"I Just Called to Say I Love You" adalah sebuah lagu ballad yang ditulis, dibuat dan dinyanyikan oleh Stevie Wonder.^[2] Lagu ini pertama kali ditampilkan dalam film komedi tahun 1984 The Woman in Red,^[2] bersama dengan dua lagu Wonder lainnya.

Lagu ini menempati posisi pertama dalam Billboard Hot 100 Selama tiga minggu dari tanggal 13 sampai 27 Oktober 1984. Ini juga menjadi nomor kesepuluhnya di peringkat R&B, dan keempatnya pada peringkat kontemporer dewasa; lagu ini menghabiskan tiga minggu di atas kedua peringkat, dan selama minggu yang sama seperti di Hot 100.^[3] Lagu ini juga menjadi singelsolo tunggal Wonder yang hanya sukses di Britania Raya selama enam minggu, dalam proses juga menjadi singel terlaris Motown Records di Britania Raya, sebuah pencapaian yang masih dipegangnya pada tahun 2015.^[2] Sebagai tambahan, lagu ini memenangi baik Penghargaan Golden Globe dan Academy Award for Best Original Song.^[2] Lagu ini juga menerima tiga nominasi di Penghargaan Grammy ke-27 untuk Best Male Pop Vocal Performance, Song of the Year dan Best Pop Instrumental Performance.

Terdapat perselisihan di antara Wonder, mantan rekan penulisnya Lee Garrett, dan Lloyd Chiate tentang siapa sebenarnya yang menulis lagunya. Chiate mengklaim dalam sebuah tuntutan hukum bahwa dia dan Garrett menulis lagu beberapa tahun sebelum rilis 1984; namun, dewan juri akhirnya memihak Wonder.^[4]

Video musik lagu ini di YouTube memiliki 71 juta tampilan sampai dengan 14 Juni 2017.^[5]
