((Hugs!))

I also like those songs by Englebert & Tom Jones, because I think they give really good, soulful versions of some great, old, sad, bluesy, country songs.   (Not because I'm just for hearing "nice old lady music".   I'm not a woman, like yourself, but I think Engelbert and Tom Jones both sing great, soulful versions of some of these sad, bluesy, country songs.)      :-)

(Besides, Engelbert Humperdinck has a great name, doesn't he?)      :-)

Here are some older versions of those same songs, done earlier, by various country singers, who also do good, bluesy, country versions I like too.   (See how you like these versions yourself.)

     "Am I That Easy To Forget" - Carl Belew

     "Green, Green Grass Of Home" - Johnny Darrell

     "Please Release Me" - Jerry Lee Lewis

     "There Goes My Everything" - Jack Greene

(They're not British like Humperdinck & Jones, but they do good versions of these country songs, don't they?)
