[@MovieMakingMan]

What a cool story! And what a great guy to think of that! Did you end up with him Kitty? All the best!

[@KittyGrizGriz]

@MovieMakingMan No we didn’t become an “item.” I didn’t have those feelings for him, we were just friends. Yes, it was very ingenious of him. It was my very 1st date. The thing I remember most is riding in the taxi. Ha! 😁 My 2nd time to take one was at age 19, in Dallas, TX; when I interviewed to be a flight attendant. Thank you for asking, you’re very kind. 😀

[@tanyachavis2578]

❤ I had a boyfriend for ten years who still reminds me of B.J. Thomas to this day. Also, this was the first song I learned to sing at 5 years old! My friend and I have lost contact. It was an awesome relationship. Thanks for great memories, B.J., in more ways than one!

[@davidcullen382]

Another masterpiece by Bacharach/David and the right singer to sing it. BJ Thomas had some hits before this, but what he does with this song is simply magical. I loved this song as a youngster and I still love listening it today more than 50 years after its release. Thanks for the great music and memories, BJ Thomas, Burt Bacharach and Hal David...

Rain magically stops when Ed walks up, then begins again when he steps away. Ed even controlled mother nature. :) Good thing this was lip sync as a live microphone might not have ended so well for BJ.

RIP BJ Thomas. I wish I got to see you live when you were alive, but this is the best I can do really. Btw I love it when they perform the whole song front to back with a lot of these “live” performances. When they cut out a verse or two it usually isn’t worth watching.

"Crying's not for me, 'cause I'm never gonna stop the rain by complaining" ...that´s one of my life mottos, and I mean it. Also, "So I just did me some talking to the sun, and I said I didn't like the way he got things done, sleeping on the job", is such a mood, and I find it as one of the most hilarious lyrics ever, and I don´t even know why, it´s just a feeling :) I love this song very much, and with B.J.Thomas´s voice, it´s perfect.

[@willdrucker4291]

It was said that BJ was totally shocked when he got showered from the prop cloud overhead…but he had the number one hit in the country at the time so he took it all in stride both during the performance and afterwards when he shook Ed’s hand….now THAT’S CLASSIC TV

[@wandydeoli5780]

Oh wonderful song

[@moviemonster2083]

That's funny, wherever he goes, the cloud goes with him! I remember this song so well, I was three or so when it came out and in the mall of the apartment building I lived in they would play this song on the sound system. This one and 'Up, Up and Away, in My Beautiful Balloon', which came out contemporaneously. I also remember, 'Those Were the Days, My Friend", for similar reasons. It's funny the things one remembers from one's youth.

When he died recently, I noticed his wife's name, Gloria, and a daughter named Paige. I remembered then that he was on some TV show, and at the end of the song, he and his wife, Gloria, were congratulated by the show's host on their new baby girl Paige. I thought it was Ed Sullivan, but it wasn't after this performance, it seems.
