Syrup16g formed when Igarashi and drummer Nakahata Daiki met at vocational school in Sendai and decided to form a band. Shortly after, bassist Satou Motoaki and a short-lived vocalist joined the band. In 1996, the vocalist left and guitarist Igarashi (who had written the songs all along) took over vocal duties. From the release of their first 6 song demo EP in 1998 until 2001, the band built quite a name for themselves in the Sendai indie scene, attracting the attention of indie label Daizawa Records. In 2001, Syrup's first album, Copy was released on Daizawa records to critical acclaim, with the record-release show at Shimokitazawa's Club Que selling out. Their major label debut on Columbia, Coup D'etat, followed in 2002. Shortly after the release of Coup D'etat, bassist Satoh parted ways with the band, and Studio Apes bassist Kitada Maki joined to replace him. For about 3 years, Syrup16g kept up a backbreaking pace of touring and studio work, consistently releasing more than one album a year and never failing to both tour in support of the albums and appear at major events such as the Rock in Japan Festival and the Fuji Rock Festival. In addition, they have released two live DVDs and a number of singles. At a December 7, 2007 concert at NHK Hall, the band announced that it would dissolve. They played their last live in Budoukan on March 1st, 2008. However, on June 27, 2014 it was announced that the band had plans to reunite and release a new album, called Hurt. The band will be on tour in Japan in July 2015.

Syrup16g Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

センチメンタルな恋は
どうしようもなく破綻していくもので
安心したらさようなら

通信簿に書かれたよ
協調性に欠けてます なんて
妄想気味のロンリーガイ
でも心が痛い
たまに届かなくて
ひどい時は泣いて
いいね もう

真空管の音が好き
高校生になったら部屋で
毎日ギター弾いてた

最低の気分を抱いて
方法論だけを磨いた
君に憧れてた

でも心が痛い
たまに届かなくて
酷い時は泣いて
いいね もう

白けた顔して進め
今しかない とか言って
妄想 もうよそう

センチメンタルな恋は
どうしようもなく破綻していくもんで

でも心が痛い
たまに届かなくて
ひどい時は泣いて
いいね もう

でも心が痛い
たまに届かなくて
ひどい時は泣いて




いいね もう
いいね もう

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Syrup16g's song センチメンタル exploring the sentimental emotions of love, which can be inevitably destructive. The song seems to reflect on the disadvantages of falling in love with someone who is difficult to approach or who doesn't feel the same way. The singer uses various metaphors to describe the melancholic longing that comes with a sentimental kind of love. For example, they describe feeling like a "lonely guy" with "delusional feelings" or experiencing a "heartache" that sometimes leads to tears.


Despite the difficulties and setbacks of this kind of love, the singer acknowledges that they are fond of it. They reminisce about how they used to practice guitar every day while listening to the sound of a vacuum tube, and they admit to having admired someone but feeling inadequate in comparison. They ultimately come to terms with their emotions and seem to realize that the infatuation is not necessarily meant to be. They urge themselves to move on and not be held back by their sentimental attachment to someone who is not interested.

on 生活

君に言いたい事はあるか
そしてその根拠とは何だ
涙ながしてりゃ悲しいか
心なんて一生不安さ

君に存在価値はあるか
そしてその根拠とは何だ
涙ながしてりゃ悲しいか
心なんて一生不安さ

I want to hear me
生活はできそう？
それはまだ
計画を立てよう
それも無駄

君の動体視力はどうだ
そしてその目に何を見てるんだ
誰が何言ったって気にすんな
心なんて一生不安さ

こんな世界になっちまって
君の声さえもう
思い出せないや

そこで鳴っている
そこで鳴っているのは
