Hey guys, check out our new song Everything Must Go: czcams.com/video/KvHLyw8_ZZY/video.html
Good song. Everyone go listen to it.
Ok
why dont we funding this instead of shitty rap music these days
Hello Kongos. Your music it really good. I have only 4 days listening all your albums. I hope that you can come to Ecuador one day.
Damn good music guys. Been jamming out to yall at work. This hillbilly gonna get back to it and yall do the same.
2 years after that song.They came up with song called “I Want to Know”.Some legend says they still searcing for the truth
theConnorGamer ohh,I thought this song was older
Legend?
@@MaesterPayne Gen Z youngsters love that phrase... "the legend has it.....", very common phrase online
I bought some shirts at a garage sale. They were destined for a play. Among all the shirts, there was one that caught my attention. There was a man with an apple and looking through a book. On the back of the shirt, said the name of this band. I looked it up on the internet and it's how I got here, great music. Casualities that give pleasure.
i only found them recently by accident i like accidents now
Being a KONGOS fan, I listen to them ALL THE TIME♥️🤘♥️🤘
Who's here 2024
I listen to them everyday.
A rare thing, a band that carves out its own ORIGINAL sound, and writes good tunes along the way.
These hippies make good music
secretagentman23 this made me laugh so loud
hahaha
definetly
Now this, is gold
Best comment ever xD hahahaha 😆
Tell me about it, come to Moncton boysss
This song kicks ass.
The bassist skipping in circles makes this as fun to watch as the song is to listen to. Love these guys even almost 10 years later.
Six million views since 2012 damn people undervalue this band
Hey everybody, shall we just go and see these guys live... like right now?
If you get the chance to see them live, do it. I saw them live and I'd probably stab a guy with a screwdriver (Don't judge me) to do so again.
I saw them too and I'd do the same thing.. Just saying... They are realy awsome live.
Jacob Lucas oh God, I'm going to laugh for a week! Would love to see a live show, concert videos are nice, but these Go-Pro cams or whatever are making me I'll with all the bobbing about! Bring on the drones!
Ryan Gooslinger I've seen Kongos in concert twice now, and I can assure you these guys fucking ROCK ! ! !
Ryan Gooslinger Ok, let's go :)
Life cant get any better than this for John Kongos... four supremely talented sons , following in his footsteps.. Nothing can possibly compare ....
Always nice to find a musically talented band nowadays, not many left.
No. Only pop music sucks. You just have to look for the obscure but good ones.
Indeed!
not many left? There are actually a tons of talented artist out. It's just hard to get noticed/ exposure those days
Arnaud Roblin That's what social media is for...
I wonder if people realize that since the beginning of music people pretty much say that about every current generation's music. I mean I'm 29 and I'll here some crap on the radio from Minaj or some shit rapper and catch myself about to say, "man, music sucks nowadays.... nothing like back in my day." Then I remember "Baby Got Back," "Me So Horny," and "Push It" and all the other songs from the 80s and early 90s about dumb ass shit. EVERY generation is full of shitty music. Like in the movie Live Free or Die Hard, just because music is old doesn't make it "classic." There are plenty of bands out there like Kongos, the music they play just isn't commercial enough. Sex sells, that's no secret. I mean why do you think Katy Perry has a career? Her big ol titties and the fact she's nice to look at is a major if not only reason. Ever hear her sing live at an awards show??? She clearly didn't "make it" because of her "talent." Minaj is only famous for her ass. So yeah, sex sells. Kongos seem to have found (delayed) fame with this album despite it coming out like 2 years ago. There next album might be big, but then after that I bet they fall back into obscurity or at least out of the limelight. Much like the Black Keys. BK was huge like 3 or so years ago. No one heard them beforehand despite having multiple albums out and no one is really raving and playing the shit out of their newest album. Cage the Elephant, Mumford and Sons, etc. all have their brief moment in the sun and then fall off. Imagine Dragons is likely the next one to fade away. Sure they might have a huge fan base still, but as far as them getting radio airplay or a ton of attention on MTV/VH1...... not so much. On youtube their videos might get 10+ million views but that's about it. Point.... there's plenty of awesome music out there. You just got to know where to look. It's definitely not the radio and MTV anymore as good sources for NEW great music. Online.... youtube, spotify, pandora, last.fm...... etc. are all great places to find bands. The radio and MTV only play top 40..... if that, more like top 20 hits, and thanks to the younger generation that is usually shit like Bieber, Perry, Gaga, and Rhianna. So if you're young and complain about music "nowadays" you have only your peers to blame. Tween obsessed girls are usually the dictators of what comprises the "mainstream" music.
