The song was written and originally recorded by a man. The hit version was recorded by a group.
Clue #1:
Both the original and hit versions have intros that start with just an electric keyboard of some kind, not an acoustic piano.
to recap:
the original artist (solo performer, duo, trio, band, etc) who is a man plays the same minor chord twenty times before changing chords and sings the title on the 17th occurrence of that chord, and at a rate of slightly faster than one every half a second do those repeated chords get played.
