'Would?' is a 1992 single produced by the band and it was actively popular during the early and mid '90s. Jerry Cantrell (band writer) wrote the song and at the time was thinking about Andrew Wood (Jerry Cantrell is a fan of his). Jerry Cantrell said: "I was thinking a lot about Andrew Wood at the time. We always had a great time when we did hang out. There was never really a serious moment or conversation, it was all fun. I always hate people who judge the decisions others make. So it was also directed towards people who pass judgments."
