"Question" comes from Satellite Rides, the fifth studio album by country-rock outfit Old 97's, released in 2001. Rhett Miller sings lead with Murry Hammond joining in, Wally Gagel produced it with the band as co-producers, and the writing credit is shared among Miller, Hammond, Ken Bethea, Philip Peeples and Simon Ford.
It sits on a record where Miller mostly wrote about characters other than himself, though personal touches slip through. The song has had a long life beyond that album: the band often plays it live with a verse sung in French, and Miller re-recorded it, backed by a whole band, on The Believer, his solo album from 2006.
