サッと階段 駆けのぼれ
登りつめたら 息を詰め
なめらかに滑るのだ しくじらぬように
きっと今夜は眠れない
明日のことが気になって
痙攣する指先を止めてよ、ナイチンゲール
この重い空気は いったい何なんだろう
誰がぼくに期待するもんか
弾く前に祈る ひたすらに願う
ぼくの意志のまま 動いてください
ずっと考え続けてた
窓の端に腰をかけて
ひどく華奢で細い腕をふり回しながら
きっと明日をしくじれば
まるで信用なくすのさ
もっとぼくは厚かましさが欲しいよ、マチルダ
空まわりしている 息が詰まりそうだ
どうか力を与えておくれ
弾く前に祈る ひたすらに願う
ぼくの意志のまま 動いてください
タバコを吸うとさ 指先が冷えるって
知ったことじゃないぜ、ルードヴィッヒ
ルードヴィッヒ!
弾く前に祈る ひたすらに願う
ぼくの意志のまま 動いてください
弾く前に祈る ひたすらに願う
ぼくの意志のまま 動いてください
弾く前に祈る ひたすらに願う
ぼくの意志のまま 動いてください

Music in the Air
Iwashita Keisuke Sardine
The third installment of the Cassette Gadget series features recordings from two periods: 6 tracks from Tokyo in 1985 and 5 tracks from Kumamoto in 1987.
The album from between, 1986, is included on the masterpiece "Everything/Nothing."
1985 was when I reached his mental and technical limits, and 1987 was when I was questioning the very concept of home recording. That's why I don't like the works from these two years very much, but although the collection lacks cohesion, each song has its own appeal when viewed individually. Even at their worst, Iwashi's music has always been pop. I want you to listen without prejudice.
P.S. I am no longer a smoker.
Artist Profile
Iwashita Keisuke Sardine
My name is Iwashita Keisuke, also known as Sardine. Over the 20 years from 1983 to 2003, I have recorded about 200 songs by myself. I compiled these into eight albums and released them one by one in 2024. In 2025, instead of an anthology, I will release an album edited in chronological order. 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.
