Song Review: Stan - Eminem

Hey guys! I meant to post another review over the weekend but that didn't work out too well... I ended up in the hospital emergency room after a catastrophic fall on my snowboard. I hope ya'll had a wonderful weekend injury free.

The song in question today is a touching song by Eminem. It's called Stan because it was named after a passionate fan who had an unfortunate ending to his life. The story goes that Stan met Eminem at a signing and started writing him letters, he never got a reply and started getting more and more frustrated when he was waiting. Eventually driving him mad, he got drunk and well... the song will explain the rest. 

The Stan in the video isn't an exact look-alike, but shows the real Stan's dedication and obsession with Eminem. Tattooing his "Slim Shady" nick-name on his chest and bleaching his had to match his, explains how real of a fan he was to Eminem. Although on Eminem's perspective, all he can focus on is how uncomfortable he is with Stan's passion to him.

Some info about the movie; the music video for this song, is not explicit, so if you're looking for all the words then I'll let you find it (sorry). Also,  this song is very dark in some places so it could touch on some sensitive subjects, so I will warn you now.
