Cover Boy (EP)

Cover Boy is an extended play (EP) by British singer, songwriter and recording artist Matt Fishel.

In May 2013, in an interview with Italian magazine "Pianeta Gay", Fishel announced that he was working on an EP of cover versions, including songs from the 1980s, 1990s and 2000s.

[4] Cover Boy was released worldwide on 14 July 2014 as a seven-track digital download on all international iTunes, Amazon and Google Play stores.

Fishel's version is included as the seventh and final track on Cover Boy due to his receiving several requests from fans to release it officially after he posted it on his MySpace page a few years earlier in the mid-2000s.

Fishel requested that his fans, regardless of whether they were "gay or straight, transgender, bi, black or white, young or old (or anything in-between)", submit photos of what 'Pride' meant to them, their partners and their friends, with a view to including the submissions in a collaborative music video celebrating international Pride.

[14] The video is a compilation of clips and footage taken from the original animated Canadian television series The Raccoons, from which "Run With Us" was the official theme tune.

In Fishel's video, the footage is re-edited together in time to the music as an homage to the show, with scenes matching the song's lyrics.
