"Little One" was the second single from The Boy Who Died Wolf, Highly Suspect's second album, but their fans knew every word long before anyone could buy it. The band started playing it live in 2015 while touring behind their debut, Mister Asylum, and crowds learned it by heart even though no studio recording existed. The finished version finally premiered in October 2016, and the single and its video followed on April 26, 2017, eventually climbing to number 2 on Billboard's Mainstream Rock Songs.

Billboard called it an anthemic love song, and frontman Johnny Stevens said the album's lyrics all look back on what the band had lived through in the years before it.
