1. Goldfish is a live electronic act from Cape Town, South Africa. The two members Dominic Peters and David Poole are jazz musicians who met while studying music at university. They recorded their first album - ''Caught in the Loop'' - themselves, with little more than a double bass, a saxophone and a couple of synths. This self-released album led to a cult following and numerous hits in their home country, where they have been voted best live act, and are known as the 'Fishies' to their fans.
Goldfish have taken their live act across the globe, including opening for Fatboy Slim, Mr Scruff, The Audio Bullys, Paul van Dyk, Pete Tong and Stereo MC's. 'Re-invention of the DJ' is a phrase that has been used to describe their combination of live instruments such as double bass, saxophones, keyboards, flute, and vocals; with samplers, effects, synths, and freeform improvisation.
Goldfish's second album was signed to Pacha. ''Perceptions of Pacha'', released at Miami's Winter Music Conference March 2008, features 10 new tracks and the international release includes a second disc with a live performance video and remixes by top DJs from around the world. The band toured the US and Europe during 2008, and held a 4 month Friday night summer residency at super-club Pacha Ibiza.
Their website is www.goldfishlive.com.
2. The second Goldfish is located in Berlin/Germany. Their style is most likely labeled as "Alternative" - the influences reach from Eels, Breeders, Wipers and PJ Harvey up to Portishead…
The five members Danuta (Git./Voc.), Lutz (Bass), Benni (Key.), Marcin (Drums) and Tilman (Git./Perc.) stick together since Feb. 2012, the origin Goldfishes (with Benni and Danuta) recorded the debut-album "'coming home" already in 2008 - on Steve Morells Label „Pale Music“.
Goldfish's sound by the way convinced the well known producers Thomas Stern and Olsen Involtini. While Stern, former member of „Crime & the City Solution“ and producer of Meret Becker and Katharina Franck, picked up his bass again for some songs, Olsen („Seeed“, Peter Fox, Bela B.) made a beautiful mixdown of Goldfish's „Carry Your Name“.

4. There is an indie jazz band in Japan called GoldFish. Official website here.

The phrase "I moonwalk away" is repeated multiple times throughout the song, suggesting that the singer is trying to move on from a situation.

Perhaps the singer is trying to distance themselves from a relationship that has ended. The phrase "I moonwalk away" suggests that the singer is stepping back from a situation and trying to move on in a graceful and nonchalant way. It could also signify that the singer is trying to keep their dignity intact and walk away from a situation without looking back.
Overall, the lyrics to "Moonwalk Away" are open to interpretation and could mean different things to different people. However, the repetition of the phrase "I moonwalk away" suggests that the song is about moving on from a situation with grace and dignity.

I lost a very good mate of mine 4 years ago. He had just qualified as a SANavy diver at the age of 21. Leaving his funeral, i put on the radio and listened to this on the long drive home. Your friends and family love and miss you dearly. #RIPKyleGerber
