窓をぬけ出しておいで 月あかり照らす通り
いらないものなど置いて 必要なものだけもっておいで
おー ワルツアメリカ
動きだす このダウンタウントレイン
そう なにもいらない 答えなど 用意せずに
世界は大きなお祭り 友情 愛 満ちあふれた
誰かがきっと待ってる その気配 呼び覚ませば
おー ワルツアメリカ
真鍮の警笛が 始まりを告げる
帆船が 港 離れる そのとき
一筋の雷 ひたはしる轟き
夜の空ひらめき からだじゅう貫き
幾千の花火が 咲きほこる喜び
もたれかかっているきみが 眠ってるあいだに
ぼくはこのうたをかいた 手探りで 深く 柔らかいところまで
おー ワルツアメリカ
飛び乗った このダウンタウントレイン
ああ 自由の女神 開拓者 アドベンチャー
もう なにも考えず
おやすみ ぐっすり 今夜は

Iwashita Keisuke Sardine
My last album from 2002, '21st Century Protest Songs,' is my most important work, and the effort that went into it was no small feat. With the 5-track instrumental collection 'Chicane,' I showed the density of the backing tracks, but with this 'Gaiden,' I wanted to reveal how the songs were created and give a three-dimensional look at the structure of '21st Century Protest Songs.' So, in the 2025 version of 'Gaiden,' I included six simple demos, two outtakes, and also two tracks I made around the same time that have nothing to do with the album.
So, for this 2026 expanded edition, we've added one previously unreleased Eurobeat track at the beginning, three alternate versions of "Hen-sin" recorded back in 2001, and one track that's a mix of demos and outtakes. I think it turned out to be a pretty diverse collection. I hope you enjoy Iwashita Keisuke Sardine's footprints from the early 21st century.
Artist Profile
Iwashita Keisuke Sardine
My name is Iwashita Keisuke, also known as Sardine. Over the 20 years from 1983 to 2003, there are about 170 songs that I recorded using multitrack recording by myself. From 2024 to 2025, I have been releasing albums that compile these songs in chronological order. Then, in 2026, I plan to release several best-of albums based on the significance of the songs and listeners' preferences. Sardine's music is diverse. It ranges from accessible pop to socially conscious message songs, from progressive constructions to punk subversiveness. I'm a formidable pianist, a mad synthesizer player, a halting guitarist, a tone-reading bassist, a loose percussionist, and a clumsy singer-songwriter with solo multi-choruses. All of these parts are integrated into one persona. A mixture of romance, cold-heartedness and passion, depicting incoherent anxiety and yearning for something unattainable, this is an oldie but an evergreen. Please listen to Sardine's expressive music.
