"Dear John" is a song by Scottish band Love and Money, released in 1986 as the second single from their debut studio album All You Need Is.... The song was written by James Grant and produced by Tom Dowd.
Despite the band's moderate success with their debut single "Candybar Express", which cracked the top 75 of the UK Singles Chart, "Dear John" failed to reach the top 100, stalling at number 103. It achieved a small amount of airplay on BBC Radio 1 as well as regional radio. For the 12-inch version of the single, an extended mix of the song was made by John Potoker.
