I went to the same High School as BJ , but different years. I used to see him in the County Fairs and around the local pool halls. Everybody knew that he was going to make it. His very first local hit was "Lazy Man". He, Roy Head and Kenny Rogers started at the same time. He had a very distant voice and I could identify immediately. I had just returned from Vietnam when "Hooked on a Feeling" came out and I was so proud to let everyone know that I knew him. I love all his music and will always remember him. RIP

This is the first time I've heard BJ Thomas sing his version of this song, and as always, it's amazing, just like everything else he ever sang. I will be 60 at the end of this year, and I have loved BJ Thomas since I first heard him sing. I also saw him perform at a Billy Graham crusade in Reno, Nevada in the late 70's, and although I know I'll see him in heaven, I miss him so much - it's so hard when the great ones pass away😔 So until I see him again on the other side, these wonderful videos will have to do. Rest in peace in His loving arms❤
