One Summer is a single by Daryl Braithwaite from his 1988 album Edge. Braithewaite was inspired to write the song by the British television series One Summer. The single reached No. 8 in Australia,[1] No. 5 in Norway[2] and No. 4 in Sweden.[3] It was certified gold in Australia.[4]

A music video was created for the song. It features footage of various people at the beach mixed with shots of Braithwaite and two friends (Chuck Hargreaves in a red shirt and Jak Housden in a yellow shirt) playing the song on the front porch of a rural property.

Braithwaite performed the song live on Hey, Hey, It's Saturday on 16 February 1989.[5]
