The phrase “i would” appears in multiple contexts, but one well-known attribution is to the Phil Collins song “Who Said I Would.” If you’re asking about who originally said or wrote the line in a literary or historical sense, please clarify the exact context (e.g., a lyric, a quote from a book or speech, or a particular scene in media). Here are a few possible angles:

• Song context: “Who Said I Would” is a track by Phil Collins from his 1985 album No Jacket Required. It was later released as a single in 1991 from the live album Serious Hits... Live!, and has both studio and live versions with accompanying music videos and credits. If you want, I can summarize the song’s themes or provide its lyric snippet with proper rights considerations.

• Quote context: If you meant a famous quotation that ends up phrased similarly to “I would,” please provide the author, work, or occasion. I can help locate the exact line and its provenance.
• Lyrics or quotes: For exact wording, I can help locate the line in the appropriate work and discuss its meaning, keeping copyright considerations in mind.

If you can specify whether you’re asking about the Phil Collins song, a specific quote from literature or history, or another usage, that will allow a precise, targeted answer.