The only band who can do disco and rockabilly at the same time... Epic.
"Hey I Don't Know" ~ Kongos
Tears are shed, a shame
I should have known
I should have thought
I could have thought
Before I cast that stone
The waves radiate far and wide
There's a ringing in my ears
For a minute
I think I'm going blind
Tears are shed, a shame
I should have known
The crown weighs heavy
Heavy as I sit back in my throne
I say hey, it wasn't me
I'm just a pawn
But the devil's not into details
Where have all the heroes gone?
Hey I don't know, why don't you tell me?
Hey I don't know, why don't you tell me?
The dream is broken
Now the mind must be woken
So what are you waiting for
Tell me what's the hesitation?
What are you waiting for
Tell me what is the delay?
Hey I don't know, why don't you tell me?
Hey I don't know, why don't you tell me?
Hey I don't know, why don't you tell me?
Hey I don't know, why don't you tell me?
The victor earns the title "The Great"
All the mysteries get unlearned
All the history just becomes a string of dates
The hordes overrun in a clean sweep
Destroying everything that was built
Where's the glory in making mothers weep?
Hey I don't know, why don't you tell me?
Hey I don't know, why don't you tell me?
Hey I don't know, why don't you tell me?
Hey I don't know, why don't you tell me?
The dream is broken
Now the mind must be woken
So what are you waiting for
Tell me what's the hesitation?
What are you waiting for
Your special invitation?
What are you waiting for
Tell me what is the delay?
Hey I don't know, why don't you tell me?
Hey I don't know, why don't you tell me?
Hey I don't know, why don't you tell me?
Hey I don't know, why don't you tell me?

what a proud father John Kongos must be to have produced such talented sons . I love John's earlier stuff ,He's gonna step on you and tokoloshe man in the early 70s , grateful Noreen Faruga United Kingdom!
+passive101 yep.
Saludos

This is a band I'd fangirl over. I am not ashamed of this.
Why doesn't this song get played on the radio? It's so much better than "come with me now"
The very first time I heard "Come With Me Now" I went out and bought Kongos
Lunatic CD. There is at least 4 of the songs on that CD that should be playing on the air. I just love the way they have the cameras set up on all the band members during "Hey I Don't Know," it is so cool to watch! Money well spent on this album!!!!
These guys are incredible. I have a three song rule: I have to hear three songs I like before I buy the album. KONGOS passes. Accordion, five string bass, killer guitar and kick-ass percussion. Sick talent, guys!
i am actually keeping this coment in a notepad to see bout these groups
That is a clever rule.
Following that mighta saved me a few bux over the yrs.
That said, there've been some albums that I bought for one song, and then eventually, over time, realized I loved other tracks on there, too.
U never rly know til u've lived w/the music for a while.
Отлично, как в старые добрые 70 -е ) Спасибо
That is how we roll in South Africa.
Think the best compliment you can give songwriters is that the song is totally stuck in your head - and you don't mind a bit! Love the Kongos!
That is an *excellent* observation.
I'm gonna remember that.
I love the way this was made.... the camera placements and the way their footage was put together...
The song fits so well with the video and the energy of the song bleeds through this performance and it's assembly....
Simply AMAZING!
