Singer Engelbert Humperdinck has just one complaint about his female fans' habit of throwing their undergarments onstage as a show of appreciation: "I usually think it's a waste because none of the underwear fit me," he says with a laugh.
Recently, Humperdinck released the album "Definition of Love," which includes covers of Elvis Presley's "Love Me" and the Beatles' "Penny Lane." As it happens, Humperdinck's "Release Me" kept "Penny Lane" from reaching the top spot on the U.K. charts in 1967.
Humperdinck continued his fame with albums such as 1969's gold-selling "The Last Waltz," 1972's "Another Time, Another Place" and hit singles such as 1976's "After the Lovin'." And he became -- along with friend Tom Jones -- a Las Vegas regular, playing to sold-out houses.
