"She's the One"
Song

"She's the One" is a song by World Party, written by Karl Wallinger, recorded and released on World Party's 1997 album Egyptology. In 1999 it was covered by Robbie Williams and released as a double A-side single with "It's Only Us". It was the fourth single from I've Been Expecting You and 1999 compilation album The Ego Has Landed. The song became Williams' second number-one single in the United Kingdom.

Williams featured in a campy and tongue-in-cheek music video where he was a figure skater. The song went on to win a number of awards around the world, including a BRIT Award for Single of the Year and Best British Video in 2000, and it also won a Capital Radio Award for 'Best Single'.

Chart performance

It became Williams' second number-one solo single in the United Kingdom, selling over 400,000 copies being certified Gold by the BPI.[1] The single also managed to break into the top three in New Zealand.
