Hi Kurt…..have you heard Cherry Blossom Girl by Air?
I heard it today and thought it sounded very familiar so tracked Captain down that I heard a great deal in the 80’s
I would be intrigued to know your view.
Best wishes
Pat
Hi Pat. The only similarity that comes to my mind is that we produced songs in the 80s with a 70s vibe, while Air sound partially like 80s in 2004. Is this called timeless?

Hi Kurt, Thank you so much for the reply….I found it ‘spooky’ as within 10 seconds I was trying to remember where I had heard it before. When I did the people I was with found it spooky also. I am not a musician with a musical ear so I guess people hear things differently but both great songs and ‘timeless’ is a good way to describe them.
Wishing you well sir and thanks again.
Lieber Kurt, ich bin in Zürich gross geworden mit ihrer Musik, bin ursprünglich aus dem Balkan. Heute Lebe ich in Australien, doch Doub3le wird immer einen wichtigen Platz in meinem Herzen haben. You guys are the Admirals of my heart🥰🌹
Today I heard The Captain of Her Heart, and was reminded how beautifully this song is composed and sung. What an awesome, heartfelt song. I Googled the video for it, and I am curious if one of the female models is actress Denise Richards…. is it? It doesn’t matter… the video is great too… something melancholy yet joyous and sexy. I hope to see this song performed live someday, if you ever perform it in Los Angeles.
Kurt…. TCOHH … could be the finest song ever written and sung FACT. You have such a spectacular voice Kurt. I’ll never forget where I first heard it. It was 1986. I was 18 and just graduated High School. I bought he cassette at the THE WAREHOUSE record shop in Torrance CA … popped it in and drove my Fiat Sports Spide convertible all the way to Hollywood and back REPLAYING the song over and over and over and over again… it warms my heart every time I hear it to this day. It makes me think of my youth … the freedom and innocence and the unknown… thanks again for creating one of my ALL TIME favorites … a true masterpiece ! Please TOUR?!!! Most fondly, Mike Morgan
Hi Kurt! There is a feeling that I can’t explain that the song Gliding leaves me with. It is simply wonderful, it touches my soul.
City of Rain is a beautiful song, I really liked it, just like Man in Love
I send you a cordial greeting, Iago, a 20-year-old from Rosario, Argentina, who since we were children together with my brother, we consumed his music.
Your voice is one of the best, so smooth. TCOHH was a great song. You should try to tour in So. CA. Agua Caliente would be a great place for a concert. Pala casino as well. They have a nice outdoor concert venue, up against the mountains. Would be great to hear you sing live. 🙂
Thank you 🙏
This song turned out to be a great success, happy for you!!! It’s still going great, the lyrics are timeless, yet very actual. Glad to contribute somehow 😊 a little bit.
I started to read some of the comments below the video but there are way too many!!! 😆
Hello Mr Maloo, I was 8 years old when your title ‘Captain Of Her Heart’ was released in 1985 and even 37 years after its release I’m still a fan
I would like to know if you are planning to release a new album this year and it is that I would like because I love your voice
Hi Kurt!
Someone recently pointed out to me a video of Double on which I was on. What a beautiful surprise that was, believe me I had never seen the whole video we shot in Paris, as I was traveling a lot then. Thank you for posting it on YouTube!! It’s great.
Anna Mosca here, from Marylin Gauthier Agency, the 1st blonde in the video (waiting on a balcony – rather bored – then – finally – walking down the street).
I hope this finds you well… that was so long ago, ahaha.
Are you still living in Zurich?
Hi Anna! Yes, a long time ago, indeed. Thanks again for participating, you look great in the video! I live in Hamburg now and hope this finds you well too.
Hello Kurt!
The captain of her heart is a timeless song, music/lyrics , arrgt, singing are wonderful!
I really would like to have your advise on one of my songs?
So if you have a few mn to listen, here’s the link Youtube (demo)
Hallo Herr Maloo,
Bin auf der Suche der CD’s Loopy Avenue (2006), Summer Of Better Times (2010), What About (2014)
Leider in Europa nicht mehr lieferbar?! Amazon US will nicht liefern – wie weiter? Haben Sie noch welche im Keller, die nicht verstauben und gehört werden wollen?
Gerne höre ich von Ihnen
One in a million shot – just absolutely LOVE the Radio Version of The Captain of Her Heart, especially the smooth sound of the guitar – written tab? Great song with an incredible voice.
Señor kurt maloo tiene pensado hacer un nuevo álbum de musica?
Si es así eso seria maravilloso
Soy un joven de 17 años que vive en México y me encanta toda su musica y ese estilo de jazz único que tienen sus canciones
Saludos

Hello Kurt – 31 years after the fact. For some reason, “The Captain of Her Heart,” popped into my head while I was playing my keyboards tonight. The first time I heard it was on the radio in Billings, Montana in the United States, and I was setting up with a band. I actually remembered who did the song, and it wasn’t hard to find it again after all this time. It still has that hook in it which just catches you, and the production on the song is great. I’m very glad to hear and see that you’re still at it. And I’m playing as well, albeit south of San Francisco. I hope that you’re well.
Hallo Herr Maloo,
das ist jetzt etwas kompliziert. Ich suche ein Lied von ihnen. Kann jetzt aber nicht sagen ob es unter Double oder von ihnen als Solo gesungen wurde. Es muss um Captain of her Heart rum gewesen sein. Aber auf den Alben ringsherum konnte ich es nicht finden. Gibt es eine Möglichkeit eine Liste sämtlicher Veröffentlichungen irgendwo zu finden? Leider kann ich nicht mehr ganz sagen was als gesungene Komponenten vorkommen. Aber nicht lachen jetzt. “…Looking for…” kam drinne vor und ein Instrumentales Fragment war öfters, naja, n stelle sich ein kurzes höheres hupen vor das mit einem “hallen” gespielt wurde. Genauer kann ich es leider nicht beschreiben….Bitte nicht lachen 😀
Hallo aus Russland! Ich bin Alexander aus Izhevsk (vor Ural). Danke für Double…85, 87 Einfach super die Alben… Der Stil, die Atmosphäre…Sound…sehr liebe…Mein Favorit auf heute- “Wonder”…danke…Alles Gute!
Just saw where you were in Toronto. Any chance you will ever come to Texas? Would soooooo love to see and. Hear you in person. I have waited so long. Still waiting!😍
Mr. Maloo, there is currently an open invitation for international acts to perform in the Kansas City Jazz District during a three-year rollout for a centennial celebration of the oldest jazzhaus still in full swing. Would you be interested in bringing your unique sound to KC in celebration of all that is Jazz?
Bin dank dem dem heutigen Bericht im Tagi auf Ihre Seite gestossen. Klar war ich damals ein Fan vom Captain, wusste aber bisher nicht, dass Sie die Sache weiter gezogen haben.
Die neueren Sachen die ich bis jetzt gehört habe (auf Spotify) finde ich grossartig.
Manchmal ist der Tagi eben schon ein tolles Blatt. Freue mich riesig, dass ich wieder Musik von Ihnen hören kann und hoffe, dass Sie noch lange weiter machen.
Alles Liebe und Gute für Ihre Zukunft – rock on –
und herzliche Grüsse aus Uetikon am See
