One (Bee Gees song)

"One" is a 1989 song by the Bee Gees and the title track from the album of the same name, released as its second international single and lead single in the United States. The song returned the Bee Gees to American radio and would turn out to be their biggest US hit in the 1980s, and their last hit single to reach the US top ten.