That's how we do it in South Africa.
1071 mercenaries overthrew umayyad emir take andalus
I'll second that "This song kicks ass"
I'm on a wicked fuckin' Kongos binge.
same
The 4 are brothers?
Hell yeah!
It almost has a 70's vibe going on.
There father were a 60'-70's singer. John Kongos. Probably inspiration from that......
This song still SLAPS!
Holy cheeses! It's so GREAT rock is not dead in the 21st century. This from someone that does everything to keep the 69's and 70's alive :)
GoPros and groovy road trip music. Win.
First band I've discovered worth listening to for years!
try these on. july talk, glorious sons, highly suspect
I so agree - very rare to find a 21st Century band with any depth
I get it , I really Do ! --- But Ya gotta @ least give `` The Revivalists`` a Try , They Dont Suck !
This old lady loves the beat of the kongos. They're as good as any group from the 70s, and that says a lot.
The 70's were ok but the 80's that's where the music was and i think the Kongos would have fit in there just as well
GoPros attached to the instruments and a catchy little rhythm - nice and you can dance to it - win, win.
I love Kongos so damn much.
This gets stuck in my head far too easily.
I love how where the GoPros make Dylan and Danny's movements look unreal. Mounting them on their headstocks was brilliant!
Kongos are truly God's among men.
Just discovered these guys..... have half their songs already...did not disappoint.... and I hate listening to the same groups songs back to back but not theirs... so much range...love it...like CCR meets rock meets blues jazz in a shaker... not stirred.
I swear these guys are one of the best bands I've heard in a LONG LONG time, I can only hope record labels and their B.S. "producers" don't F*** with anything this band does AT ALL! as they have lightning in a bottle! their album "Lunatic" is amazing from start to finish and you don't have to skip a single song!
10 out of 10. Even the Beatles couldn't have beaten that. From an Englishman.
My Grandsons & I Love this song !
This Band is Wicked, Love their beat and sound, something new with mixed genres
Бомбовая группа! Раньше о ней не слышал...
Seriously??? South African??? Wow these guys rock!!!! Long live the Kongos!!!
I'm almost 50 years old. This music is awesome. I can hear the roots of songs of old and yet very note is new in its own right. Love the sound. I am a fan!
This reminds me of 'gonna step on you' was living in SOuth Africa,Johannesburg, when Johnny Kongos was doing the rounds and so happy to hear the tradition of father to sons has been passed on...... yOu guys rock, and we have a radio station in Dublin, Ireland called Radio Nova, that play ur songs...... So there you go an NICE ONE for the BURUNDI drummers, I'm only joking
Linda Garizio yes, Step On You is a great song, the later aussie Party Boys cover in the 80s was big here in NZ too.
Oh how nice is that
Hey it's Candace. I WAS a huge fan. I was @ your concert at The University of Calgary. Your talent and passion WAS amazing. Your music doesn't have that anymore. Very very disappointing. Do you think your mom and dad are pleased with the 4 of you? I was a fan and loved ur talent. Wtf changed? Sincerely T.C.F
лучшая группа в наше время . Всем респект!!!
Rockin' I can't believe I didn't discover these guys until recently. Thank you Pandora.
Stumbled across lyrics Hey I Know , I Know Nothing & it Brought Me Here , now I've got 2 Kongas songs I know & a future download as well.
Absolutely love this band, first heard the acoustic version of this song on a local radio station and now I'm obsessed with them!
I love this song. I can not stop bobbing my head. That's when I know I've been lulled into yet another magical musical journey :)
I really love how they shot this video, lots of fun!
Man...where has this band been all my life?!
Damn. I heard y'all on the radio and now I'm obsessed 😍
2019 and I still cannot stop listening to this song ♥
Every bit a tribute to their rock star father. What a family!
Most impressive... the drums are BONKERS! Smashing, heavy, thunderous beat.... AND HE'S THE LEAD SINGER! Ridiculous.
