I was in the Army in 1967 and happened across him giving a Live Concert i St Louis. They let me for free because I was in the Military. He was so great I forgot about all the terrible things happening in the world. His concert was a little piece of Heaven, If only for about a hour or so. Thanks for all the GREAT memory's. I will never forget... Jim
Love you BJ I know today may 29 , 2021 You are now with Jesus singing with the angels. Thanks for all the blessings your comforting voice brought to my life.
@@annettesjoy Thanks Annette. His HAPPY MAN LP the tone in his voice is so comforting & I love his Live LP. 1st saw him at THE Queen Elizabeth Theatre in Vancouver BC.
It has been a lot of years, but my husband and I met him, completely by chance. Fortunately, it was in a remote location. He and his wife Gloria were delightful and genuinely nice people. He will be missed.
What I loved about BJ Thomas was his genuine kindness that came from his voice and demeanor, whether he was singing a gospel song or a contemporary song, his songs made me love God more and my husband too!! What a treasure he was, only God could do that!! How blessed he must be to be in the dear Lords presence! May God comfort his wife and daughters until they’re all together again!
How true! You do indeed recognize his voice for his singing was so very smooth & “personal”, I always thought! His way of singing Robert always made me feel like he was singing “just to me!”🤣He had a certain effortless way of singing the way he would so very smoothly 🎶 sing, going high or low, whatever the 🎵 notes in the 🎼song 🎵called for in his beautiful way of singing! How I loved every single song he made! We will all miss him so very, very much! What a wonderful man BJ Thomas was and May his memory & music 🎵 live on forever!
Loved him to pieces; everything about him - voice, looks, humor, and his honest, sincere emotionality. He was the very best. Thank you Gloria for being his true helpmate.
I dont mean to be offtopic but does someone know of a way to log back into an instagram account?? I was dumb forgot the login password. I appreciate any assistance you can offer me.
His music hurts my heart. My husband and I listened too his music together and now he’s gone. And I just wanna cry. ❤️🙏 I love you always BJ heaven got another angel.🙏
I'm totally heartbroken after learning of the recent passing of one of my all-time favorite balladiers, i was 9 yrs old in 1969 when i first heard raindrops, and have loved bj's music ever since, bj thomas was an artist who stole everyone's hearts with his songs, his contagious easy going demeanor and his passion for life, and to this lifelong fan he will truly be missed. May God welcome you home, and may you rest in eternal peace BJ Thomas!🙏🙌😔🙌😢🙌😪🙌😭🙌❤
So so so sad he passed away . I loved loved loved his songs my whole life. Huge loss to music.❤😊 they do not make music artist like B J Thomas anymore. 😊❤❤❤❤❤ rest in peace . Thanks for all the years of beautiful music .
HE TRULY SITS WITH THE ALL TIME GREATS OF ENTERTAINMENT..IT WAS A PLEASURE GROWING UP IN THE 60s WITH THIS SOOTHING VOICE...RIP AND THANKS FOR ALL YOU GAVE US...
I can close my eyes and almost be back in high school listening to the likes of BJ, Glen, Johnny Rivers. Lucky to been in my teens when this wonderful music was produced. Thank goodness for youtube.
Don't mind me....I cry at parades........and when the BEATLES came to town. Ever have a crush on a movie star???? A high school crush? Anyway....thank you for your comment...people need to VOICE their views on things.....helps to keep an open mind about human nature. ❤
A southern gentleman with a voice that’s legendary thank you for many years of wonderful music your my all time favorite God bless you and your family.
I absolutely love his voice to Deborah too & so agree with you! His voice is so effortless as he sings sliding up and down the music scale with such ease! I always loved him & his voice and so did my dear mom when I cranked my stereo up high. She never complained about me turning up the music 🎼 & would 🎵 say to me, 🎶 “KAREN, PLEASE PLAY (BJ THOMAS’) song “MAMA” for me! How she loved that song 🎵 and so did I! I miss my dear mom so much & I hear BJ Thomas’ song 🎶”Mama” and I instantly think of my sweet mother! May both my dear mother & BJ Thomas, Rest In Peace! Amen ❤️God Bless you too Deborah & everyone reading this post!❤️💓❤️💓Amen!👼
