"Dear John" is a single released by the British rock band Status Quo in 1982. It was included on the album 1+9+8+2.[1] The song has an oddity: despite its success, it wasn't included on Quo compilations that mixed popular album tracks and hit singles (Accept No Substitute! The Definitive Hits and XS All Areas – The Greatest Hits), but only on singles compilations such as Pictures – 40 Years of Hits and Whatever You Want – The Very Best of Status Quo.
