Just found out he passed away loved his songs mama I'd one of the best songs he will be missed I will play his. Music all day will miss him but his music I will. Keep with me always
I was front row at this concert. At the time they had the steps in the center pulled out from under the stage. BJ stepped down and we shook hands. Even though I've shaken hands with two US presidents and one who would be president but for the fact that he was assassinated, my encounter with BJ seems so much more important. Why? I have no idea. Although I'm holding tickets to his concert scheduled for August 8, 2021 I realize that things really do come to an end. This would have been my fourth concert with BJ but alas, as Brad Paisley opined "There's a last time for everything." How true that is in today's world. Rest in Peace Billy Jo. You deserve more than we can ever give you now. Tom ~ 6/3/2021

Best male voice to sing love ballads that I've heard. Followed and listened to his records since the 60's. A piece of us is lost since his passing. Loved the guy. Always a gentleman and was always on the road constantly. Loved his fans!! Precious wife of over 50 years (Gloria) I believe.
This is one of his best songs I absolutely love it I pray for you BJ Thomas in your health you're one of the most good looking man I've seen in decades I've always thought that of you

Back in 1970, I was a K-9 handler in Vietnam. We normally worked from sundown to sunup. Three of my fellow dog-men and I used to like to unwind and drink our worries away when we were back at our hooch. One of them had an old B.J. Thomas tape with "Mama"; "Billy and Sue", and others, which we wore out. We'd get especially nostalgic when "Mama" came on. We used to say we had three weaknesses: Whiskey, women, and B.J. Thomas... 😁
I wanted to do the same but sadly it was outvoted! It was my mother’s favorite song & one she always asked me to play for her! I hear this beautiful song & I cry, thinking of my “beloved little mama”, too!!! I am so sorry for your loss!♥️
Rest In Peace to this extraordinary entertainer!!! My mom just loved this song ( she has sadly since passed away herself) & I hear this song, immediately thinking of her!!! She used to ask me to put this song on all the time! I hear this song & my tears start to fall immediately in remembrance of my dear mother( used to call her “my little mama”... she was only 4’8 & in remembrance of her favorite song 🎵 “MAMA” by BJ Thomas) who I will miss forever, as I miss BJ Thomas, too! He was amazing & such a loss!♥️
Hi karen, What a beautiful comment. While your MAMA may have been small in stature I have no doubt that she was big at heart; bigger than life to have a daughter who has so much love for her. I was fortunate to have "my mama" for a half century. Yes, she too has gone to the promised land. Stay well karen, Tom
I play this song twice a year... her birthday and mother's day. I miss you every day, Mama, God Bless You. Thank you, B.J. Thomas, for the incredible body of work your career gave us. You're both gone far too young.
May God bless BJ he's gone but we'll never leave our hearts amen and that God bless Gloria I know she misses her my talk to him one time how he missed her
Wow.his voice never faltered.been the same since the 60s.most 60s singers that played in the 2000s all had a peewee herman country voice that they relied on.old man bar cover band voice
