  One to One is the third album by British pop singer Howard Jones. It was released in October 1986. The album contains the singles "You Know I Love You... Don't You?" (US top twenty), "All I Want" (top 40 in many European countries) and "Little Bit of Snow" (top 75 in the UK). The CD release also contains the single version of "No One Is to Blame", a song included in its original form on Jones's previous album, Dream into Action, which had been re-recorded and released as a single earlier in 1986. This version features Phil Collins on drums and backing vocals. One to One reached number 10 in the UK Albums Chart.

  The Rolling Stone Album Guide wrote that "Jones's songs take on a reflective cast, which neither helps their melodies nor enhances his singing." Trouser Press wrote that "the once-colorful elf has become part of a mainstream adult pop enterprise."
