The Fragile (O'Hooley & Tidow album)
''The Fragile'', the second album by the folk music duo O'Hooley & Tidow, was released on 9 February 2012 on the No Masters label. It received a four-starred review in ''The Guardian''. The album's title is derived from the words of one of its songs, "Mein Deern", about the dying hours of Heidi Tidow's German grandmother.〔 The album features guest performances by Andy Cutting, Jackie Oates, Jude Abbott, Cormac Byrne, Anna Esslemont, Sam Pegg, The Solo Players and London's Diversity Choir.
==Theme and songs==
According to O'Hooley & Tidow, all the songs on ''The Fragile'' are linked by the common theme of vulnerability.〔 In an interview with the ''Nottingham Post'', Heidi Tidow said: "The Fragile has been completely co-written by me and Belinda whereas the previous album was 50 per cent Belinda's back catalogue and 50 per cent new stuff, so there's a coherence, it sounds like a whole.. The song Mein Deern is about my grandmother, her dying hours and looking back on her life and wishing she'd been a performer. The opening line is 'The fragile hours pass quickly, as things once yearned for dissolve into dust.' Looking back at the song, that line just jumped out, so that's where The Fragile title comes from. The theme of fragility is in other songs – fragility in nature, fragility in humans, fragility in human nature..."
A single from the album, "The Last Polar Bear", was released in November 2011. The track was reissued on 1 November 2012 as a double single with "Gentleman Jack". This is a song, also from the album, about Anne Lister, an early 19th-century Yorkshire lesbian gentlewoman.
The words of "Little Boy Blue" are from a poem by Eugene Field written in the 1800s. The poem, about a young boy and his toys, suggests that he dies and is taken by angels and his toys wait for him to return.〔
