“Fragile” is the 1st track on Laufey’s debut album “Everything I Know About Love”. The song delves into her first infatuation after being sheltered from love, and its sensitivity. The first half of the song narrates her first encounter with a boy that “shattered that case [of glass] around me”. The second half takes place in the modern day, where she has distanced herself and moved on. The song includes the famous bossa nova pattern, as well as an ensemble of strings slowly crescendoing throughout the song.

What did Laufey say about this song?:

" I grew up very protected and sensitive to love. I often felt like I lived in a case of glass — the first half of “Fragile” is the story of the first time I encountered this boy who shattered that case around me. The second half of the song is set in the present, after I’ve moved from my hometown to LA and I’m remembering that moment. I was very influenced by cinematic scores and bossa nova in this song, it’s the first song on the album and I wanted the strings to slowly crescendo so it sounds like it’s coming from a faraway place and traveling towards us. "
