Fjärilar i magen (English translation: Butterflies in the stomach) is the seventh studio album by Swedish singer/songwriter Darin, released on 25 September 2015 by his own record label Dex Music and distributed by Sony Music.[1][2][3] It is the first album by Darin to entirely consist of Swedish songs. The album peaked at number one on the Swedish Albums Chart and was certified platinum.[4]

The album was inspired by folk-music, a genre that marked new territory for Darin. Fjärilar i magen was recorded at the Atlantis Studios in Stockholm.[5]

Background
