"'''Comrade K.K.'''" is a [[K.K. Slider]] [[List of K.K. Slider songs|song]] in the {{SER}} that first appeared in {{DnM}}. The song is based upon ''{{Wp|ryūkōka}}'', or early {{Wp|Shōwa (1926–1989)|Shōwa-era}} popular music in Japanese. ''Ryūkōka'' combines aspects of Japanese and western folk music. The live version in particular resembles {{Wp|Bard (Soviet Union)|bard music}}, a genre that was common among amateur musicians in the former {{Wp|Soviet Union}}.

"'''Comrade K.K.'''" is a [[K.K. Slider]] [[List of K.K. Slider songs|song]] in the {{SER}} that first appeared in {{DnM}}. The song is reminiscent of traditional Russian folk music and especially [[wikipedia:Bard (Soviet Union)|Bard music]], a genre that was common among amateur musicians in the former [[wikipedia:Soviet Union|Soviet Union]]. This is reflected in the song's title, with ''comrade'' being commonly associated with communism and Russian speakers. The song's Japanese name refers to [[wikipedia:Ryūkōka|ryūkōka]], or early [[wikipedia:Shōwa (1926–1989)|Shōwa-era]] popular music in Japanese, which is also heavily influenced by European folk music and known for the heavy use of the accordion.  
 
 
The Japanese title (''Shōwa Keke Kayō'', or "Shōwa-era K.K. Ballad") and album art reflect the influence of ''ryūkōka'', while the English song title reflects the influence of bard music; the term ''comrade'' is commonly associated with Soviet Russia and communist politics.

[[File:AlbumArt-Comrade.png|thumb|left|128px|Album cover in {{NL|nolink}}]]
The album cover for "Comrade K.K.", originally used for its Japanese [[e-Reader card]], features K.K. Slider with hair, glasses, and a suit. In {{NL|short|nolink}}, K.K.'s portrait is against a gray and beige background with writing, akin to a classic Japanese record. In {{NH|short|nolink}}, K.K.'s portrait is against a purple background, resembling pop art from the early 20th century. The {{NH|short|nolink}} cover reads "けけ歌謡" (''Keke Kayō'') in kanji, meaning "K.K. Ballad"; this is derived from the song's Japanese name, "しょうわけけかよう" (''Shōwa Keke Kayō''), or "Shōwa-era K.K. Ballad."

The song's album cover features K.K. Slider with hair, glasses, and a suit. In {{NL|short|nolink}} K.K. is against a gray and beige background, while in {{NH|short|nolink}} he is against a purple background. The song's North American [[e-Reader card]] artwork features [[Weber]], [[Iggy]], [[Rolf]], [[Lobo]], and K.K. Slider; they appear to wear buttoned-up ''ushanka'' style hats (a hat popularized in the Soviet-era) and performing Russian folk dance, with a building resembling {{Wp|Saint Basil's Cathedral}} appearing in the background. The Japanese e-Reader card artwork instead features the image used for its {{NL|short|nolink}} album cover.
 
 
K.K.'s appearance on the album cover may be a reference to the iconic ''ryūkōka'' singer {{Wp|Taro Shoji|Tarō Shōji}}, who wore similar rounded glasses. Shōji was a prominent leftist figure who studied Marxist economics, which fits with the connotations of the title "Comrade K.K." K.K.'s appearance may also be a reference to Soviet-era Russian composer {{Wp|Dmitri Shostakovich}}, which relates to the Russian folk style of the song and the Japanese song title.
 
 
 
The song's North American e-Reader card artwork is unique, and has a more overt Russian theme. It features [[Weber]], [[Iggy]], [[Rolf]], [[Lobo]], and K.K. Slider; they are wearing buttoned-up ''ushanka''-style hats (popularized in the Soviet era) and performing a Russian folk dance, in front of a building resembling {{Wp|Saint Basil's Cathedral}}.
