Engelbert Humperdinck, the singer, whose real name is Arnold George Dorsey, was originally not believed to have written or composed any songs for Tom Jones, whose own real name is Thomas Jones Woodward. They were often compared to each other, however; a large part of this might have had to do with the facts that both were proteges of British music producer and impressario Gordon Mills and that both recorded on the same record label, the Parrot Records label, in the earliest phases of their respective careers.

THE ABOVE ANSWER IS, IN FACT, FALSE.

Engelbert Humperdinck wrote the song "This and That" which Tom Jones recorded in his early career.

The last person who answered this question did so without actually knowing the facts, yet answered the question anyway.

What confuses many people about this question was that Mr. Humperdinck, when he wrote and composed "This And That" for Mr. Jones, used the pen name of Gerry Dorsey when he did.
