It’s insane how he can make Stan and Slim sound like two different people, even with the same voice and same person, just the demeanor alone. Beautiful and tragic piece of work.

This is not just a song, it’s a story. And you can really feel it.

[MoaiFromRapaNui]

Why Stan is one of the greatest songs of all time:
1: It’s over 6 minutes and 30 seconds long
2: Tells a heartbreaking and inspiring story
3: Has multiple characters
4: Instrumentals are insane
5: The lyrics are golden

[CannedWatermelon-fdmy]

I was recommended this song from my grandfather, and all I gotta say...

He got good taste.

[nicolestebbins]

Honestly Eminem is one of few musicians that can tell a story through a song like a book.

[NoAds-xiyn]

Rather than just sending a message, it tells a story too. Not many artists accomplish that as well as Eminem did in this. Eminem is truly a musical legend.

[giebel]

For some reason the “This is Stan” hits different

[happydaysgoon]

The emotion he put into this third verse is unparalleled. It's like watching a movie.

[eddiii]

No matter how many times I listen to this song I actually get chills hearing “and his name was… it was you”

[febryle]

if you're not from tiktok, then you are definitely a LEGEND

[jakeleearmy]

Yo the anger in his voice when he says the “I hope you can’t sleep without me” part scares the shit out of me for some reason

[LuneMurdock]

when i was comin up as a kid i love the song but didnt understand till i got older but the voice of Dido on the hook is jus priceless now that im grown man time sure has passed

[naimanpunk]

when i was young around 2008 i was listening to this song because i was dumped by my gf. i was 15 at the time and had an important english exam and i had to wrote a letter to my friend. This song help me score 99. i didnt copy the lyrics. i copy the emotion.

Origin
Stan (fan) The word “stan” originates from an Eminem song released in 2000 titled “Stan.” The word is a combination of the words “stalker” and “fan.” The song is set as a series of letters between Eminem and fan named Stan who feels obligated to receive letters from Eminem just because he’s a fan of his work

[hafsachafiai]

this song literally deserves an Oscar.
Edit: people wondering why i didn’t write Grammy, is bcs this song feels like an actual movie more than just a song, the soundtrack, the voice acting, the rain. And im pretty sure that songs can win oscars.

[AWC_italian]

The bass in this and mockingbird just hits.

[packers.prodzz]

i get goosebumps and cold chills every time i listen to this song. every time. especially whenever he drives off the bridge and when slim writes him back.

[killapositionz]

The Dido chorus fits so well with the theme of the song... "the morning rain clouds up my window and I can't see at all, and even if I could it would all be gray, put your picture on my wall, it reminds me that it's not so bad" pure poetry.

[TheTruthfulOnes]

Stan will eternally be one of the best songs of all time. It never gets old.

This isn’t sponsored but “The Frontroom” channel has a son show this song to his father for the first time. And it is truly amazing to see someone’s first reaction to such a beautiful song
