Had the pleasure of meeting this awesome man some years back and have a photo of him with his arm around me...such an honor. Special person, he dedicated all his songs to his beautiful, loving wife who has stood by him as her vows state, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, forsaking all others as long as we both shall live. She is definitely what makes him complete.
Killer job! Usually, I don't like a song that drags on too long, this is an exception. I always loved this song, but it needed some grown up lyrics to replace the teenie bopper lyrics that Brian Wilson penned. BJT did the tune up that was needed, BJ sings like a man with passion for his lady.
Good love Song Bj Thomas Good job love it good song good job love it great song!!! Helping Their Loved Ones Get through Problems and Solving them getting to be with their Love ones and just being Happy Great Love Song About That. 🙂👍🎶
DON'T EVER MESS WITH A LION UNLESS YOU'RE ONE YOURSELF...HE WON'T GIVE UP...OR GIVE IN. SOMETHING MAGESTIC AND POWERFUL INDEED...AND LOVED BEYOND MEASURE. 💖💥
From Houston, Texas! B.J. got his start in the 60's with Hooked On A Feeling and Raindrops Keep Falling On My Head.. His voice is legendary. Like Gary Puckett and Jay Black, B.J. is the real deal that time cannot harm his God given vocal talents.
My Uncle Mike Loved This Song, He Passed March 28 2016 . So Every Time I Listen To It I Think About Him & I Missss Him So Much, But He Is With Me Forever In My Heart!!!! Love You Mike Ruiz!!!
This tune is so kewl. I first heard it over the radio in Hawaii, when as a 16-year-old, I went to work over there in the summer of 1977 . It came out in August of that year. I went to the beach and was greeting by strong waves and grains of sand. Brings back lots of memories of my teenagehood years. Seemed like yesterday.
On this day in 1977 {June 26th} "Don't Worry Baby" by B.J. Thomas entered Billboard's Hot Top 100 chart at position #86; and on September 18th, 1977 it peaked at #17 {for 2 weeks} and it also spent 17 weeks on the Top 100... It reached #2 on Billboard's Adult Contemporary Tracks chart... Between 1966 and 1983 he had twenty-six Top 100 records; with five making the Top 10 and two reaching #1; "Raindrops Keep Fallin' On My Head" for 4 weeks in 1970 and "(Hey Won't You Play) Another Somebody Done Somebody Wrong Song" for 1 week in 1975... Mr. Thomas will celebrate his 72nd birthday in two months on August 7th, 2014...
I love this song he does it so beautifully and I believe he deserves a Grammy just for holding that note at the end as long as he did. Absolutely magificent.love him always.
I've been studying this song, this Brian Wilson/Beach Boys classic. And B.J. Billy Joel and even Lorrie Morgan among so many others who sing it make it a winner. This song is so perfect that no matter who sings it, it is great. The bass line and the drum line that drive the song is so strong that a dog could bark it out and it would sound great.
RIP BJ🙏🏾🙏🏽🙏🏼 watching Memorial Day weekend and loving your patriotic shirt and mourning your loss 😢 peace and blessings to all your loved ones and fans🌟💫✨
so underrated..my gosh..this guys voice is awesome..with more control than even elvis..i have alwayz though bj had a prettier voice than elvis..but elvis was a rocker. and could out rock and dance bj..still bj deserve more props than hes received.
Still listening in 2022. A unique voice and incredible range. Love this live version. This song will always bring back awesome memories of growing up in the 70's and spinning this 45 on the record player. Rest in Peace, BJ. Your music lives on forever.
I love this DVD - The best of B.J.Thomas LIVE - He is one class act and his voice amazing!!! There is only one thing better and that is hearing him LIVE !!! B.J.Thomas ! Nós iremos te amar para todo e sempre !!!!
Yes I agree this guy was always underrated. Not sure why he has a superb voice and phrasing. Maybe his management wasn't so good back then but he sure still has talent, he sounds just as good older as he did when younger.
Didnt know he did this...Very good singing BJ. They are both very good. Dont think he sings it better then the Beach Boys, but still very good version. Thx for posting
sigue cantando lindo a pesar de que los años han pasado no pierde su calidad y ademas sigue guapìsimo te felicito B.J. desde Perù COngratulations we love you
@blueticecho You should never change the lyrics when you do other people's songs. It was written that way for a reason. Dennis Wilson used to race his corvette and brag about how fast it was. The lyrics reflect that. On another note, B J Thomas still has an amazing voice after all these years. Thanks for posting.
The strange thing is I heard BJ Thomas' version first. I didn't know until a few years later that was written by Brian Wilson, recorded by the Beach Boys.
as a lifelong beach boys fan, i can say this is a great interpretation. he originally covered this back in the 70s if i remember right. and bj thomas still has it!
Really love this version and his beautiful distinctive voice. Still love the Beach Boys original and Billy Joel does a great cover. BJ also sings I'm Gonna Make You Love Me which I have always loved.
