This song was written by Robert Lamm, who was the band's primary songwriter. "That was a love song that dealt in terms of questions I was asking myself about this particular relationship that was going down," he said. "I wasn't sure whether it was good or bad."
The title refers to the years 1967 and 1968, which is when the relationship Robert Lamm wrote about took place. The title doesn't appear until the last line in the song.
In later years, Chicago emphasized vocals and keyboards (often in ballads), but the horns were the star of the show when they recorded this song. Their trombone player James Pankow explained in a 2000 interview with Goldmine, "I used to write horns very harmonically. 'Questions 67 & 68' is probably a very good example of how I used to approach horns. I had no rests. We played from the first bar of the song, which is not very musical anymore. We got away with that then."
