Dido is singing a slightly modified version of her own song "Thank-You", from her album No Angel.
Dido wrote the song as a tribute to her boyfriend Bob Page, and when they split in 2002 she wrote the song "White Flag" about the split.

Stan.
The song borrows the chorus from "Thank You' by Dido.
Eminem has multiple songs that feature female singers. Most notably, in his song 'Stan', Eminem sampled the vocals from Dido's song 'Thank You' while Dina Rae provides vocals in the songs 'Come On Everybody', 'Drug Ballad', 'Superman' and 'We Made You'.
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.
The song you are reffering to is "Stan" featuring Dido. The song is in the album "The Marshall Mathers LP".
