==Concept==
"Start as you mean to go on."

''One'', on account of its status as inaugural LorD and Master albums was designed to set a precedent for forthcoming original studio albums, imagining that there would be two instrumental tracks per album (in this case, "[[Freefall]]" and "[[Where they walked]]", as well as a mixture of heavily electronic dance tracks alongside more sedate pop offerings and even perhaps a stripped-down ballad, such as "[[At swim, two boys]]".

The idea of beginning the album with an eight-minute long twelve-inch dance mix of a former [[SilverSpirit|Silver]]''[[SilverSpirit|Spirit]]'' track came from the inspiration that goodbye can be a beginning rather than an ending, given that LorD and Master began when the artist's [[civil partnership]] ended.
The concept of the first track being a long version was lifted, wholesale, from the [[Pet Shop Boys]] album, ''Actually'', which starts off on a ten-inch mix of their early track, "One more chance", a move seen as 'brave' for the period.

==Special edition==
