O arranjo vocal icônico foi criado usando loops de fita magnética de cerca de 4 metros, onde as vozes dos membros da banda eram gravadas repetidamente para formar uma "parede de som" que funcionava como um instrumento musical através das mesas de mixagem.
Kevin Godley sugeriu a ideia radical de usar apenas vozes após ouvir funcionários do estúdio Strawberry Studios cantarem involuntariamente a melodia da música, que anteriormente havia sido descartada e até apagada em suas versões originais de bossa nova.
A voz sussurrada que diz "Be quiet, big boys don't cry" pertence à secretária do grupo, Kathy Redfern, cujos sons foram captados acidentalmente pelos microfonos do piano de cauda e considerados perfeitos para a faixa após ela entrar na sala de controle para avisar sobre uma ligação telefônica.
O sucesso imediato da faixa permitiu que os 10cc assinassem um contrato lucrativo de cinco anos com a Mercury Records, apesar de a Phonogram ter inicialmente recusado lançar a música como single devido à sua extensão superior a seis minutos.
A faixa venceu três Ivor Novello Awards em 1976, recebendo prêmios para a Melhor Canção Pop, Hit Internacional do Ano e Obra Britânica Mais Executada, além de ter sido tocada milhões de vezes nas rádios dos EUA desde o lançamento.
A faixa aparece em produções culturais como os filmes "Suicidas Virgens" e "Guardiões da Galáxia", além de integrar a trilha do videogame "Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories".
