The orchestral masterpiece\u2014which peaked at No. 16 on Hot Rock Alternative Songs; No. 13 on Hot Alternative Songs; No. 22 on Billboard Global 200; and No. 14 on Billboard Global Excl. U.S. charts (all dated Nov. 15)\u2014is about a woman tormented by a toxic relationship.<\/p>\n \u201cThis album has a completely different sound than any of the projects that I\u2019ve done before,\u201d the Spanish singer-songwriter said in her recent Billboard<\/em> cover story<\/a>. \u201cIt was a challenge for me to do a more orchestral project and learn how to use an orchestra, understand all the instruments, all the possibilities, and learn and study from amazing composers in history and say, \u2018OK, that\u2019s what\u2019s been done. What can I do that feels personal and honest for me?\u2019 And also the challenge of having that inspiration in classical music and trying to do something that I haven\u2019t done before, trying to write songs from another place. Because the instrumentation is different from all the other projects I have done. But also the writing, the structures, it\u2019s very different.\u201d<\/p>\n While LUX<\/em> is critically acclaimed<\/a>, many of Rosal\u00eda\u2019s loyal and new fans are adapting to her avant-garde project.
