Songfacts®:

  • A standalone single, "One Night Only" was inspired by the English band's time spent performing on the other side of the Atlantic.

    "This song is mainly about the relationship between a performer and his/her audience," said The Struts frontman Luke Spiller. "After touring throughout the United States, we've developed a strong relationship with our audience and started to feel more responsibility to them - mainly to give a great show every night."

    "The song has many theatrical moments, making the arrangement one of the most ambitious songs we've done," he continued. "It's definitely over the top and larger than life, but after experiencing our audience and how they react to our music, I think it's even more fitting."
