At times I feel very much like Radiohead's Creep.

"Creep" pretty much sums it up for me, too.

Wait, 1950's? Otherwise, I also agree with "Creep". Also, maybe "Them Bones" by Alice in Chains, but that's more about depression.

"Baby, you're so square," not really post 50's, but that says it all for me.

I should have written post 1950.

I wrote it because I'm trying to avoid great classical music.

Yes it's true, the Bee Gees made some great music before Disco.

The sound of silence, Simon & Garfunkel.

Ten thousand people, maybe more
People talking without speaking

Desperado is the immediate one that comes to mind.
and Still Crazy After All These Years.

Both capture the sense of isolation and are very poignant.
