“I Just Can’t Help Believing” #9 8/22/1970

A former #1 easy listening hit from B.J. Thomas by the superb songwriters Barry Mann and Cynthia Weil. Bobby Vee actually recorded the song first a year earlier. Elvis made this one a part of his stage shows for many years. B.J. also had great success with Mann and Weil’s “Rock And Roll Lullaby” and also did their “Here You Come Again” before Dolly Parton turned it into a huge hit.
