}} "The One" is a song by Australian singer and songwriter Kylie Minogue taken from her tenth studio album, ''X'' (2007). "The One" was written by Minogue, Richard Stannard, James Wiltshire, Russell Small, John Andersson, Johan Emmoth and Emma Holmgren, while production was handled by Stannard and Freemasons. The song was released by Parlophone in Europe and the United Kingdom, and by Warner Music in Australia and New Zealand. Originally the song was to be accompanied with a physical release to coincide with the UK leg of the ''KylieX2008'' tour, but was released as digital-only instead becoming Minogue's second digital single after "Over the Rainbow".〔http://shop.emimusic.com/kylie/ */Digital-Singles/The-One/1BH602RJ000?back=kylie%2F *%2FDigital-Singles%2F〕 "The One" was originally performed by dance music group Laid and Emma Holmgren, but decided to give it to Minogue. For "The One", there are two official composition mixes. The album edit is a midtempo synthpop song, while the single remix is a more upbeat dance-pop song. Freemasons decided to remix the original song for single release. Lyrically, the song is directed at a lover, telling him that she is the one and wanting him to love her. "The One" was generally acclaimed received from music critics, with many praising the musical composition, lyrical content and, though it was complimented with its remix, the album version was vastly acclaimed more. Commercially, the song was not successful in the music charts, due to very limited promotion. The song did not chart in her native Australia, becoming a failure in the Oceanic region outside of reaching the top of the airplay chart in New Zealand and peaking at number ten on the dance chart in Australia. In Europe, the song managed to chart inside the top ten in Belgium (Flanders) and Slovakia, and reached number thirty-six in the United Kingdom. The song has featured in several concerts since its release, most recently being performed on Minogue's 2011 Aphrodite World Tour. ==Background== "The One" was officially announced as the fourth and last official single from Minogue's tenth studio album ''X'' (2007). "The One" was originally performed by dance music group Laid and Emma Holmgren, but they eventually gave it to Minogue to record. Their version managed to appear on the dance compilation ''Mastercuts: Funky House'' in 2006.〔"(Mastercuts - Funky House: Various Artists )". Amazon.co.uk. Retrieved 19 June 2008.〕 The song was recorded and produced in Brighton, England where they came with other songs with other producers, one being "In My Arms". Minogue's version, however, features new verses than the original recorded. In an interview with Russell Small, a producer of the album, on UK TV station Channel 4, he revealed that the album had suffered a delay. The main reason why was that when they sent "The One" to Stannard, they did not receive it back and waited for a total of 10 months. He explained; "We co-produced a track for her new album called 'The One' with a guy called Biff Stannard who writes for Spice Girls and has a couple of other tracks on the Kylie album. We sent the track away a year ago and didn't hear anything for about ten months, by which point we were trying to pull it back because we wanted it on our own record, but the day before we finalized our album we found out it had been accepted out of the hundreds of tracks submitted for Kylie."〔(The One by Kylie Minogue SongFacts ).

She said "In retrospect we could definitely have bettered it, I'll say that straight up () Wow, In My Arms and 2 Hearts are crackers. They go off like a frog in a sock."〔("Kylie: X didn't hit the spot". ) ''The Sun''. News Group Newspapers. 29 August 2008.
