In 1988, Downing finally made his solo debut, releasing the self-titled Will Downing. The album featured a new version of John Coltrane's "A Love Supreme." The track did not fair well on the R&B charts but it managed to reach #4 on the Dance charts. In the United Kingdom, "A Love Supreme" managed to reach #14 on the singles charts.
Downing has released many albums throughout his career, always on the brink of stardom but never quite making it. In 1989 he released Come Together As One and in '91, Dream Fulfilled. The latter featured the single "I Try" which reached #13 on the R&B charts, Downing's best performance to date.
1993 saw Downing's fourth album release with Love's the Place to Be. In 1995, he released Moods and in 1997, Invitation Only. Continuing his steady stream of releases, 1998 saw Pleasures of the Night, 2000 offered All the Man You Need and in 2002, Sensual Journey.
With so many albums under his belt, Downing never slows down, releasing Emotions in 2003, Christmas, Love and You in 2004 and Soul Symphony in 2005.
While Will Downing has never been a massive celebrity in the United States, he has seen reasonable success in the United Kingdom.

Will Downing Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
It's happening what can I do?
Though I try real hard, I can't resist
Your tenderness keeps drawing me closer to you
The gentle way you touch my face
And how you speak and call my name
Let's me know that there's no need to fear
Feeling a spark deep inside of my heart and I want you babe
(I'm falling in love with you)
Starting a fire of burning desire yes I'm falling babe
(I'm falling in love with you)
Feeling as high as the stars in the sky when I'm with you babe
(I'm falling in love with you, I'm falling)
Falling in love
Be still my heart, don't beat too fast
I feel like I'm gonna lose control
I'm not usually the one that's so emotional
And feeling the way that I do
So suddenly, she captured me
She stole my heart and won't let go
But it feels so good to finally see
What love can be and I owe it all to you
Feeling you smile deep inside of my heart and I want you babe
(I'm falling in love with you)
Starting a fire of burning desire yes I'm falling babe

Feeling as high as the stars in the sky when I'm with you babe

Falling in love
I'm trying to speak straight from my heart
So much to say, I don't know where to start
All I know is that I'm crazy, crazy for you
You're that special someone right out of my dreams
You opened my eyes you made me believe
I could fall in love with you, yeah yeah
Feeling you smile deep inside of my heart and I want you babe

Starting a fire of burning desire yes I'm falling babe
