I really like the some "A Most Peculiar Man" by Simon and Garfunkel....

Here's some songs I know that are about/reference it:

"Eleanor Rigby" by the Beatles is about all the lonely people....
"Unhappy Girl" by the Doors

I've found another one, "Behind the Waterfall" by The Apples in Stereo. Good luck finding it though, I'm pretty sure it's out of print and impossible to find online. PM me if you're interested.

how about some of these:

boulevard of broken dreams - green day
smash - the offspring
the red - chevelle

and i love the song "how soon is now" by the smiths.

i have pretty bad s.a.d. and some songs kind of make me feel at peace with it. here's some of them:
remedy - seether
kashmir - led zeppelin
you know you're right - nirvana

i do!! :]

"Everything is Alright" by Motion City Soundtrack. They're an indie punk band. here's part of the lyrics that sound a lot like SA...

Cause I hate the ocean, theme parks and airplanes,
Talking with strangers, waiting in line..
I'm through with these pills that make me sit still.
"Are you feeling fine?"
Yes, I feel just fine.

The "talking with strangers, waiting in line," describes me well, lol.
Actually the whole song does, haha. ... :o wait.. that's not funny.
D:it's sad. =[

another song by them is "Modern Chemistry." It doesn't describe SA though, but depression, which I'm also a victim of...

"I barely have the motivation
They say I suffer from a lack of seratonin
Synapses,they happen too infrequently for me
To be functioning properly

I took the pills
I took the advice
The panic stopped
But still, I'm not right
Racing thoughts and wasted time"

Those are the only songs I know of, sorry. :0

Basket Case by Greenday is a song about anxiety too, not SA in particular, still a good song though

Eric Clapton & Leon Russell wrote:
Bet you didn't think I knew how to rock 'n' roll.
Oh, I got the boogie-woogie right down in my very soul.
There ain't no need for me to be a wallflower,
'Cause now I'm living on blues power.

I knew all the time but now I'm gonna let you know:
I'm gonna keep on rocking, no matter if it's fast or slow.
Ain't gonna stop until the twenty-fifth hour,
'Cause now I'm living on blues power.

First Verse

Talking to you, now.
The boogie's gonna pull me through.
Keep on, keep on, keep on keeping on.
Keep on keeping on, keep on keeping on.

If you want me
You can find me
Left of center
Off of the strip

In the outskirts
In the fringes
In the corner
Out of the grip

When they ask me
"What are you looking at?"
I always answer
"Nothing much" (not much)
I think they know that
I'm looking at them
I think they think
I must be out of touch

But I'm only
In the outskirts
And in the fringes
On the edge
And off the avenue
And if you want me
You can find me
Left of center
Wondering about you

I think that somehow
Somewhere inside of us
We must be similar
If not the same
So I continue
To be wanting you
Left of center
Against the grain

If you want me
You can find me
Left of center
Off of the strip
In the outskirts
In the fringes
In the corner
Out of the grip

When they ask me
"What are you looking at?"
I always answer
"Nothing much" (not much)
I think they know that
I'm looking at them
I think they think
I must be out of touch

But I'm only
In the outskirts
And in the fringes
On the edge
And off the avenue
And if you want me
You can find me
Left of center
Wondering about you
Wondering about you

Fade to Black by Metallica
The song doesn't speak about SA but you could interpret it about it's effects and how it can drive you to really dark places(losing the will to live...)
