抱きしめてくれ
いつも眩暈がして倒れそう
抱きしめてくれ
俺は意気地なしの莫迦野郎
それは夕暮れの
雑踏で
卒倒し
気絶しそう
ずっと震えてた
雑踏で
苦しめてくれ
まっすぐに歩いているのかな?
苦しめてくれ
ぼろぼろだボロ雑巾だ
これはいい薬
即効で
颯爽と
背筋伸ばして
しゃんと歩けるさ
雑踏で
宙ぶらりんで
ふわふわ浮いているようだ
宙ぶらりんで
オロカモノメと罵った
遠いわが家へと
特急に
殺到し
家にたどり着くまで
立ってられるかな?
(がんばって、もうすぐだ)
耐えてられるかな?
(弱音を吐かないで)
コンコースの中
雑踏で
雑踏で
おー男が崩れ落ちる
雑踏で

Hug
Iwashita Keisuke Sardine
"Don't Let Me Go" was released in September 1996 and is Keisuke Iwashita's only self-produced CD. Production began in April and took about three months to complete. All lyrics, composition, arrangement, performance, singing, recording, editing, and cover illustrations were done by Iwashita himself. My partner gave me appropriate advice during the recording, so I credited her with "directions." At the time, I didn't have a computer, so I asked Kojima Recording in Yoyogi to do the mastering and printing. I ordered 500 sheets and 5 cardboard boxes. I priced it at 2,000 yen, but only about 200 copies were sold. Afterwards, I handed them out to people (I still have about 100 copies left in my closet).
The following is a quote from Kazuhiko Yukikawa, which was published in the "Independent Edition" of "Music Magazine January 1997" (pages 266-267).
"Don't Let Me Go" is a CD containing seven songs, mostly played and sung on the piano. It has a smooth flow similar to the quiet songs of Elton John, Todd Rundgren, and Pete Townshend, an oozing pop sensibility, and a heartrending voice and melody that remain in your heart.
Artist Profile
Iwashita Keisuke Sardine
My name is Iwashita Keisuke, also known as Sardine. Over the 18 years from 1985 to 2002, I recorded about 150 songs that I recorded over multiple tracks by myself. I will release these songs one by one in 2024. First, I released the anthology "Catchy 22" a collection of familiar songs, on February 24th. Next, I released the bitter-sweet second anthology, "Sardine's Confession" on March 23rd. On April 27th, I released a collection of socially conscious works, "21st Century Protest Songs." Then, I will release "50/50," a piano and vocal album, on May 24th. After that, she released her first collection of works, "Everything/Nothing," on June 23rd, followed by a gem of a collection of lyrical poems, "Don't Let Me Go," on July 15th, and "Cut 'N' Paste," a collection of controversial works. It is scheduled to be Released on August 10th. "Henshin" will be released on November 16th, where I attempted a love song. These are oldies but evergreen songs that depict a mixture of romanticism, cold-heartedness, and passion, as well as incoherent anxiety and a longing for something that cannot be reached. Please listen to Sardine's songs.
