- This clip is different to anything I've done before. This is a song that I wrote when I was a songwriter and producer. My cowriter, Larry Jenkins and I wrote a song for former Blood Sweat and Tears lead singer, David Clayton-Thomas.
During the session Pete Drake offered to cover the song the next time he recorded with BJ Thomas.

I loved raindrops keep falling on my head and somebody done somebody wrong song
Me too Jake..... Best, Joe
YES! Raindrops is one of my favorites 💗
The beautiful, unmistakable, flawless voice of B J Thomas. Oh! are we gonna miss you!
You left a tremendous body of grade A+ work, but the most important to me were your
gospel records. They got me thru many a dark night. Rest in peace, music man, and man
of God.
Thanks Nelg.... Pete Drake produced many of those great Gospel recordings on B.J..... Best, Joe

Beautiful Song Joe! 🙏 Great pics too. R.I.P. BJ
Hi Joe, beautiful song...nice job,Sir!!!
B.J.will always be one of my faves...
Thanx for the Memories...
My oldest brother was in High School in the late 60's-early 70's.He bought all B.J.Thomas 45 singles at the local corner drug store in Saginaw, MI. He played them over and over till they where white. And he bought them again and played till no end! That's when we lived in Michigan. All those records came back to the Central San Joaquin Valley in a small town near Fresno! Great memories! RIP Texan, B.J. Thomas!
Didn't know he passed till i saw this. Sad to hear, great guy. RIP
Thank you Joe. B.J was a diamond. May he rest in peace. From Ireland 🇮🇪
Thanks Robert.... Joe
A great loss indeed, reflecting on the first time i heard ' eyes of a New York Woman' it was a moving experience , you know one of those songs that give one a sense of saddness and longing Yet elevate you to that special musical place that just a few singers could do, BJ was one of the Best and since the news broke of his passing Our house and studio have been filled with the sound of his voice, words can never convey my gratitude to you Joe for all you do in sharing your most remarkable videos along with memories You are Loved and from us here in pacific Canada Long may you run Big Thanks to MHoFM
Incredibly kind of you LSAC.... Best, Joe
I did not know of BJ Thomas passing until now when I saw your post, Thank you for this beautiful tribute, So sorry for this great loss,
Thanks for watching Nancy..... Joe
One of my all-time favorite vocalist. I didn’t learn of his passing until just now and had no idea that he was even sick. We’re all here for just a moment in time, then gone. RIP BJ Thomas, see you on the other side.
GOD, I loved this man all my life.....Take care of him up in heaven......we will surely miss u...RIP, BJ...
Thanks tj.... Joe
I have been an avid fan of B.J. Saw him in concert only once. Bough most of his recording from the late 70's and all of the 80s. His voice was a wonder. And like Elvis, he didn't sound like anyone else.
I had never heard this magnificent song before. Thanks for sharing it. And I never saw pictures of Gloria before either.
His death was like a strike to my solar plexus.
Thanks for sharing your comments Tim..... Joe
BJ fez parte de minha época de jovem, jovem na igreja
Ele era referência pra nós crentes ( jovens), na década de 90, era benção demais
Vai deixar saudade!!
Lila here..yes he was a devout Christian..he was featured on my first compilation gospel album purchased in the 80s and as a newly born again Christian serving in music ministry, I fell in love w his beautiful annointed voice..he was an impactful influence..ty Lord for blessing us w the beautiful gifts you gave him..prayers for the family 💗
Touching song!
Man, the hardest thing is have so many musicians that we've been enjoying for 50, even 60 years leaving us behind! Thank you RIP BJT
Thanks for watching Logan.... Joe
I heard the sad news about BJ’s passing. I could write a book about all the good times I had with his music. I put his music on that day in my shop and had a wonderful time reminiscing about the good ole days. Thank you BJ. Your songs live on in my heart and many others.
Thanks Sarge.... Joe
Great singer, history has proven that. And what a superb song to which he did justice. Nicely done in all aspects - vocals, arrangements, supporting cast. Thanks for sharing with us.
Thanks Roger…… Joe

He had a wonderfully distinctive voice. Now he's with Jesus. My condolences to his friends and family.
It's neat when people use the gifts God gives them. It always leads to good things. This guy, human like us all, found his niche in life. Well, done, BJ Thomas. God Bless.
Thanks for watching and sharing your thoughts C C.... Joe
I remember back in the late sixties I was in Nashville.printers ally..curly Chalker was a friend he was in the band.I was a newbie in Nashville.I’m sitting near the stage
These two guys came in and flop down right there at my table? It was B.J.Thomas and Bobby Goldsboro...Bobby did his famous cricket sound.
Soon they were gone to the club next door! Ahahahahaha love the memory.
@@brendakayeperry6860 Hey that's cool. My oldest sister got me hooked on Bobby Goldsboro way back when I was a kid in the 60's. He was very versatile. Great singer/song writer. Still love his stuff. We really lucked out having so much talent back then. And the music lives on. Thanks for your story. That's a keeper.
RIP BJ ❤️🌹
I love this song from B.J. Thomas. It was on B.J's the "Great American Dream" CD which I own. Great Pictures of B.J. Thomas. Rest In Peace, BJ!!!
Beautiful tribute RIP BJ.
An older friend turned me onto B.J. in the early 90s I always wanted him to have a few more hit songs. GREAT voice. Always reminded me of Elvis.
Yeah, like Elvis. Personally, I like his rendition of "Love Me Tender" better than the Elvis version. I don't think Elvis minds my saying so. He had a couple of hits all to himself anyway.
rest in peace dear and beloved singer - your music is so wonderful
One of the true greats ~ Rest In Peace B.J.🌹🌅❣️
Thanks for watching William….Joe
This is beautiful. Thanks! Saw BJ in concert in 1984. Always marveled on how he could sing so flawless with such ease. I have 1500+ vinyl LPs (rock, jazz, CCM, etc) and have more of BJ than any other single artist or band. We were blessed to have been entertained by the likes of a BJ Thomas. He had no equal. He will be missed.
I agree Randy... B.J was as good as they come. Thanks for watching...Joe
Beautiful song, Joe. Great title. RIP BJ Thomas. Your legacy will live on.

