 In the closing lyrics, Collins sings lines from "Think", which shows that this song was one of the few adaptations of the 5 Royales song that Brown loved to do.Along with "Funky Drummer" and "Funky President", "Think (About It)" is one of the most frequently sampled James Brown productions, having been used on tracks by hundreds of hip hop and dance music artists.The song appeared on the 16th volume of the "Ultimate Breaks and Beats" compilation series in 1986, shortly before the release of the E-mu SP-1200 sampler in 1987.
