Eminem - Curtain Call: The Hits

In “When I’m Gone ” Eminem Shares A Personal Story About His Relationship With His Daughter Hailie And How His Absence Is Influencing Her The Family And Himself. Despite The Nature Of The Song This Wasn’t Actually Em’s Last Single On His Curtain Call The Hits Compilation Album Before His 2005-2009 Hiatus “Shake That” Was. "'The Guilt Of Always Having To Leave. At The Time It Was Mainly Hailie That It Was Effecting. Literally The Things That I Say In The Song About Her Giving Me The Coin And Putting Boxes In Front Of The Door To Try To Block It To Try To Stop Me From Leaving Those Things Really Happened. I’m At A Point In My Life Right Now Where I Don’t Know Where My Career’s Going This Is The Reason We Called It Curtain Call Because This Could Be The Final Thing. When Hailie Would Put Boxes In Front Of The Door It Would Kill Me. Just Writing The Song When I Hear The Second Verse Of That Song Everything In It Is So True… There’s Two Songs That I’ve Done Where I Was In The Booth Recording The Songs Because I’ve Been Teary Eyed. “Mockingbird” And This New Songs Are Probably The Most Emotional That I’ve Written . I’ve Had Dreams Similar To What I Describe In The Song But This Song Is Basically About The Guilt That I’ve Had To Deal With From Leaving Because I Hated Leaving My Family. I Realise That I Had To Leave My Home For The Stage Because My Second Passion Is To Be Out There To Just Rap In Front Of That Many People But You Gotta Decide What’s More Important And Right Now There’s Nothing More Important Than My Family.'" - Mojo In The Morning "'It Was More About Making A Song That Was True To Form Of Where I’m At Right Now In My Career… I Don’t Know Where I’m At In My Career. It Takes You Through The Journey Of The Guilt Trip That Almost Consumed Me On A Daily Basis Of Leaving My Family For The Stage And Basically Just The Bad Feelings And Guilt You Get From Doing That Being On The Road And Gone So Much. This Song Would Mark The Death Of Slim Shady. It’s Basically Saying “I’m Putting This Persona To Bed And This Is Why I’m Doing It”. It Was A Difficult Song To Write In The Sense Of I Didn’t Know What I Wanted To Write About. I Knew With Everything That I’ve Gone Through This Year And Coming Out Of Rehab I Knew That I Had To Make A Song That Said “If I’m Gonna Put The Mic Done For A Little While Let Me Explain Why”. Because The Stress The Pressure The Guilt And Everything In-Between Has Led Me Up To This Point Where I Feel Like This Year I Just Kinda Cracked.'" - MTV Italy It Was Written In 2003 And Recorded In March 2004. “When I’m Gone” Was Certified 4x Platinum By The RIAA On February 28 2018.
