Background

"I Missed the Shock" was written by Qumico Fucci (福士久美子, Fukushi Kumiko), who was a member of the band Sherbets. It was arranged by the band Eurox, who were involved in Nakamori's 1988 album Fushigi. On live performances of the song, Nakamori wore a costume that she found on an Isetan department store magazine advertisement. Costume designer Mariko Koga was initially reluctant to provide it to Nakamori, but she saw Nakamori's enthusiasm and gave it to her. The costume was featured in Nakamori's Femme Fatale tour in 1989.[2]

Nakamori also performed the song on the 39th Kōhaku Uta Gassen, making her sixth appearance on NHK's New Year's Eve special. She would not appear on the special again until 2002.[3]

Chart performance

"I Missed the Shock" peaked at No. 3 on Oricon's weekly singles chart and sold over 311,200 copies, ending a streak of 16 No. 1 singles from 1984 to 1988.[4][5]
