What does that song Stan mean by Eminem?

Answer 1

I believe that "Stan" by Eminem feat Dido is based on a true story. Stan was Eminem's biggest fan who valued Eminem over his pregnant girlfriend who he abused. Stan made many attempts in trying to contact Eminem through letters, but Eminem was so busy it took him a while to respond. Stan began to believe that Eminem didn't care about his fans and purposefully did not respond. He began to grow extremely angry (yes, he was insane) and decided to commit suicide by driving off of a bridge with his girlfriend tied up in the trunk. Eminem finally responded but it was too late. Eminem realized that the Stanley he saw in the newspaper was him.

Answer 2

He raps the verses, but does not sing in the song. The chorus is borrowed from the song "Thank You" by Dido.
