Even before being released as a single, The Zookeeper's Boy was played intensively on Danish radio stations. As a result, before it was even released as a single, it won a Zulu Award for single of the year, and placed as number 1 on GAFFA's list of the top 5 hits of 2005, with the previously-released Mew single "Special," placing second.
