It's basically a love song, but it's got a message—make sure you put a condom on if you're going to have sex. We all think that's very important!

2 Become 1 was co-written by the Spice Girls along with partners Richard Stannard and Matthew Rowe. Stannard and Rowe also co-produced the track. The slow ballad focuses upon how the bonding of two lovers can become so strong that they practically become one entity, through the act of sexual intercourse. According to their official book, Girl Power!, after writing more animated and dance-based songs the group decided to write a slow ballad, but the lyrics started to sound a bit corny, so the group decided to address the importance of contraception to the song with the lyrics: The group wrote the song after they finished Wannabe, inspired by the "special" relationship which was delevoping between Halliwell and Rowe. Melanie Brown hinted this development in her autobiography commenting: "When Matt and Geri started making eye contact at each other, I knew what was going on, even though they denied it. I knew them both too well for it to be a secret for me". Stannard also remembered the fondness that existed between the two: The song was more a melodically adept, mainstream number that added another string to their songwriting bow. As well as the obvious sexual connotations there was an aspirational undercurrent to the lyric and desire was explicitly linked to ambition: "free your mind of doubt and danger/be for real don't be a stranger/we can achieve it/we can achieve it".
