 First act up, they were not a hometown hero because, well, this song came out in 1974, and hometown heroes was not even a glimmer in anyone's eye yet. But, well, it's glimmering these days. The artist, I guess you'd call them a group, called The Three Degrees, and it was three ladies out of Philadelphia. They had hits in the early 70s, and like I said, this song was from 1974. Yeah.
