Outline
[edit]"Electric Mole" is a recording of the final concert of Shiina's nationwide 2003 "Sugoroku Ecstasy (
Midway through the concert, footage cuts to a different night's performance, skipping the songs "Kōfukuron" and "Ringo no Uta", the debut of the latter, which were played live but did not make it onto the concert DVD. Consequently, some fans expressed disappointment with the way the footage was edited for the DVD.
As background video displayed during the concert shows Shiina's trademark mole disappearing from her left cheek, the DVD's title of "Electric Mole" is assumed to reference to this, and the way she later had the mole surgically removed in the winter of 2003.
