Sheila Ferguson recalled that "the song was played to me by Kenny Gamble at the piano in 1973 and I threw a tantrum. I screamed and yelled and said I would never sing it. I thought it was ridiculously insulting to be given such a unproblematic song and that information technology took no talent to sing information technology. We did practise it and several million copies later, I realized that he knew more than than me."[2] She would afterward have a #60 hit with a solo remake of the track in 1994.[3] The song is unique in that every sentence is a question, heightening the overall issue and emotion. The Three Degrees performed the song at Prince Charles' 30th birthday political party at Buckingham Palace in 1978.
