The Tweest Record Covers Ever (picture thread)

Bit too many beheaded people around her to call it twee, that is for sure. Btw. the "Nursery Cryme" cover is influenced by the lyrics of "The Musical Box", like the "Foxtrot" cover is influenced by the "Supper's Ready" lyrics.

Okay Nursey Cryme is just plain creepy, but there seems to be some confusion here between 'twee' and 'shite'.

err, yeah. doesn't twee imply some sort of awareness that you are being a naif? Mr. Loggins is totally sincere when he returns to Pooh Corner.

let's all define twee again

If you're feeling sinister and you find a kitten's face ground into the treads of your running shoes, you're twee.
