    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!🙏🙌😔🙌😢🙌😪🙌😭🙌❤

      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.

    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

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!

    Great artists let their songs carry the centre stage and never let their own ego or person overshadow the songs themselves. Too many artists these days put themselves forward and seek the spotlight with mediocre songs. BJ Thomas was the real McCoy and let his songs take centre stage and faced with such great songs that was a wise thing to do. Easily among the Top 10 Greatest singers/ performers during the last 50 years. May you rest in heavenly peace brother. Your music is timeless and will last forever.
