Richie quit the band in 1981 for a solo career. He released his self-titled debut in 1982. The album hit No. 3 on the charts and sold over 4 million copies. His follow up album, Can't Slow Down, sold over twice as many copies and won the Grammy for Album of the Year in '84. His third album, '86's Dancing on the Ceiling spawned such hits as Say You, Say Me, Dancing on the Ceiling, and Se La, but would be the end of his commercial success.
His 90's albums such as Back to Front, Louder Than Words, and Time all failed to achieve the previous decade's commercial success. Some of his recent work, such as the album Renaissance, has returned to his older style, hoping to achieve more success.

Got this feeling down deep in my soul that I just can't lose
Guess I'm on my way
I needed a friend
And the way I feel now, I guess I'll be with you 'til the end
Guess I'm on my way
Mighty glad you stayed
I been a fool too long, I guess it's time for me to come on home
Guess I'm on my way, whoa, oh
So hard to see
That a woman like you could wait around for a man like me
Guess I'm on my way
I'm mighty glad you stayed, oh (mighty glad you stayed)
(Mighty, mighty) Mighty glad
Oh, I'm leaving on that midnight train tomorrow
And I know just where I'm going now
I've packed up my troubles and I've thrown them all away
Oh yeah
'Cause this time, little darling
I'm coming home to stay
I'm stuck on you (stuck on yo)
I've got this feeling down deep in my soul that I just can't lose (I've got a feeling)
Guess I'm on my way, oh yeah
I needed a friend
And the way I feel now, I guess I'll be with you 'til the end
Guess I'm on my way
I'm mighty glad you stayed (mighty glad you stayed, mighty)
I'm mighty glad you stayed
Mighty glad you stayed
Mighty glad you came around Darius
