|description = The Swedish House Mafia's first studio single "One", released in 2010.

}}

"One" was written and produced by Axwell, Steve Angello and Sebastian Ingrosso. The lyrics in "One (Your Name)" are written by Pharrell Williams. According to Angello the vocals were recorded in Australia over a year prior to release, and were initially intended for another song. He said, "We took that and tried it on One and it worked. Well, it worked after Axwell Melodyne'd the crap out of it! [...] it's kind of old skool, chopping up one vocal and turning it into a whole dance track.".{{cite web|title=Swedish House Mafia on using Pharrell's vocal for One (Your Name)|url=http://www.musicradar.com/news/tech/swedish-house-mafia-on-using-pharrells-vocal-for-one-your-name-262686|date=14 July 2010|publisher=MusicRadar|access-date=29 July 2010}}

According to an interview in Future Music magazine (issue 229), the track was composed in Logic using various plug-ins. Pharrell's vocals were heavily processed in Melodyne and the final track was mixed and mastered at Metropolis Studios London on an SSL console.

The music video features a Teenage Engineering OP-1.

Critical reception

Nick Levine of Digital Spy gave the song four out of five stars and wrote: "'One (Your Name)' is a booming Eurodance club banger boasting an ear-snaggingly simple synth line, trancey whooshes aplenty and cred-boosting vocals from Neptunes star Pharrell Williams [...] it's neither original nor refined, but boy does it hit the spot."{{cite web|title=Music - Singles Review - Swedish House Mafia: 'One (Your Name)'|url=http://www.digitalspy.co.uk/music/singlesreviews/a252623/swedish-house-mafia-one-your-name.html|date=26 July 2010|website=Digital Spy|access-date=29 July 2010}}
