This CD is a great reminder of the excellent live Engelbert show I witnessed at the Orleans in Vegas this year (2006) on opening night. The track listing is very similar - almost identical. Great show. Great CD. Great job on the classics. Great job on the new material. Great version of My Way. And the song Columns of Gray is an automatic classic in my book. It gives me chills to listen to it's so great.

Engelbert is a living legend and I thank him for the show and for this CD. It's totally amazing!

There are about four other Engelbert concert DVD's available out there to purchase. This is his latest release. The picture and sound quality of this product is the best of them all...and I know, because I own all of them!
He is 71 now, and looking tired and often worn out. He did not sing the old hits very well during this taping, however, he closed the show with an incredible version of "My Way". Long overdue, he brought back his ultimate power to finish off a difficult song as only Humperdinck can....it brought back memories of his old concerts back in the late '70's, when he was powerful and truly gave every show "his all"....lately, he has been on "cruise control"....
Finally, he gets five stars from me on this DVD for singing old obscure songs from his old LP's...such as "The Last of the Romantics" and "Love Me With All of Your Heart".
If you are a Humperdinck fan...this is a must purchase!

Oh how I enjoyed this dvd of engelbert live. From start to finish engelbert is just sensational. Every song he sings is sung so beautifully. I have heard several people sing 'My Way' but engelbert beats all the other's. The emotion he put's into this song is incredible. Every song on this disc is a winner and I even joined in singing along with his old favourites. Engelbert is awesome and as the concert title is totally amazing, this sums englebert. Great show.

There are somethings that happen during the day that make your day special. Watching Engelbert Humperdinck perform on his new DVD "Totally Amazing" is one of those things. His new DVD "Totally Amazing" proves that true quality only continues to improve with age. Every song on his new DVD is special. He just keeps getting better and better. "Totally Amazing" is totally enjoyable.

The title of the DVD is also an apt description of the performer, Engelbert Humperdinck, who will be celebrating his 40th year in show business in January 2007.
If you are a fan who has seen Enge in concert over 200 times or someone who hasn't been fortunate enough to see his show, you'll love this one.
From his first hit, "Release Me," which was a worldwide hit to a brand new song, "Columns of Gray" the songs are fabulous. Dedicated to all the soldiers in wars, "Columns of Gray" is very touching and should be the theme song of Veterans Day, Memorial Day, and so many others honoring our veterans and those that gave their lives for our country.
You may not believe your ears when he sings "Honky Tonk World" if you think he is just a singer of ballads. This man can and does sing all kinds of songs from the sublime to the ridiculous.
His rendition of "My Way" always brings audiences to their feet, cheering for encores.
A big plus is one of the best interviews Engelbert has ever given, and he lets his fans know just how much he appreciates them.
Drop a few hints, and you may receive this DVD for Christmas, your birthday or some other special occasion. If not, do yourself a favor and buy it for yourself. You won't regret it.
The men will love it also, especially my husband.

Still yet another great performance and a wonderful selection of songs. Totally amazing is just that! He never ceases to amaze me with his ability to reach those high notes yet and hold them for so long. Enge is still the greatest and best there is no matter what show you see.

I am seeing him next week in Atlantic City and expect to be wowed in the 2nd row at the Tropicana! Yippppppppiiiiiiiieeeeee!

Enge never sounds bad unless he is sick and that's it!

Love you Enge

I am so in awe of this performer and his clarity and heart in his music. Totally Amazing provided new songs that were so enjoyable (although his classics are great). I loved "a Chance To Be A Hero", "There's No Good In Goodby", "Cry" and "Totally Amazing". My only complaint would be that the orchestra seemed to drown Engelbert and his singers out, and he can still perform to pefection without any back-up! If you liked this DVD, you'll love "Engelbert Live at the London Palladium", where his comedy and his "dance ability" is evident along with his vocals. When you listen to the bonus interviews, it's hard to believe all this man has accomplished and how he continues to tour with fans waiting for him to appear in so many countries. This a Totally, Totally Amazing Performer!

This DVD is great. Enge's voice is still smoking. But the songs selection are not the best. If you have to choose between Totally Amazing and Engelbert Live, I'd recommend the latter, although the image is not as crisp as Totally Amazing as it was recorded in 1995. But the sound quality is there. Guaranteed you'll enjoy Engelbert Live if you are a fan.

This is a must for all you Engelbert Fans.

This DVD contains great songs and a great performance, by Engelbert.

The sound is of great quality.

I saw Engelbert's show on April 3, 2006 in Green Bay, Wi. It was "Amazing." It was so good, that I was saddened that after all of these years this is the first time I got to be at one of his concerts. I have both the CD and the DVD, and they are so much like the show. Beautiful music and a beautiful voice! I just hope Engelbert keeps touring so we can keep enjoying his shows - an appreciation of the finer things in life. I recommend the CD and DVD to anyone, in fact all of his DVD's are a treasure and a must-have.
