>Sarah McLachlan's "Possession" was inspired by two of her fans who believed that they were in a relationship with her.

Interesting, but isn't this more of a /mu/ thing? Celebs get stalkers all the time.

joan jett wrote a song about a girl who gets stalked on her way home, and has to fight off a rapist, I cant think of the name but it was based on Mia Zappata, a Seattle grunge musician who was raped and murdered

Hotel California anyone?

According to the band, it's about the drugs and decadence of 70s California. Anything occult or Satanic is in the mind of the reader. But, that's if you take the band's word as gospel truth.

that actually sounds about right. it's definitely creepy but I've never gotten a satanic vibe off it.

Apparently it was long rumored that the song is about the Church of Satan, but that's definitely a stretch.
