Catchy 22 (Pop Anthology1984~2002) Front Cover

Lyric

Brothers in Arms (2000)

Iwashita Keisuke Sardine

どうしたんだ 水くさいな 最近音沙汰 ないじゃないか

電話ください 今すぐに 俺の兄弟

どうかしたら 忘れそうな 間柄か そうじゃないだろう

呼ばれたら すぐにだって 駆けつけるぜ 俺の兄弟

すっかり無口を決めこんで 虚ろな目をして塞ぎこむ

腕組みばかりじゃ しょうがないぜ ホントの人生は

ください ください ふてないで やってちょうだい

ください ください 魂を持った 兄弟

通じあった ことばも消え かつてはあった 熱気も冷め

世知辛い世の中よ 冬の時代 ついに到来

無慈悲な世間と詰るかい 無力なおのれを嘆くがいい

頬杖ついてたってしょうがないぜ ホントの人生は

ください ください 気合い入れてやってちょうだい

ください ください 心配するなって 兄弟

グレート!

下種の勘繰り おやめなさい

足掻いたって 勝ち目なんて ないですぜ

潔く 負けちまって いいじゃないの こんな問題

無邪気な笑顔 どこへ行った 陽気で のん気で いいじゃないか

なんとかなるもの そんなもんさ 今後の人生は

ください ください ケツを割らないでちょうだい

ください ください 命預けますぜ 兄弟

ください 根性見せてちょうだい

ください ください 俺とおまえは 兄弟!

When I began digital music distribution in 2024, my first release was *Catchy 22*, a collection of twenty-two songs I considered my signature tracks. However, I soon realized that this particular track-list failed to convey the true essence of the music, so I decided to withdraw it.
Unlike the version from two years ago, the 2026 edition is uncompromisingly "pop" from start to finish. I carefully selected only those songs that embody five key qualities; brightness, energy, a catchy rhythm, memorability, and positivity. To avoid any sense of tedium, I ruthlessly trimmed away any redundancies, arranged the tracks chronologically (I tried emulating David Bowie's "Nothing Has Changed" and traveling back in time), and included two previously unreleased songs.
This is an anthology packed with pop music. Please enjoy the rich variety of "sweets" served up by Iwashita Keisuke Sardine.

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.
