Raindrops Keep Fallin' On My Head - B. J. Thomas - MP3 instrumental karaoke

Written by Burt Bacharach and Hal David, "Raindrops Keep Fallin' on My Head" found fame in the 1969 film Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid and won Burt Bacharach an Oscar for Best Original Score. Famously recorded in seven takes, due to Burt Bacharach's dislike of the first six, "Raindrops Keep Fallin' on My Head" became a hit for B.J. Thomas who topped the charts in the US, Canada, Norway as well as reaching Number 38 on the UK Singles Chart. It became the first American Number 1 single of the 1970s and won an Oscar for Best Original Song. The carefree, positive-looking song is a celebration of letting go and feeling free of worries, entrenched in the chorus: "Raindrops keep fallin' on my head / But that doesn't mean my eyes will soon be turnin' red / Cryin's not for me / 'Cause I'm never gonna stop the rain by complainin' / Because I'm free / Nothing's worryin' me."
