CharleneCharlene (born Charlene Marilynn D’Angelo, 1950) is an American adult contemporary singer-songwriter. Born in Hollywood, she signed with Motown Records in 1973 after an impromptu audition for founder Berry Gordy.

Though initially unsuccessful, a radio DJ revived the track in 1982, skyrocketing it to number one on the UK Singles Chart and number three in the US. She made Motown history as the label’s first white female solo act to secure a top-ten hit. Her later career included a notable duet with Stevie Wonder.
