@howller This song changed my life too. It's so profoundly beautiful and sorrowful. My sibling died a long time ago. I hardly think of them anymore,but when I listen to this Bj Thomas song I realize,wow,I once had a sibling in this life/ my sort of sad life. I'm not feeling sorry for myself. I just find that this world robs us of our quiet dignity and who we are or were......and then this song.
BJ does this on his album Billy Joe Thomas, with Webb on piano (that album also has Stevie Wonder and Carole King on it). BJ is one of the most under-rated singers from the last 50 years.
How beautiful! Thank you so much for posting! I have never heard this before, such a poingnant song, I wonder who wrote it. I love his Gospel too! All his songs. I think the best of BJ is yet to come, I believe God is going to use him to bring Himself even more glory and point folks the way!
Awesome song and I have loved it since it came out. You were mighty lucky yo have played with BJ Thomas. Such awesome talent !

If you listen to this it might block out all the phoney,ego driven bs that is keeping your soul from crying that cry you've needed for so long.

I toured w/BJ and The Band '75-'77.
The Greatest singer that I've played for, period.
Now, about Carl..
Jimmy Webb (composer-genious) while in the studio, took about 60+ takes, to write & record this piano part...
CARL worked & had it DOWN, in NO time!
Extraordinary musician.. This was my FAVORITE tune, and I never even played on it! Peace !

Wow and thanks for sharing that! It seems BJ is kinda back with us. Do you still play? Yeh, after Elvis, he might be close!
