Saturday morning Cutie Time again folks! This week we give you this sweet sweet animated music video  Švihadlo's Oci otevreny (Opened eyes). They are a Czech reggae band and I think their green mate has a very unique way to open ppl's eyes ;) I love this furry chap, I will travel more by public transportation from now on, so maybe we can meet one day and then we will sing this song together. This gem was created by Jan Kulka.

[mp3 RCRD LBL]

What might seem an odd pairing on paper makes more sense as an album, as the X-Press 2 member cooks up flexible riddims over which Andy dribbles jah wisdom.
