...

I'm pretty sure Trump himself isn't yet aware that the South Koreans made his theme song for him.

This is a freakin' banger.

I'd play this on my stock car radio with all the manual windows I could reach without throwing out my back rolled down.

Do they still make cassette tapes?

Not joking about it being a banger, by the way.

I'm a lyric guy. If I were on Jeopardy and Music Lyrics were the category I'd still lose against pretty much anybody they could possibly pit me against, but at least I wouldn't embarass myself.

Say what you want to about KPOP or whatever this evolution of it is, but I'd make one hell of a subjective argument that it's got one of the best strung together list of pre-chorus words I've ever read in a pop song.

This prechorus could have easily been its own chorus in any other song.

Your imagination's got me going viral.

Life's a simulation got me in a spiral.

24/7? More like 25/8...

... Honestly, are you OK?

(3rd time only: "Your digital footprint is looking so insane."

It's so good. And it's just one of many great lines.

How do you buy stock in whoever put this thing together?

I'll leave all the philanthropy to the rest of you worried about which company is or isn't screwing us. I just want in on the ground floor of whoever is responsible for putting this out when it seems like most of the people responsible for making music in America stopped knowing how to make anything good years ago.

Now I remember what other song I'd heard recently that had a great pre-chorus...

Thank You, by Dido.

But no... that wasn't a bangin pre-chorus that made it so good. It was the first verse of the song.

If it wasn't for that first verse being sampled for the chorus of a Slim Shady rap song that made her famous (semi-famous???) right afterward, I might never have heard this song and almost certainly wouldn't remember it today even if I had.

Not that it's a bad song. I can say it's objectively good while still not liking it much myself. There's a lot of good songs that I don't personally care for.

But I love those first four sentences, sung exactly as she sings them as the first verse of her song as the chorus of a song itself. I don't like them being at the beginning, never repeated, and home to what is in my opinion a very inferior chorus.

What a weird way that music can be warped in your head like that when it's presented two entirely different ways at the exact same time on the radio. Whenever I've heard this song come on some random radio over the years, my favorite part of the song is the first few lines and then it's all downhill for me.

I'm sure that's not at all what Mrs. Dido was going for, but it was probably just a quirky and unforeseen side-effect that afflicts millions of undiagnosed, aging, Eminem fans in current year.

How could I forget it was Stan?

Probably because I'd already tapped out on Eminem around the time this came out, and long before Stan became an internet meme.

Funny how the world works...

It started as a thread about a KPOP song that appears as if it was tailor made to fit Donald Trump, and only 3 self-replies in and I'm posting Eminem's Stan...

... but not at all for the stupidly obvious reason.

And if you know why that's funny, you should probably join me in making a pledge to ourselves that we will spend less time on the internet going forward.

P.S. Man Eminem sucks. I remember when I finally broke away from an old friend group that listened to mostly nothing but rap, at least in public anyway...

I know if I really thought about it there is at least one or maybe even two songs by Eminem that I could still listen to today, but Stan ain't it. I can't even listen to this shit in 2026.

That makes the fact that I'll always remember Dido's Thank You even more unique. It's objectively an above average, yet likely otherwise completely forgettable and aging adult contemporary song with a really great first verse.

And the only reason I know it is because of a shitty Eminem song.
