Indie/Twee Playlist for a when you've been DTMFA'd?

Guys at least look up what Twee means before posting. Kris Kristofferson? No Doubt? That's just not right.

Yes! Tryhttp://youtu.be/CHbO2TpMfSc by Tullycraft, for a start. Also, everything ever written by The Wedding Present - there was a point in my life where I used to listen to the entirety of Seamonsters at least twice a day, for at least a year running.

Oh lord you're about to get a massive Spotify dump of the Twee shambles from me. Let's just say it involves Girls, Darren Hayman, Hidden Caneras and the History of Apple Pie.

Sadly, I can't get your link to load in Chrome. You might want to look in to the most recent Jenny Lewis album, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Voyager_%28Jenny_Lewis_album%29. If you want a more classic Twee, I always advise the Lucksmiths. Breaking songs: Synchronized Sinking, The Year of Driving Langorously Broken up songs: Now I'm Even Further Away, Paper Planes, Broken Bones Cheerup song: A Hiccup In Your Happiness. Or maybe Synchronised Sinking fits here? Hm. And it's folk, not twee, but I always want to play these for broken up friends: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RRw589UDG68 by Dar Williams and https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bUPq-zICOOc by Hey Marseilles, but that's because they are the opposite of mopey to me. (both videos are dumb, sorry, I have not the Spotify)

I added four songs to your playlist by Trembling Blue Stars, Shebrews, Pop Singles, and Ron Sexsmith. I hope they are what you're looking for.

Ooh, ooh, I hope I'm not too late. I've been noodling on a post-breakup playlist since it happened in February (working title "Playlist of Infinite Sadness"). So I'll probably be stealing from this. I've been focusing on twee songs that I might describe as joyous sadness, though I lack the musical knowledge or education to really make that make sense. I also have some very specific tastes. One of my favorite bands, Los Campesinos, has a lot of songs that are sort of wryly ironic in their sadness, a sense of "jesus what a pathetic sad sack I am" with an upbeat tempo. Sample lyricshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UlcdGWo9IeQ andhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_4SliyBh4zs They describe themselves as "tweecore". The name of their fourth album is "Hello Sadness", but most of their albums have stuff like that. Two other songs that can be crushing and uplifting at the same time, depending on how I feel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r5Or6-HOveg https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GDdtGXwSevo Mountain Goats has a lot of good breakup stuff at varying places on the happiness/sadness spectrum, though I'm not sure if it really qualifies as twee. This year, I also discovered the existence of the folk-punk genre, which is a name that doesn't make sense to me (I might describe it a bit more like quick, folky songs talking about sadness and overcoming depression with D&D). I particularly like Andrew Jackson Jihad for this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c0cxrA3dTv4 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MlthVn0jeoI https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3xlwhku6Ss8

Added some Serafina Steer and Echodrone.

Had to stop myself adding songs, hope I haven't overdone it...on the twee side, a couple from the Go-Betweens and one from Allo Darlin'. Indie/twee - the Smiths and the Chills (I used to go to an http://www.howdoesitfeel.co.uk/club.html in London and all those bands were played a lot). Daniel Johnston - listed as 'related artist' to The Shebrews, and Spiritualized, who I think would go well with Galaxie 500 and YLT. Feel better soon.
