Eminem — Stan Lyrics Ft Dido

Eminem's "Stan," featuring Dido and released in 2000 from The Marshall Mathers LP , is a narrative rap song telling the story of an obsessed fan, which popularized the term "stan" for fanatical fandom. The song, which heavily samples Dido's "Thank You," follows a series of letters from the fan, Stan, detailing his obsession, his personal struggles, and his frustration as his letters go unanswered. The song concludes with a final letter from Eminem, in which he realizes that the tragic news story he just heard—about a man driving off a bridge—was actually about Stan.
