Song: Raindrops Keep Fallin On My Head
Song by: B.J. Thomas

Hi! I’m Gail Nobles! Today’s topic is about a hot number one single of the 1970s. I’m going to talk about B.J. Thomas, “Raindrops Keep Fallin’ On My Head”. It was a single that reached No.1 on charts in the United States, Canada and Norway, and reached No. 38 in the UK Singles Chart. It topped the Billboard Hot 100 for four weeks in January 1970 and was also the first American No. 1 hit of the 1970s. Billboard ranked it as the No. 4 song of 1970.

The song was still being played after 1970. I remember hearing it all the time, and I remember everybody was singing it in the 70s. My family members & some of my classmates were always singing it. The song was released in 1969. I think of the song sometimes now when it rains. The song was written by Burt Bacharach and Hal David.
