twee orgins, this is like the millionth time i have
posted on this.  It might be best to go to twee.net. 
They have a bit with the history of twee, since the
people who started the site, were heavily involved
with the early days of twee and indiepop.  These
people were the same that had alot to do with the
sarah(uk) and bus stop(usa) labels.  It might also be
helpful to find somebody who was on one of those
labels since they generally know alot about the
history of twee and indie pop.  Generally from the
people i know on bus stop simon and garfunkel is
probably the earliest influence.

So many days pass lost in the skyline.  Some things still take my heart away and leave me weaping.
