The E.P contains a story, told through three songs, which combines the visual themes of the “Moonwalking to Your Heart Collection” with an exploration of Guts; his beliefs and desires. This story is a fantasy, a love story begun in earnest and ending in destruction, as two lovers set a course, alone and together, from the earth to the other side of the moon. The first song “Guts’ Lullaby” finds the protagonist and his lover resolving to leave for the stars. The piece focuses on the concepts of both commitment and reassurance through the metaphor of cremation and rebirth. The second song “The Lovers’ Moonwalk” shows Guts and his lover setting out amongst the lunar landscape; bare and huge. They are protected only by each other, looking back at the world, hands held. The third song “At the Rainbows’ End” is a song of mourning. Raw; the lovers’ journey is finishing. Lost in the wilderness of the moon in shadow, as he had known it could be, Guts’ resolve and commitment is totally broken in one sense, but in another remains entirely intact. All songs were written and performed by musician, poet and model Raoul Colvile and feature Oliver Lyon on cello. http://www.mjm-store.com/engine/shop/product/AW10GUTS-EP/Moon+walking+to+your+heart+EP.
