歌曲介紹:
歌詞中寫到一個叫Stan的粉絲,他寫了很多信給EMINEM,但沒得到回復。憤怒的他選擇了極端的手段:服下大量安眠藥,痛飲五瓶伏特加,將他的未婚妻綁在后備箱,沖下了生命終點處的大橋,淹沒在一片沉寂的水花中。
EMINEM想以此警示歌迷,分清他歌中的虛實。他的朋友PROOF在采訪中說,“當他的歌迷出事時我們剛從米蘭回來,那個叫Stan的歌迷簡直是太瘋狂了。”(在CCTV10的欄目《人物》埃米納姆中17分30秒)也許這個名字不是真實的,但是故事并不是虛構的。
女聲憂郁的唱腔,EMINEM那帶著濃厚鼻音的RAP。
整首歌是以STAN和EMINEM之間的通信為歌詞,EMINEM唱這首歌的目的是希望他的歌迷們不要像STAN那樣,要好好的活著。
《Stan》中英雙語歌詞:
{Chorus: Dido}
{ My tea's gone cold I'm wondering why ... 茶越來越涼,我始終不知道為什么…
I got out of bed at all. 始終輾轉難眠。
The morning rain clouds up my window.. 清晨的雨遮住了我的窗...
and I can't see at all. 我根本就看不見.
And even if I could it'll all be gray, 我能看見的全都是灰色的,
put your picture on my wall, 除了墻上的你的照片,
It reminds me, that it's not so bad, 它提醒我,這還不算壞,
it's not so bad.. } 還不算太壞……
{Chorus: Dido}
