Lyric

I'm stupid one

Iwashita Keisuke Sardine

午前3時前 ぼく ぼんやり ぼうぜん

砂に埋もれた クルマのボンネット 腰かけ

ぼくは莫迦だ バカヤローだ

さっきからずっと 自分を責めている

だけど きみも莫迦だ バカヤローだ

無力なやつさ 頼れないやつさ

目の前にぼくがいるというのに

気づかない

午前3時ごろまで ぼくたち 防波堤

ことば失くしたまま 先行き見えない

きみは莫迦だ バカヤローだ

どうして壁をつくってしまうのさ

そうさ ぼくも莫迦だ バカヤローだ

壊れもののきみ 荒っぽい手つきで

傷つけるばかりが得意だもの

ぼくは莫迦だ バカヤローだ

と、自分を責めてりゃ そりゃあ気持ちがいいさ

だけど きみも莫迦だ バカヤローだ

「そっとしておいて」「そっとしておくよ」

目の前のきみにぼくはさわれない

    Drifting

    Iwashita Keisuke Sardine

I lived in Hamamatsu City, Shizuoka Prefecture, from 1989 to 1996 and worked for a manufacturer of educational musical instruments. As a professional instructor, I taught across Japan, arranged music, and wrote sheet music.
The songs written during those seven years all have a somewhat composed demeanor. The reason I gave the album the pretentious title 'Windsor Knot' was also a reflection on my days as a salaryman, always wearing a tie for work.
When it was released in January 2025, it was an epic work of over an hour with 18 tracks, but for this re-release, I have carefully selected 8 songs to present. I believe the album now has a more concentrated structure.
I hope listeners can sense the loneliness and inner struggle glimpsed behind the stylish front of a man reaching the end of his youth.

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.
