So Classy, So Elegant, So Engelbert, What a Super Super talent. What a Voice, But most of all What a Marvelous and Giving MAN this is. Got to LOVE HIM!!!!!!! Thank You for posting this Gem, Marilyn
My name is Allan Hotlen. I wrote the lyrics to "Let Me Into Your Life." (The brilliant Peter DeAngelis wrote the music.) I was thrilled when Engelbert recorded it (in 1968!?!) and thrilled when he sang it twice on worldwide television. But seeing THIS video . . . posted on TH-cam . . . was even more gratifying. Engelbert still hasn't gotten the words quite right (in the chorus.) But I'm so grateful that he's still singing "my" song so beautifully. Thank you, Engelbert.
So often, Allan, people do not seem to realize someone took time & effort to write the music & write the lyrics... they only seem enthralled by the arrangement & captivated by it all thru the singer, his voice, his looks & manner. Truly you guys do not get enough acknowledgement & recognition from the recording artists nor the audiance. Arnold "@Engelbert Humperdinck" Dorsey, the more years progress, the more humble he is & rarely fails to acknowledge the contributing artists for their works. I thank you too; I loved the lyrics! It is indeed a huge compliment just knowing as you've noted, that one's work/art is chosen to be sung by a professional, even when the words are deliberately or mistakenly changed slightly, even some added for improvement, like a 'bridge' that is needed.
I have been singing this since 1968, what a terrific song and congrats for getting Enge to record it! This truly is a very rare live performance recording of this.
It was nice to finally found the writer of the romantic lyric of this song. I am from Indonesia and I have been loving this song since I was a child. I often wonder how could the lyric, the music and the voice were blended such beautifully. When I was a teenager, I often imagined that someone would say the same words to me. I saw Engelbert singing this song on his Legacy Tour in Singapore two years ago when I was there just for him. What a surprise! This is my best favorite song.
Another "Thank you," Inge. I won't bore you with the story of what inspired me to write the lyrics to "Let Me Into Your Life," except to say that it was an expression n (albeit a more intense and dramatic one) of something going on in my life. Peter DeAngelis, who was a brilliant composer and arranger came up with the melody almost instantly after I told him I thought there was a song in the title "Let Me Into Your Life." The song took us very little time to write -some songs take days and weeks and even longer to write), so - again - it's almost unimaginable to me that Pete's and my song brings pleasure to people all over the world . . . people like you, whom I've never met . . . so many years after we wrote it. To your health, Inge! Sorry I hadn't acknowledged your letting me know about that long-ago (5-years) Engelbert concert you were going to. Somehow, i hadn't seen your post till today
@@ALLANHOTLENAllan, I will let a friend of mine who has a wonderful voice to sing the cover of this song in his youtube channel and will let you know. I'm sure he will not disappoint you with his golden voice 😊
To Ann Raczok . . . Your comment warned my heart. What a joy to know that more than 50 years after I wrote the lyrics to “Let Me Into Your Life” and Engelbert recorded it, you enjoy listening to it. I wish I could find a way to let you know just how magical and almost mystical it is to help create something and learn that people you’ve never met appreciate it. I hope you and your loved ones are healthy and that the new year keeps your heart and soul filled with music.
Marilyn . . . You can't possibly know how much I appreciate your kind words. It makes me happy (and proud) to know that "Let Me Into Your Life" touches your heart. So . . . thank you for taking time to let me know! (By the way, here are the actual lyrics to the first 2 lines of the chorus . . . Just let me into your life. Let me tear down the wall that is keeping ME outside the heart of you)
@allietheh Thank You for writing such a beautiful song. This is my favorite one of all the songs he sings, and there are many. But these lyrics, oh my touched my heart! I had requested that he sing this on his legacy of love tour. When I went to concert and I heard he included this gem, my heart just soared. Wonderful lyrics, just wonderful, Marilyn
to did first thinHello, "Inggeful!" The first thing I did today was read my email. And yours was the first message. So . . . you started my day with a smile. I'm so glad you like "my" song. You can't imagine how wonderful it is to know that this song means a lot to you. At the time I wrote the words, I was inspired by something going on in my life. Maybe that's why the song seems so powerful. But whatever the reason, I'm thrilled that you like it! Allan
@allietheh You are very welcome, indeed! I am going to concert to see him on the 29 ! I will remember those words when he sings this gem! Cant wait! Thanks for telling me.
@ingge6314. I’m so flattered by t 0:02 he fact that you like the song enough to ask a friend to record it. Honestly, I can’t wait to hear your friends version of Let Me Into Your Life. Thank you so much for being in touch. I wish you good health.

Great dong!!But best rendition for me was "The Flood " from Laudium ,Pretoria! !Was a massive hit snd even made the charts in South Africa!!
I never get bored with this song. How are you Allan Hotlen? I'm going to watch Engelbert performance again in Singapore next week. Hope he will sing this song once again.
Allan, I am moved to know that the words were inspired by something going on in your life. I really hope that it had become a happy ending love song to you. Yes Engelbert should put the word ME instead of YOU in the second line of the chorus. It was like that since the first time he recorded this song and I was a bit confused with the meaning. Glad to have your clarification.
Спасибо за это видение. Приятно, что Энгельберт побывал в
России. Спасибо за его выступление!!!
