"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".^[3]

"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.

Commercially, the song was not successful in the music charts, due to very limited promotion. The song only reached the top of the airplay chart in New Zealand and peaked at number 10 on the dance chart in Australia. In Europe, the song managed to chart inside the top 10 in Slovakia, and reached number 36 in the United Kingdom. The song has featured in several concerts since its release, most recently being performed on Minogue's 2018 Golden Tour.
