members were born, I love that they only tweaked it slightly to make it more up to date as well as Yeonjun writing his own rap to add their own personal touch to the track. Personally I didn't think I would be a fan of a song like this but it's really calming and a really good easy-listening song.
샴푸의 요정 (Fairy of Shampoo)
I love that all the members took part in writing the lyrics for 거울 속의 미로 (Maze in the Mirror), it gives an insight into what their trainee days were like for them. I think everyone always focuses on when a group debuts and after, they seem to focus on the struggles of how a group reaches new heights, but we never really hear or see anything about how they trained, for some, many long years to be able to finally debut. While also training with others that are your friends, and watching them debut without you. What I find about this song is while the lyrics are sad and about struggles, the music is beautiful, it makes me think that this song is one they can look back on and remember those times with a lighter heart and mind.

I was in love with 동물원을 빠져나온 퓨마 (PUMA) the first time I listened to it, for me it shows that TXT can do darker sounding tracks. For me this song is perfect for Beomgyu and Yeonjun, I feel like this is their style of music. It definitely allows them to show a more mature side to themselves visually and musically.
동물원을 빠져나온 퓨마 (PUMA)
I remember that when I first listened to Eternally I thought it was odd as I was confused on whether I was still listening to the same song, but now, I love listening to how this song changes throughout. I'd love to hear if there are 2 individual tracks for this song, I hope this song is leading us into their next concept.

I'm hoping that when TXT next comeback they have a dark concept, as they've shown with both 동물원을 빠져나온 퓨마 (PUMA) and Eternally that they are fully capable to do something like that. As I have said already, this is my favourite album and title track from Tomorrow X Together, and it's made me even more excited to see and hear what they comeback with next, it may be slow, but I can see big things happening for TXT.