Thanks for watching Joan…. Joe
@@MusiciansHallofFameMuseum You're very welcome!! 💖
Good front man. I'll take that gig. BJ Thomas!
Thanks for watching N A.... Joe
Once upon a time, Houston had a great music scene. My fathers’ best friend from Austin HS was a young songwriter named Frank Zambon. His mother in law lived just a few houses down the street from me (where I still live today, in fact) but you folks know him as Mark James. He wrote a good hit for BJ Thomas called “Hooked on Feeling”, another one for Elvis, and a big hit for Willie Nelson as well. But you folks already know all that! I remember him visiting us when I was little, he seemed like a real decent guy. Also, my uncle’s best friend and best man at his wedding was Steve Tyrell- pretty well known singer of jazz standards and such. Another great guy!
Thanks for sharing Reversible… Joe
While on vacation from SF in 75, we saw him perform twice the same night at Disneyland. He was emaciated but got better later in his life. Wonderful performer!
Thanks for watching Sue.... yes he had substance problems during those years but thankfully he recovered. Best, Joe
I'm 31 years clean & sober so i know his struggle and the life he lived after active addiction. Thank you for your response.
RIP BJ 💐 🎶 💙
BJ...RIP. My all time favorite.
Thanks for watching Linda... Joe
Beautiful song and words !! Sensationally and magically sung by a TOP PERFORMER, B J THOMAS -- RIP 💜
Thanks Michael… Best, Joe
Thank you Joe for your awesome presentation. B.J. Thomas was really big in late 60s and 70s....R.I.P.
Thanks for watching Ivan.... Joe
Beautiful song done to perfection by Mr Thomas. When it started all I could think of was, "Did you really need all those strings?" :-)
I've forgotten who asked that. I think it was about He Stopped Loving Her Today. As I said, a beautiful song done to perfection.
I was shocked by the news of his passing. I wasn't aware of his lung cancer diagnosis so it caught me by surprise. I too am seventy-eight so each of these is a reminder of the fragile nature of life no matter how resilient we think we are.
At least his great recordings live on. Thanks, Joe.
Thanks Ed... Joe
What a great song Jo , B.J was blessed with Fantastic voice,!! thing is he knew How to use it,!! he had a great range ,loved all he produced , he will be missed thats for sure , first time I heard this song, what a treat!! RIP BJ ,thank you so much, for the music,

Real sorry for your loss, Joe. I've always loved the song..
Thanks TooL ooze... Joe
One of the great voices! He could sing just about any genre. Thank you for this tribute Joe. ❤️❤️
The late great B. J. Thomas.
Today I recieved in mail one of the last copies of the sheet music, "Raindrops Keep Falling" autographed by B.J. during his illness.
It will be a treasured framed keepsake and Memorial on my wall to this talented artist and Christian man.
That’s so cool Michael... thanks for sharing... Best, Joe
Thank you Joe, Beautiful composition.
Thanks again Michael.... Joe
A true measure of a man and what a voice.....RIP
Thanks for watching Laura…. Joe
Hello Laura how are you doing!!
Great song and we'll done by BJ Thomas. Kind of has an Alabama vibe. Would be nice to hear Home Free cover it, too.
Someone listed a poll on the Net who they thought is/were the three best singers of all time. My choices were #1: Karen Carpenter - no doubt about it she was the best of the best. My #2 choice: BJ Thomas - such an extraordinary voice - he always sent your emotions into high gear whatever he sang and #3: Engelbert Humperdinck. The man has an incredible voice. RIP Karen and BJ - the world misses you so much but endless thanks for your voices from Heaven itself. You are LEGEND. Thanks for the video.
Gonna miss that voice RIP BJ
Me too Jim... not another B.J... best, Joe
Beautiful song....and the inimitable b. J. Thomas interpretation. Pete Drake a great producer. B. J. Worked with some of the best producers and song writers.....in the music industry.

Hello Maratha how are you doing!!
Growing up in Bridgeport, near Saginaw, my sister and I would often buy records in downtown Saginaw. She moved to Ca. in 1969. She now lives in a town near Fresno, Hanford, Ca.
Gorgeous song and performance.
Sweet tribute, Joe. A great voice...now for the ages.

RIP BJ Thomas
Thanks for watching Cowboy….joe
You are welcome! 🤠
Great song, great production, great vocals. Pete Drake just knew how to perfectly complement the singer and the song, he didn't do a lot here but what he did do is intrinsic. It reminds me of the long slide he did on Charlie Rich's "Most Beautiful Girl" , that single string slide up the fret board is an essential lick whoever does that song, it wouldn't be the same without it. Genius .
Thanks for sharing your thoughts Shooter…. Joe C.
Thank You!

Sad to hear this news.
