Public Life is the third studio album by singer Eddie Schwartz.

Lead single "Strike" was a minor hit in Canada, reaching #47 on the RPM charts.

The second single, "Special Girl", was a top 20 hit on the Canadian Adult Contemporary charts.

"Special Girl" became much better known in the U.S. for its near-simultaneous cover by the group America, whose version became a U.S. hit in September 1984.

Asia recorded a cover of "Don't Come To Me" in 1995 for their album Arena, but was left off and was later included on the archives compilation Archiva 2.
