Start Jamming...
And hi everybody, welcome back to the Home Shopping Club.
I'm Alan Scantz.
And over here, for 25 years, number one to a lot of people.
Hi Engelbert.
Hi Alan, how you doing?
Good to see you.
Nice to be on the show with you.
Oh, you've had two shows today already.
Yes, I was on with your wife as well.
I know.
And with the lovely Robin, too, you know.
See, my wife looked at me and said,
Oh, hi honey, out the door.
She's singing, please release me.
Way to go.
Am I that easy to forget?
What did you sing in that one?
Oh, she was the last waltz I think she'll give me tonight.
Oh, as long as it's not There Goes My Everything.
Oh, she was, it [E] was, everything came out today.
[Am] If you haven't heard about it, Engelbert Humperdinck's,
his brand new album, Hello There,
will be featured here tonight in about 25 minutes.
We have the genuine cologne coming out
that you took a couple years to help invent.
Yes, about four years in fact.
It was a long time.
I went through the whole procedure very, very carefully
and there's a lot of me put inside that bottle, I promise you.
How do you celebrate 25 years doing what you do so [E] well?
Well, you know, we've been all over the world this year,
you know, celebrating the 25th anniversary,
which not too many people have that pleasure of doing,
you know what I mean?
You know, because I never rest on my laurels or anything like that.
I just get out there and I try to be,
as if I've just started in the business.
That's how I go out there, you know?
Last night, we had dinner [F] last night.
It was fun, wasn't it?
It [Gm] was a riot.
Your poetry [A] just stopped me right off.
I did one on the show today.
Did you?
Yeah.
We might hear something like that again.
Oh, if you wish.
Maybe.
Okay, we want to start out,
this is a very special presentation tonight.
Before we get to the great cassettes and CD
by Engelbert Humperdinck, I want you to see the T-shirt.
This is the official 25-year T-shirt
that we want to feature with Engelbert.
The word romance so alive on TV and radio.
Well, there's [E] no other music that can communicate,
get people together more than a romantic song.
I mean, I [Db] love up-tempo music, you know,
but when you're speaking of love and romance
and you're touching on the subject of love,
[A] it really shines through.
You make the connection that way.
What do you think has been the key
to keeping your marriage so successful?
[E] It's definitely not being apart,
because I'm [Abm] always away from home.
Sometimes I'll go home and I knock on the door,
she'll say, [E] yes, can I help you?
[Em] I met Scott.
Scott, his son, is such [A] a gentleman.
And there's no air about when you folks came to visit us.
We were like [E] regular people.
I mean, it's such a joy to see you
and then your son with that subtlety that he [Dbm] has.
But making everybody feel so invited to be next to [Db] him
and talk about anything they'd like to.
Well, my wife has been [Gb] an absolute gem, you know,
for all these years,
and I've had a lot of adverts, publicity, etc.,
but we won't talk about that right now.
But she has, she has been a gem of a lady,
and [A] I love her.
I [E] want everybody who hasn't been able
to grab this CD or cassette tonight,
it's available and coming up in a few minutes,
the incredible brand new one
that is [Abm] skyrocketing in the charts in Europe, I take it, right?
[E] Yes, it's doing well in Europe.
Pretty well.
Yeah.
And this is the first, I'm hoping that my next album,
this album that's coming out,
the hell about that.
Yeah.
You see, it's the first time it's been out in this country,
[Em] and for it to be a hit on home shopping,
it's going to be one of the greatest [Eb] assets I'll ever have.
There might be a bullet with home shopping here.
Oh my God, wouldn't that be great?
Hi, you're on the show with Engelbert [F] Humperdinck.
Who's this, please?
[Dm] Betty. Betty, Illinois.
Hi, Betty, how [F] are you?
I'm fine, thank you.
Say hello to [Bb] Engelbert.
Hello, how are you?
Hi, Betty, where are you from?
From Mount Lockport, Illinois, [F] just outside of Joliet.
We're waiting for you to come back
to our beautiful Rialto again.
Oh yeah, well, maybe one day, close.
Well, we hope it will be soon.
Yeah, how'd you like what we're doing?
Oh, [Eb] I love it.
Yeah, I've never been on television
for such a long time in my whole life.
Well, the [D] only thing missing, you know,
we just wish you were [Dm] performing.
I [F] wish I was performing?
Right, we could sit here and watch.
Can you hear me singing?
Well, yes, in the background, [E] but we wish you were doing it.
Well, I can't do [Eb] both.
I can't talk and sing at the same [Ebm] time.
I love the sound of her voice.
[Bb] She sounds great.
What's your first name again?
Betty.
Betty.
See, I remember.
[A] Engelbert, remember that poem you did last night?
Yeah, I [Eb] did, I did, yeah.
That was such a moment.
Chris, we came home last night,
and we kept talking about [A] that poem.
She made me do it.
She did?
She made me do it on the show this morning.
Is there a chance you could do that again?
[D] Well, not that [Gb] particular one.
Oh, that was
You liked that one the best.
I think it's going to put Betty in the right situation.
Oh, really?
Betty.
[A] You're putting me on the spot now, right?
Betty.
Yes?
How are you, Betty?
I'm fine.
Would you like to fall absolutely to the floor?
Oh, sure.
Is there a chance you could do it, Engelbert?
You want me to do it again?
Could you?
Why not?
The same poem?
They haven't seen it on this network yet.
Oh, they haven't?
Right.
All right.
Stay as warm as you are,
and blessed is the hour of love.
No invention creates a better sound of the making.
Gazing on your softness to recapitulate moments ago,
moments of incredibility in the giving of all in all
from kiss to come a living thing.
Knowing not what bears within
what tingle turns your head to smile.
The light reflects the sadness in your eyes.
Hold me, and it will pass.
No moons afold to wish upon,
no stars to guide our dreams.
So let us sleep and remember yesterday.
