Everyone that knows rock knows the song, but do you know the story behind the music? I'm sure there will probably be a VH1 special one day. Here's the current scoop;
The 23 former teenagers were taken by their music teacher to sing on Pink Floyd's The Wall album at a nearby recording studio without permission from the headmistress.
The school in North London the students attended was paid 1,000 pounds and a platinum record but the children were never paid.
The former headmistress has now agreed to support her former pupils' claim for unpaid royalties.
