    That was one of two B.J. Thomas songs to hit #1 on the Billboard Hot 100.

    Here is the other one:

    What did they call them before BJ hit the scene?

    Sorry, sorry... :#

    He was a great pop performer. His recording of "A Little Bit of Love" is a guilty pleasure of mine from way back -- and his version of "Raindrops Keep Fallin' on my Head" is one for the ages.
