¡Sail
¡Suguru Ikeda
Description
[Machine Translation] Taku Ikeda is based in Iriomote Island. It has been three and a half years since his best album Nagi ~Nagi~. Sail is his first release in five years, and it is also his first album with new songs. The title "Sail" refers to a sail. A sailboat cannot go forward without wind. It means that we should lift up the sails and go forward with the wind firmly blowing in our lives. This is the long-awaited first work by Ikeda, who had longed for island life, and returned to the island. The song is composed of pop numbers that Ikeda has been storing up for the past five years, although there are high expectations that the songs are born from her island life, including going out to the sea, farming, and hunting. The pop songs Ikeda creates are filled with the smell of the island. The songs are "Cheering" about high school ball players, "To All Those Who Are Struggling" for people in their 30s and 40s, "Picture of the Sun" for a nursing mother, "Boy in the Fragrant City" born from an encounter in Middle Eastern Syria, "Lullaby for You Only" for a daughter, "Someday..." for her father, who is her ultimate goal, and "Someday..." for her mother, who is her father. The themes of the songs are people, life, encounters, nature, words, adversity, and the way we perceive things. The usual themes are interspersed with lighthearted numbers.