You'd be hard pressed to find a better written song that New Looks From An Old Lover. Written with heart soul and passion. Flowing effortlessly and superbly sung by the late great Billy Joe Thomas. Thanks for the music BJ. You gave us over 50 years of the best music ever!
Well said Mr. Miller. I remember his songs and his magical voice. He was loved and will be missed by many but he did leave us his songs and best of all he left us so many memories. Rest in Eternal Peace Mr. B.J. Thomas. Mr. Miller I also want to Thank You Sir for Your Service and God Bless You and Keep You Healthy. 🙏🏻 Peace Always from someone in New Mexico.
MR BJ SIR we truly miss you🥲but we all thank you for the years of beautiful music you left for us to enjoy. You may not be here with us right now but trust me when I say we will all be enjoying your music.
Kind Man, Beautiful Voice, Great Artist, Class Act! 15 Top 40 Hits, 10 Top 40 Country Hits, 5 Grammys, 11 Gold Records, over 100 Albums!!! Shame on you Rock and Roll Hall of Shame!!! Shame!!!! Shame!!!
Just like Elvis Presley and Don Williams, BJ Thomas was not a prolific songwriter but had excellent taste in choosing consistently great songs to record and all three had countless hit singles of timeless quality.
B.J Thomas was one of countless artists in the music industry struggling with pill addiction. Thank God he managed to clean up his life. One of music's finest singers and so versatile, equally brilliant singing Country and Pop as Gospel and Easy Listening. May you rest in heavenly peace, brother.
I love you J times I love his music I love all the songs you sing rain drops falling while I had somebody done somebody wrong song a lullaby I just love all his music I think hes a wonderful resistant and artists that Russia BJJ
BJ Thomas was an excellent singer and artist with an impeccable taste in choosing just the right songs. Not a particular prolific songwriter, he relied instead on some of the best songwriters around to come up with the goods and they sure did! Equally at home singing Country and Pop as Easy Listening and Gospel, this man had tremendous commercial success but he's artistic achievement were of the highest order as well. May you rest in heavenly peace brother and thanks for the music.
I sure wish B.J. would record If You could Read My Mind, written by Gordon Lightfoot. I hear him singing that song in my mind AND it IS BEAUTIFUL beyond words to express. I dearly LOVE B.J. Thomas. I think B.J. means BEAUTIFUL JEWELL!! HE MY BRO!!!
Many people label BJ Thomas as an Easy Listening artist and although he WAS a superb Easy Listening artist that's selling the man short. He recorded Pop, Country and Gospel with equal finesse and class and he was equally successful in every style he tried his stellar vocal pipies on.
YES YA'ALL, WITH B.J. THOMAS, ELVIS PRESLEY, TOM JONES AND CHARLIE RICH...THEN THAT'S IT..THIS BUS STOPS HERE...BECAUSE THEY JUST CAN'T BE TOPPED..THEY'RE ALL, SIMPLY, IN A CLASS, ALL BY THEMSELVES...
Bacharach/David are probably the greatest songwriting duo in pop and Raindrops.....is just one of their countless gems. BJ Thomas had the Greatest voice ever and always had an impeccable taste in choosing the songs he recorded.
I hope BJ knew how much his music meant to his fans.
RIP BJ THOMAS
never have seen anyone who can make a lyric so easily and smoothly. he is amazing.
Hello how are you doing my friend
One of the best vocalist of all time.
I agree with you
Tim Trozzo and after all these years, still singing great!
God has graced us with BJ Thomas

Love you BJ I know today may 29 , 2021 You are now with Jesus singing with the angels. Thanks for all the blessings your comforting voice brought to my life.

From the first note you know who the singer is.a very special sound.

Some singers don’t musically age very well, but BJ sounds as great as he did back in the 60’s!!!!!!
It's lonely out tonight and the feeling just got right for another UA-cam session with the peerless BJ Thomas!
