Used to hear this song on the easy listening station I listened to as a child. Back then, I thought the song was called "Wanda, Wanda, Wanda" and he was singing to a woman named Wanda. My late great-aunt's name is Wanda so I thought that was really cool. :)
@busigma, I would have to disagree with you on Engelbert's lack of vocal range . The man can make his voice soar with power and clarity. Listen to his version of Spanish eyes, his voice soars incredibly- my point is that if you lack range there is no way you can go that high as masterfully as he does. Matter of fact ,his versions of songs like Spanish eyes and You'll never walk alone display his range and mastery of thereof. He's always smooth even when cruising in the high registers.
@mikorara , My comment was based purely from a technical standpoint. There are many commerical singers whose vocal range is limited, but they still sound pleasing. Listen to his normal pitch level and pay careful attention to how elevated it becomes over the course of a song. You will notice that the range does not variate very much. All of his songs are presented in a very similar if not the same vocal range. He has mastered his vocal range which is vitally important for success in music.
There is nothing like Engelbert one of this best and all the tunes that have become his signature ones including this one cannot be reproduced. I love Mr H.
Though lacking in vocal range and technical correctness, Humperdink has mastered the art of the ballad by applying his velvety resonating voice to musical arrangements and lyrics that suited his talents to near perfection. Top that with his rustic good looks, a healthy dose of sex appeal, and a rollicking big band as a backdrop and you've got a combination that couldn't miss. When it comes to delivering a melodic ballad with pure feeling and passion, there are few that ever did it better.
We need more songs like this in the current generation so much hate and not love that's why i stop listening to current music . Oldies will forever be golden just listen to the songs so full with life and respecting life . Compared to current hate and self destructive lyrics . I need a time machine to go back and meet these kind of people ........
As the year ended in New York, our life together began and I put four bucks in the guitar case and the man in the wheechair erupted with this magical song, and as we headed off to the stairway's light, he called out to you without missing a beat.. "Don't forget to kiss your husband, he just bought you a love song." You smiled and your eyes danced and his beautiful booming voice echoed Quando Quando Quando through our tunnel of love. Matthew
This song brings back memories of moving into my first ever home - picked up at Woolworths, along with many essentials of setting up first home! - a very relaxing tune - hearing it helped me unwind from the stresses of house buying at the time!!

Quando is both an Italian and Spanish 2word. However, in this case this song traces to Italian. This is an English rendition of an old Italian song. In French, it's Quand, and you don't pronoune the d in French like you would in Spanish and Italian.
"Quando" (When) is the same in Italian, Spanish and Portuguese. And in the duet sung with Nelly Furtado i'm pretty sure "Quando" is meant to be in Portuguese.
I wonder who is the asshole that has written the Wikipedia page of this song.
They declare its portuguese and they say in the end.
"NOTE: QUANDO isn´t a italian word, its a portuguese word (you can search it in the dictionary)."
I don't need to search it, I'm Italian, the word "quando" means "when", Tony Renis who wrote the music is a famous Italian song writer, Alberto Testa who wrote the first version is a famous Italian singer and presented this song at San Remo in 1962.
i had no doubt it is ALSO a portuguese word, the problem was that this guy on wikipedia said it was NOT an Italian word, and only on this conviction, he modified the wikipedia text declaring the that the song was of Portuguese origins.
Hey Oldie, I used to have his album. This was one of my favorites on it. What a beautiful house. Is it in France? I could have gone to France once...oh well. Thanks again!~ Catalina

On the sheet music on all versions we have clearly written Tony Renis as the music writer.
On the Pat Boone and the Engelbert Humperdinck versions it indicates A.Testa as the Italian words. So they both have worked on Mr Testa's words.
This is the copy write registration number EFO000086566 / 1962-02-14
And this is the title deposited:
Quando, quando, quando; samba. w Alberto Testa, w & m Tony Remis, pseud. of Elio Cesari.
As you can see, all Italian authors, music and words.
Correct Wiki!!
