    I was in the Army in 1966 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

      Loved it in 1968 as a teen. Still love it in 2022. I saw him in The Flying Monkey, a little venue in Plymouth, NH several years back. It was amazing how good he still sounded. And it was sweet the way he talked about his wife.

It's a great song of elation, and it holds up, but wow so does BJ Thomas! He can still nail it in his 70's! And make it look easy. So glad to hear it live, and after all this time.
