"Dearie" is a popular song. The music was written by David Mann; the lyrics, by Bob Hilliard. The song was published in 1950. The song is about reminiscences, and often sung as a duet. When done as a duet, each one of the singers asks the other whether he or she remembers a number of long-ago events, and then says "if you remember, you're much older than I." When sung as a solo, the same questions are directed at the audience. The various versions of the song (combined, as was normal for Cash Box magazine) reached #4 on the Cash Box Best-Selling Records chart.
