Cloud Eyes (Qkumba Zoo)

[germcb]

This is one of my favorite albums I've ever owned... until the disc mysteriously disapeared a while back. Have to go get a new one ASAP.

[Freenev]

I used to sit in my barracks room and listen to the CD for hours. This is by far the best track....imo.

[Nyghtshade409]

If I recall correctly, the band said it was actually winter when they filmed, and because of the costumes they were freezing their asses off but they wanted to get the right effects for the video so they did it anyway.

[HoojPoons]

What a great group! 

[austinquisse]

Howzit Owl. (Is that you Kevin?)

Do you remember playing 'Horse with no name' at the concert on the mound at Varsity? I prefer your own music. How you doing - it's been a very long time?

Later chum,

Austin

[tuathaoftheisles]

Thanks for the link to you new EP, Owl. So cool! Brilliant.

[Arielshomemovies]

Owl would you like to camp with us at Burningman next year???

[sabaodf]

i used to dance a lot with this song

[EncasZeo]

Wow, I just discovered Qkumba Zoo's first album! I'm giving it a listen right now, and from what I can tell, "Cloud Eyes" seems to be a perfect pop ballad. This music is just begging to sneak its way into my CD collection!

[tristandjones]

where are these guys ????? love them, i what to rep them in Australia

[roctex]

Please tell me this singer did not pass away. Somebody

[BruceBarker101]

Ocean road anybody???  Now there would be a rare video to get hold of

[Gunglrav]

I love her shooooeeesss!

[dendost]

How come iTunes doesn't have any listings for Qkumba Zoo?

[owlmerlyn]

Currently Arista, who owns the recordings of the first album, havent put it on iTunes. For our later stuff, its almost impossible for us to use iTunes due to South Africans being unnable to plug into overseas financial systems... its a long story. Hence us looking at alternatives

[jaygazer]

Hey Owl! I remember we used to talk in email so many years ago. You mentioned your basement flooding. lol Hey, I REALLY miss you guys. Your music was so magical, and it was a big influence on a lot of my own writing. I really wish there would be another Qkumba tour here in the States. How can I get ahold of your music now these days? Butterfly people never got released, correct?

[Ckloudeyes]

And this is where I've gotten my nickname since 1996

[jlnnovena]

Nice!

Brought this album back in the 90s.

[aazzuull912]

true love, sincerity, fidelity, and dreaming tea

[mindful1983]

[aznsoy24]

i love your album please more videos of wake up and dream, rain was awesome. q zoo was my fav band back in the days. owl can you explain your image and what are you portraying? thanks lots of luv 2 d zoo crew!

[charmedonesasi]

ah use to live in SA beautiful country .. wish they could stop ruining it though! i especially miss having a "braai" lol

[charmedonesasi]

i have loved this group ever since my brother played it and i said "whos that"? just wish i could find more of there tunes on youtube??

[earnhardt808]

This is one of the best, most unique music groups ever. Anytime I am playing the CD, people are constantly asking me "Who is that? they are awesome!" Qkumba Zoo is wonderful and really should do at least one more CD.

[Onjade]

I was able to get a few words from Owl, he said it's just him for right now, but Levannah still makes a few songs every now and then. He also said when he has the time to, (when daily commitments are taking up his time) he'll have some NEW music posted.

[paxtonyoung]

That's cool you got a message from him too. He didn't mention to me that it was just him now.Hope he and Levannah can hook up again. I'll still be interested to hear what Owl comes up with. I'd really like to hear him sing.If that's him singing the line "Come back today" on FLESH AND BLOOD and the dark vocals on INTO THE NIGHT then this guy has a cool voice and I'd like to hear more.

Also curious as to what they both look like today. Wonder if Owl still has his long braided beard. Totally cool!

[mdippenaar]

This just makes me miss South Africa so much...

[anrie9]

ja ja ek ook......The last time I heard this song I was a teen sitting in my room dreaming big dreams. I miss my home : <

[mdippenaar]

Ja jong, ek mis SA vreeslik baie. Kan nie wag om terug te gaan nie.

[ulrich11889]

This is one of the best albums I have ever owned (Wake Up and Dream). Excellent.. you don't find talent like this very often these days. I still have it on CD. Was there ever an LP/vinyl version? Too bad the CD version is out of print.

[paxtonyoung]

I just bought my CD on Ebay. Plus they have remix cd singles or vinyl there to at times. Check it out.

[wynterwren]

~feels her soul sing every time she hears this~

[floridapmi]

my ex and I went on a cruise and the only tape we had was this albulm (thank God), we listened to it over and over, nine months later my son was born.

[mysticpluck8]

We so need music like what you guys have done. 'Hope you'll be back. Love the creativity and the positiveness of it all...

[tebsmos]

lyrics anyone?

[tebsmos]

What a great song. And music video.

Anyone know how I could get hold of a copy / mp3?

[ciffycoffee]

The singing is so soft and mellow here. I can't think of more pure vocals anywhere.

I really wish they had made more songs.

[rts13619]

owlmerlyn......a million thanks for keeping the spirit alive, this was my first CD I ever owned and will continue to treasure it for always, seeing these videos posted by you make it even more of a treasure.

[raberidoom]

I have loved Qkumba Zoo for a long time, this is one of my favorite songs ever, fills me with nostalgia. Thank you so much.

[graylappin]

aah tears down my face as i hear this, i grew up as a lonely kid in Yeovile, JHB loving this stuff, i often used to see one of the band members buying veg along Rockey Street on my way home from school. I've been in London for 10 years now so having this on youtube means the world to me!

[Aerodita]

Love your music and style guys. Thinking of making a big come back any time soon?

[slugfulham]

COol! ThaNKs for sHarinG tHis soUth AfRICan cLASSic! :)))) Brings back so many memories :)))

[Kodemaster]

Thank you for posting this! You looked like you were having a lot of fun in the video...so spontaneous and carefree...I love it! :)

[recharukua]
