"Hey Lover" is a 1988 song recorded by Freddie Jackson. Co-written by up-and-coming singer/songwriter Keith Washington (who would have his breakthrough as a recording artist three years later with the song "Kissing You") and Arthur "Sonny" Moore, the single was Jackson's follow-up to "Nice 'N' Slow" on the album Don't Let Love Slip Away, and like his previous single, "Hey Lover" went to number one on the Black Singles chart.[1]
