    I think he's most known for "Release Me," which is a breakup song. "After the Loving" is really sexy, so is "Spanish Eyes." Two waltz songs are "The Last Waltz" and "Les Bicyclettes de Belsize," both my Mom absolutely loved to dance to. "Quando Quando Quando" is a lot of fun and "Am I That Easy to Forget" and a real crooner.

    With your love of crooners, it was only a matter of time before you got to Englebert! "Release Me" is one of his best, and doing a live version is the way to go if you react to it. You could also do "The Last Waltz", "Am I That Easy to Forget", "There Goes My Everything" and "Sweetheart." Mr. H is now 86 years young and still going. P.S. PLEASE do some Tony Bennett... "I Left My Heart in San Francisco" will have Amber swaying!

    He had a great voice just like Tom Jones of the same era. His real name is Jerry Dorsey. The producers chose Englebert Humperdinck because they thought it would set him apart. A truly classy voice. If you guys love the 60's then you should try Dion and the Belmonts, Gene Pitney, and others of the earlier part of the decade.

    It's been said that Engelbert was the saddest man on both sides of the Atlantic Ocean. From the UK, he specialized in heartbreak and bad-romance ballads such as this one. You can do a deep dive into his discography and come up with hit after hit. BTW, his good looks and wonderful voice certainly earned him a loyal and wide cadre of female fans. It was a tossup between him and Tom Jones as to who had the most passionate lady fans.

    Goosebumps even now. Very good idea, guys, to check him out because Engelbert was Tom Jones’ rival. They both have very strong voices, Eng’s one is a touch more velvety. And he was very handsome too, which thing didn’t hurt 😍 Being a lifelong catholic, his stage presence was subdued in contrast with « Tom and his Jones » … maybe this was the cause for less underware having been thrown at him, but he still had a huge number of paternity cases. He’s a major name of the era with many hits.

    A little insight to Mr. Humperdinck: I was visiting a Ft. Worth hospital in the '80's and saw the hugest, most beautiful flower arrangement in the lobby. An aide told me they were a gift from Englebert during a concert appearance in town, and it was his habit to do so in most cities he visited. What a caring human being. My personal favorite of his is "Le Bicyclettes del Belsize."

    He was my grandma's favorite. She went to his concert in Vegas and was pulled onstage where she sang with him. She proclaimed it the greatest moment of her life.

    Great singer. So many songs to choose from. I was born in 1975, but my Dad listened to this guy all the time, in the car when i was a child. So i am very familiar with his music.👍🏻 A winter world of love, Release me,We fell in love, on the wings of a silver bird, Ten guitars, les bicyclette de belsize,Quando quando quando,Spanish eyes, love me with all of your heart. The last waltz. To name but a few.

    Just saw him in concert this past Friday here in Las Vegas. The man is 86 and still has it. The voice is still there and he remembers all his lyrics. That is amazing for his age. Go see him while you can.

    He was a great singer and also a great man, married his sweetheart in 1964 after first meeting her when she was 17 in 1957 ish . He became her only carer full time due to Alzheimers in recent years , it broke his heart that she gradually started to forget him . He said he used to lie and cradle her in his arms hoping she knew and remembered how much he loved her but towards the end i think the illness had progressed too far . Sadly she contracted covid and died in 2021 .Their love story warms your heart they were devoted to one another .

    'Gerry Dorsey' almost had a career in the 1950's, but it wasn't until he changed his stage name to Englebert Humperdink (Englebert Humperdinck is the name of a famous German classical Composer) that his career took off in the '60's. 'Please release me' was his biggest hit, 'Love me with all of your heart' and 'The Last Waltz' made him top of the bill in the late '60's!

    As a kid in elementary school back in the day, I loved Engelbert Humperdinck. I think it was his name that I loved most but I loved his singing too.

    I haven’t heard Engelbert Humperdinck in decades! Love his voice! I used to have an aunt who followed him all over the country to be at all his concerts.

    Eng's real name is Arnold George Dorsey. He had some success as Gerry Dorsey in the UK clubs.
    With a name change and his hit Release Me, he was able to keep The Beatles - Strawberry Fields Forever/ Penny Lane off the number one position in the UK hit parade/charts.
    My Nanna loved him. Even more than she did Tom Jones, so you know he had something the ladies liked.

    Believe it or not, Engelbert Humperdink is a stage name adopted by Arnold George Dorsey (Humperdink) which was suggested to him by Gordon Mills (manger of Tom Jones) in 1965. Mills liked the sound of the name and "borrowed" it from the 19th-century German composer, Engelbert Humperdink. "Spanish Eyes," "Release Me," and "The Last Waltz," are just a few of his greats. Also check out Matt Monro's "On Days Like These."

    Engelbert was my dad's favourite. I grew up dancing by myself in our living room to Release Me, Les Bicyclettes de Belsize, Quando Quando Quando, Spanish Eyes, The Last Waltz... so many great memories associated to that dreamy voice. PLEASE you need to react to more Engelbert!

    "Love Me With All of Your Heart" was Englebert's biggest and best known song - you will love it.

    This song was featured in the first episode of "Moon Knight".
    He's actually still quite active, and has his own youtube page.
    My dad was a big fan, and I grew up listening to Engelbert. After a while, I couldn't help but notice and appreciate the power he put into the songs he sang.
    "Quando, Quando, Quando", "Spanish Eyes", "Love Me With All Of Your Heart", and "Release Me", are just some of the songs of his that I think you'd really enjoy. One of my favorites is a really fun one... "My Wife The Dancer", is awesome and really fun. (I think I'm actually going to watch it right now, because it's already making me chuckle... lol)
    Awesome reaction, as always. Thank you, both.
    Cheers!

    You made my mom cry. Thank you for playing Engelbert it is her favorite. I grew up listening this man in the background watching Mom shed a tear. I mentioned Engelbert a while back I hope that's where you got it he is the 2.0 of crooning. If you ever get a chance watch an old episode of The Dean Martin show which he is featured in ??both of them singing will drop you. He has plenty of more songs. I'll let you look for them yourself. You need something to do don't you? Lol Quanto Quanto Quanto.

    Loved your reaction to this song and his singing! My mom (now gone 10 years) absolutely LOVED Engelbert! She would play his Christmas album every year at this time - on a regular repeat. Thanks for the warm memory!
    BTW - He was considered quite the "favorite" of the ladies, Amber, so I'm not surprised by your "mild swoon" when he belted out the chorus.
