When I was about 10yrs old, I remember watching my mother teach my father how to dance to your music in our living room.❤ I miss my parents, I've gone to a couple of your concerts alone in memory of them. ❤

One of my favorite Italian songs is, A di la, written by Carlo Donita. Always stirred emotions in me. I always have loved the way you deliver a song. Your strong voice, with such feeling. I feel music, and now understand the work you put into choosing and arranging your song choices. I look forward to your stories on Tuesday's and Friday's. You spoke of Lee Marvin. I buried Ralph 3 years ago, he rests near Lee Marvin at Arlington Cemetary. Ralph served with Lee Marvin, Glenn Ford and Tyrone Power in WW2. Marvin stayed in touch through the years with several of the men he served with. Ralph had a triple purple heart and a double purple heart . Marvin was also honored with a purple heart. I was 29 yrs. younger, but had 32 years together.

My Sweetheart, the Great Love of My Life, and I danced to The Last Waltz thousands and thousands of times. We only had 35 years together when the Lord called him home. He would sing me to sleep with your beautiful Love Songs. Such happy💝memories. Thanks Mr. E.💝💝💝💝💝💝💝 (Now YOU "SING ME TO SLEEP" every night...😊💝💝💝😊. 💝 your voice and music for 50 years 😊💝!

Just heard this about your songs today while cooking miniature hamburgers for my 5 yr old granddaughter. It sounds like a great collection of songs. Hello from Arkansas. Will try to find this one around here.

I love this album as much as the previous five. The vocal performances here are second to none. Anyone who’s got a good set of ears will be able to clearly hear that.

How nostalgic! Great singer, great songs, and I remember all of them. Loved "everybody's talking". Nice hearing from you today.

To me, 'Love Me With All Of Your Heart' is your best song, ever.

[karenlytle]

Love the music, memories of Jerry Vale, George Harrison, all the memories

Дорогой Энгельберт! Не только ваше пение, но и ваш рассказ слушать, одно удовольствие!

[monikamax]

just love to look at this charming Mr. Engelbert: as he speaks, sings, smiles, laughs ... This improves the mood.

Greetings from Nashville Mr. Humperdinck! I’ve always loved your music.

[JerryPaulTreeCreations]

"Love Me With All Of Your Heart", has got to be one of my favorite songs of all time. It's one of many Engelbert songs that I've memorized. Such a beautiful and powerful song.
I remember singing it to the mother of my daughter shortly after we met. ... A little less than a year later, our daughter was born. ;) :) <3
Thank you, Engelbert. Through the words I had learned from listening to your songs, a new and beautiful life was brought into this world. I love my daughter and her mother, who sadly passed away last fall, with all of my heart.

[phyllisriffey]

Oh yes you can love me with your heart lol

Happy Flashback Friday Engelbert. You look wonderful and are so animated as you relate your stories regarding this great album "We made it happen". I especially love your heartwarming story about your son Scott proclaiming "daddy, daddy" whenever he saw an airplane overhead. Your renditions of those Italian melodies melts my heart every time and I can listen to "Love me with all your heart" and "Love for Love" a new discovery, over and over again. Just listened to your rendition of "Raindrops" and I love it. Who says that you are really not supposed to swivel your hips on stage. You don't have to be a professional dancer, you just have to enjoy and have fun performing "My wife the dancer" and if you have fun, we also have fun and enjoyment with you. Your memory is fantastic and so impressive and I look forward to seeing and hearing you on each and every Flashback episode. Again a great album cover showing your beautiful face and expressive beautiful hands. P.S. I will be cheering for England to win the Euro Soccer match this coming Sunday. Wishing you all the best in good health and happiness. With love, Henia, Toronto.

Another great album! Maybe put “We Made It Happen” in your show one day, as well as “Love Me With All Your Heart”. This album brings me back to my carefree teenage years. Love the stories behind your albums!