I love this clip and the song and gosh I love this.
i listen to a lot of hip hop but kongos has got to be some of the most innovative rock bands theyve got a mix of every rock in them.
Only playing one day in London ,going to see what I do believe are a totally refreshing ,original Band ,they have a totally unique sound..they are just so different from everything else ,catchy tunes ,real music that just wants to get me on my feet and rock !
i THINK THIS BAND COULD BE MASSIVE !
Sometimes you come across some really great music on CZcams. THIS is definitely one of those times. :)
My new favorite group!
Классная песня. И как же я рад, что у них много хороших песен - непривычное звучание, бодрый ритм и клипы забавные)
To a guitar machine head, the world must look like this all the time
There is something brilliant about Kongos music, hey, I dont know, why don't you tell me!
You know that 'Americana/Alternative Rock' sound about heroes I've been looking for? Well listen to this!
>American
They're South African though lol
how can you not love this??? wow.
Best song I've heard in 30 yrs.
Absolutely brilliant!!! I love this band. My current favourite by a mile!😎😎😎
Se merecen que todo el mundo los conozca... su música no tiene explicación. Lo "perfecto no existe" pero esta banda sin duda lo es!!!!!!
love it......reminds me of old school good stuff....rock on lads and loving the vibe.
I was expecting it to be a song about a third baseman.
But this is good too.
I finally found it! Ahhh! I am at peace.
Turn the bass up and give him some solos. The bass line makes all the good songs. Five string bass for the win.
Just went to their show last night! They give him a lot of solos live!! So good!!!
I now know what the world looks like from the perspective of a guitar... my dream...
Dude...these guys get down. If I were rich I'd hire these Gus to play at my event in the furrier.
I saw the Kongos at the Brady Theater in Tulsa several years ago. A fun concert!!
Не знаю почему коменты только на английском,неужели наш народ такую музыку не слушает? они реально круты, и музло у них заводное)) всем хорошего настроения
JAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJA, Ste men xdxdxd

Hey! I don't know... but I like this song.
This video is so fucking cool. So simple. "Hey let's put those fish eyed surfboard cameras on our musical instruments during a live show" said a genius
I don't have words to describe what you guys, make me feel.
" K" for Cool, "O" for Awesome, "N" for Knowledge, "G" for Jenius, "O" for Artistic, "S" for speling
*genius
Its what it says on their web-site. G is for jenius is the joke.
that's part of the joke...

Ppl:Hey do you like kongos?
Me:Hey I don't know why don't you tell me?
Hell yes!
Nice to see that Opie made it out from the MC club and started playing the piano.....Good for him....Good for him.
ok, now it's official - time flies!!
Whenever I hear this song I start dancing like crazy
Love at 1:02 when Dylan goes nuts with his guitar :')
That bass line - and screen splits - really well produced - dad must be so proud!
ну миллион лайков!!!! Сама себе надоела! Переслушиваю!!!! Класс))))!
Не поверите, все тоже самое! Слушаю и балдею!✌️🤓
This band kills it
The epitome of funky
I heard this band thismorning. And it's instant love! I love them, I love their sound. It's like no other band out there. And "hey look" no booty dancers!! Ha Yay. Winning!
This song need way more views 😍
I love how I just discovered how stomping thumping dam good the Kongos are, +1 new fan ;)
I just found them today so far so good!
Me too
I just found my music. Goddamn it, its been a long journey. Love from India.
This is such a great song, and this band is so freaking awesome, and underrated af :(
Hey Kongos... I'm an 53 years old rocker from Croatia. And I can say that you have a new fan . Thank you and happy new year.
Ovu pjesmu obavezno puštam na Radio GG.
Ah, fresh new music. This band rocks!
I'm feelin it these guys are golden
Since when did buying CD's become a bad thing? People barely buy music in general. Support the artists 100%
LOOOOOOOVVVVVEEEEE This song!!! Hit Replay!!!!
