Bulutsuzluk Özlemi is a prominent Turkish rock band that was formed by Nejat Yavaşoğulları (guitar, vocals), Sina Koloğlu (keyboard), Coşkun Şirinkal (bass), Murat Özbey (drums & percussion). The band's name can be literally translated as "the longing for clear (unclouded) weather".

The band is known for their political, sharply-barbed lyrics and Yavaşoğulları's quirky vocals.

The different professions of the band members are also of interest: Yavaşoğulları is an architect, Koloğlu is a journalist, Eldes and Ünal are engineers.
