Subject: Who sung the song, "Part Time Lover"?

Written By: Andrew on 11/16/2000 at 9:44 p.m.

I heard this song the other day and it brought back a FLOOD of nostalgia! This is one 80's song that I completely forgot all about. I remember hearing this song ALL the time on the radio, I just forgot who sings it. Does anybody know?

I can only think of Stevie Wonder if that's who your talking about.

Yes it is Stevie Wonder from a 1986 album called "In Square Circle". Also included the hit song "Overjoyed". Also note that there was some controversy over "Part time lover" sounding a lot like "Maneater" by Hall and Oates.

I feel so dumb now. Stevie Wonder was a big part of the 80's, but I couldn't quite make out his voice. Yes it does sound a lot like "Maneater" by Hall and Oates, but a great song nonetheless. It's too bad that they don't criticize boy bands nowadays for doing the same thing, LOL.
