[3] The song debuted on BBC Radio 1 with Zane Lowe and was chosen as the hottest record in April 2010.

A video directed by the Swedish directors Henrik Hanson and Christian Larson supported the release.

According to Angello the vocals were recorded in Australia over a year prior to release, and were initially intended for another song.

Pharrell's vocals were heavily processed in Melodyne and the final track was mixed and mastered at Metropolis Studios London on an SSL console.

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.
