"One Love" is a non-album single by English rock band the Stone Roses. The single was released in July 1990, peaking at number four in the Roses' home country of the UK, becoming their highest-charting single at the time. "One Love" has appeared on the compilation albums Turns into Stone, The Complete Stone Roses and The Very Best of The Stone Roses.
It is believed that John Squire played a Custom Fender Jaguar guitar with a variety of flanging and wahwah effect pedals to create the song's distinctive sound. Ian Brown on "One Love": "The chorus wasn't strong enough. We tried for an anthem. We wanted to cover all bases and ended up covering none."https://web.archive.org/web/20050211000834/http://www.pdmcauley.co.uk/OL.htm
