So I'm compiling a mixtape for the newly refurbished Substance.tv website, and I've decided to celebrate the 15th anniversary of the Brian Jonestown Massacre's Thank God For Mental Illness album by putting together a mix of songs about mental illness.
I'm not just looking for any old shit that has "crazy" or "mad" in the title, so don't bother suggesting Gnarls Barkley. Looking for songs about losing the plot. So far I have:
19th Nervous Breakdown -- Rolling Stones(obviouisly)
The Rubber Room -- Porter Wagoner
Frontier Psychiatrist -- Avalanches
Depression -- Black Flag
Gimme Gimme Shock Treatment -- Ramones
Psychotic Reaction -- Count Five
Madhouse -- Anthrax
Just Dropped In -- Kenny Rogers
Any others?
+ Pretty much anything by Daniel Johnston
