Engelbert Humperdinck Knocks The Socks Off of Fans in Singapore

International music legend Engelbert Humperdinck knocked the socks off of fans with his performance in Singapore this past Friday, July 15th. The Straits Times was in the audience to capture all of the fun!

He belted them out all right, from the swoonsome “Last Waltz” to the pensive “After The Lovin'”to the chart-topping “Please Release Me.” But he bundled four of his very best – “The Way It Used To Be,” “Les Bicyclettes De Belsize,” “There Goes My Everything” and “Spanish Eyes” – into a medley.

“Applause is the food of artists. Thanks for not starving me,” he said at the end of “Please Release Me.” How the fans cheered, likely recalling how, at the age of 25, he almost died of tuberculosis from malnutrition. His mantra is reportedly “move forward” and he did so this evening by keeping his audience guessing as to where he would lead them next.

Before launching into his sixth song, “Quando, Quando, Quando,” he played a video clip of Dean Martin sparring with him, with Humpy sporting the super- thick sideburns that Elvis Presley stole and made his own look. Then, a la Natalie Cole and her late father Nat King Cole on their song Unforgettable, he sang “Something About The Way You Look Tonight” with the recorded voice of Elton John, who had done that duet with him on his 80th album, Engelbert Calling.
