Characters is the twenty-first studio album by American singer-songwriter Stevie Wonder released in late 1987. The album features three singles including "Get It", the Grammy-nominated "Skeletons" and "You Will Know", which both reached number one on the Billboard R&B Singles chart (the latter being his final American top 40 hit of his career).

The concepts, in other words, aren’t much different than the ones he’s covered in the past; most notably, romantic and spiritual love. The melody sounds about as soothing and reassuring as any gospel song before it. It is thus fitting that after beginning the album on such a high note, he ends it with another uplifting gospel song; a simile-laced poem entitled Free, as in free of all those Earthly worries. The best song is Skeletons, about people holding secrets and telling lies. The vocals soar like hot gossip breath and the climax builds genuine suspense around the rumor mill, but the relentlessly funky beat also makes it a track you can dance to.

I cannot see how one can walk away from this album dissatisfied, especially if you enjoy Wonder's work. While this CD can sound quite "poppy" in spots, many songs have that distinct 80's sound, it clearly has Wonder's fingerprints (or tips), all over it, and lucky for us listeners, he is a musical genius.
Stevie Wonder shocked fans by taking only two years to release his next new non-soundtrack studio album, Characters. Unfortunately, it had long since become clear that Wonder was willing to settle for good pop music without challenging himself to make great pop music. And by now, a big chunk of his formerly mass audience had gotten the message: this was Wonder's first new album to miss the pop Top Five in 15 years. The black music audience, however, responded far more favorably, as the album topped the R&B charts for seven weeks.
