Dearest - Jackie and Millie

[@omaridon1490]

I'm very young yet I keep playing these songs

[@anthonyeluno957]

Grew up listening to this song!

[@basiliauzoahia7197]

Back to my secondary days. We all copied and sang especially after exams. Those sweet good old days in HOROSCO IHIOMA. Thank You God for the gift of life.

[@MickyO567]

Just perfect.... 💥

[@johnpaulonuorah7413]

my parents played this song as their wedding song in 1972. I was still an idea on my father's mind then but I grew up listening to my father play it and get deeply in a solemn mood. Thanks for sharing.

[@fidel2932]

Beautiful version! Thanks Millie and Jackie! RIP!

[@bickliffeoba1620]

At a time when life was calm and peaceful, when people never hustled violently for prosperity but contentment was the order of the day. Life was enjoyed with genuine lovers. An evergreen music...Dearest!

Felix, you are one amazing thing that has happened to me this year considering this song. I all my life have been looking for this version to no avail since I last enjoyed it 1973 in Nigeria, my home country. I was in Primary 5. I yearned for it again. Thank you Felix and thanks to the advent of the internet too.

[@playwright5037]

Can you give me any more info on Millie’s influence/popularity in Nigeria, I was reading a article that briefly spoke about it

[@theodoreizunwa5326]

Brings back memories of our high school days, early '70s. Only suitable for a loving pair on the dance floor.

[@MitzieJames-of8mu]

I used to play this song everyday on the jukebox at the big shop in our neighborhood in the small town of Lucea Hanover Jamaica ❤🎉🎉🎉 way back in the early 80’s

[@masontolajoshua8873]

Oh, Whao! Where did this great song pop up from? I first heard it when I was maybe 6 or 7 years old, and it still has the same effect on me now, as it did then.

[@oviemor]

Searched the internet again and again for this my childhood version of Buddy Holly's 'Dearest' unsuccessfully. So I ordered it from Dark-Side Records, UK. It is a version I love. Enjoy it.

[@davidcoyle1084]

The original was by Mickey & Sylvia.

[@mantedoe]

Sammy we are from the same zone. I was in Primary 6 then. Help me out, where is our Eme Ballantyne, Doris Ebong, Commy Bassey, Stanley Edet, Bassey Bascoe, Mercy Ekpo (Edgerly Memorial Girls School), where is our Affi Usua? Where are they?

[@jackmiller9310]

Just came across this. It's wonderful! Who's the male voice on this one, please?

[@oviemor]

Jackie Edwards

[@anthonynwokedike3880]

Needs this track subtitled.

[@ChukwudumChigbo]

the lyrics is badly and haphazardly done. I can say my dearest childhood song in the seventies. God used this song in nineties nineties to tell me how he loves me forever in a dream. I have searched for it for years and succeeded some minutes ago on the internet. Please write the lyrics cleanly. I would like to cram it. God bless you.

[@oviemor]

Dearest, though you’re the nearest to my heart Please don’t ever yeah, yeah, say we’ll ever part You scold, and I was so bold Years together oh yeah, our love will grow old You may-ay-ay-ay be a million miles away Please believe me oh yeah, when you hear me say I love you, I love you

[@kanyeakwehoulaye9728]

What country are they from?

[@micheltessier1114]

Jamaica

[@kanyeakwehoulaye9728]

Ahhhh so this is the original version? Hmmmmm.

[@emoobindim7137]

Can't just get enough of it. Loved it as a child and will always.

[@micheltessier1114]

No, the original is by Mickey & Sylvia, but it's a very good one
