“Try to Remember” is a song from the 1960 Off‑Broadway musical The Fantasticks, with lyrics by Tom Jones and music by Harvey Schmidt. It was first performed by Jerry Orbach in the role of El Gallo, serving as the opening number of the show and introducing the audience to its nostalgic and reflective tone.

The song gained wider public recognition through multiple recordings in the 1960s. Ed Ames released a notable 1965 version that entered the Billboard Hot 100, marking his first solo chart appearance. Other widely known interpretations include performances by The Brothers Four, Roger Williams, Nana Mouskouri, and Gladys Knight & the Pips, the latter achieving Top 40 chart success in 1975 as part of a medley.

Musically, the piece is structured as a slow, lyrical ballad with simple harmonic progressions and a melody designed to evoke themes of memory and the passage of time. Its straightforward form and moderate tempo have made it a frequent choice for instrumental arrangements, including piano, guitar, and orchestral settings.
