Lyric

Oh, No I can't explain

Iwashita Keisuke Sardine

華奢な指先をみていた はにかむ笑顔みつめた

私の好きになるひとは みんなどっか似ている

どうして笑っていられるの 楽しかったっていうの

好きだといってくれたひと みんな私以外を選ぶ

Oh, No これから先どうしよう Oh, No どこへ行こう

Oh, No 考えられないよ 今はあなたしかみえない

優しい瞳をしていた 恥ずかしそうに喋ってた

私の好きになったひとは 面影だけを置いてゆく

Oh, No 逢いたくなったらどうしよう Oh, No さびしいよ

もう 連絡できないの それをあなたにはいえない

限られた場所 わずかな時間 探し求めていた

許されないと 分かっていても 愛を育てていた

どうして帰ってしまうの 私をひとり残して

好きだといってくれたひと ぎこちなく抱きしめる

Oh, No これからずっとどうしよう どうやって生きていこう

Oh, No なにも欲しくない 今はあなたしか要らない

Oh, No Oh, No

Oh, No ことばにならない 二度とあなたに逢えない

The album 'Transformation,' recorded in 2001, was written all at once in a short period of time. The motivation for writing it was simple: I realized, 'Come to think of it, I still haven't made a collection of love songs.' Every song on the album is interconnected, giving the album an overall mood. If I were to put it into words, it's an expression of feelings akin to transparent sadness.

The cover photo was taken by my agent Taro-chan at the excavation site in Fuchu City. Since the album depicts scenes of the city in various places, perhaps the title could have been 'Tokyo.'

I hope it conveys something of the atmosphere of the time in 2001 when it was recorded.

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.
