Re: Songs about addiction and recovery (post your recommendations!)
Jane's Addiction -- I'm not an Addict (the active addict's theme song)
Fiona Apple's album "When the Pawn" is a good example of the inner workings of an addictive personality, and in addition, many of the songs are about addictions (love addictions, dark obssessions and ghosts of the past, anorexia (which IS an addiction), drugs)
Courtney Love -- Sunset Strip (also another theme song of the active addict)
