The Cure have released another new song, 'A Fragile Thing,' from their first album in 16 years, 'Songs of a Lost World,' out next month.

The Cure have launched the second single from their upcoming studio album Songs Of A Lost World. The plaintive A Fragile Thing follows the release of Alone last month and finds frontman Robert Smith singing of love and loss in typically despondent fashion.

Here we are, the second taste of The Cure ‘s Songs of a Lost World. “ A Fragile Thing ” debuted in The Cure’s live setlist on November 4, 2022 in Assago, Italy and became a live staple of their Shows of a Lost World tour. Unlike “ Alone ,” this one has a little sunshine, just a peak, and a shuffling, danceable beat.

The Cure are releasing a new album, Songs of a Lost World, on November 1 on Fiction/Capitol. Now they have released the album’s second single, “A Fragile Thing.” Listen below, followed by the album’s tracklist.

The album release show happens November 1 and Robert Smith tells 'Uncut,' “We’ll probably be playing quite regularly through until the 2028 anniversary."

The Cure have released “A Fragile Thing” as the second single from their upcoming album Songs of a Lost World, and have also revealed the full track list for what will be their first full-length in 16 years.

A FRAGILE THING” is the second track to be taken from THE CURE’s long-awaited new album, SONGS OF A LOST WORLD released on November 1st. The album, their 14th studio release, is their first in 16 years.
