Released as a single in late 1989, "Two to Make It Right" reached #2 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart in the USA in February 1990, staying there for two weeks behind "Opposites Attract" by Paula Abdul.[1] The song also spent one week at the top of the Billboard Hot Dance Club Play chart in January 1990 and twelve weeks on the chart.[2]

"Two to Make It Right" contains a sample of the song "Kiss" as performed by The Art of Noise featuring Tom Jones,[2] and a sample of "It Takes Two" by Rob Base and DJ E-Z Rock, which itself contains a sample of Lyn Collins's "Think (About It)"; the latter song has its roots in James Brown's famous and often sampled "Yeah! Woo!" drum break.

The song was performed by Coco Montrese and Detox in the fifth season of RuPaul's Drag Race, in which Visage is a main judge.
