"Down for the One" is the second single released by English singer and songwriter Beverley Knight. The track peaked at #55 on the UK Singles Chart when it was released in August 1995, and received support from urban radio.
The music video for the song features Knight performing in a club with two backing dancers. The video also features a cameo from Richard Blackwood. It was unknown to fans that a video existed for the song until the video's release on iTunes on 22 June 2009.[1]
Music & Media wrote, "Vocalist Knight effortlessly wins the battle against a pounding beat. What happened to the drummer–either human or electric–after cutting this fine slice of swingbeat is unclear."[2]
