Lightning Crashes
"Lightning Crashes" is a song by the rock band Live, from their 1994 album, ''Throwing Copper''.
Although the track was not released as a single in the US, it received enough radio airplay to peak at No. 12 on the ''Billboard'' Hot 100 Airplay chart in 1995. The song also topped the ''Billboard'' Album Rock Tracks (10 weeks) and Hot Modern Rock Tracks (9 weeks) charts.〔Whitburn, Joel ''The Billboard Book of Top 40 Hits'', 8th Edition (Billboard Publications, 2004), page 374〕〔 The song was also a top 40 hit in the UK,〔("Lightning Crashes" ) ''Chart Stats''〕 where the single was released in several different formats.
==Song meaning==
Lead singer Ed Kowalczyk said, "I wrote 'Lightning Crashes' on an acoustic guitar in my brother's bedroom shortly before I had moved out of my parents' house and gotten my first place of my own." Kowalczyk says that the video for "Lightning Crashes" has caused misinterpretations of the song's intent.
While the clip is shot in a home environment, I envisioned it taking place in a hospital, where all these simultaneous deaths and births are going on, one family mourning the loss of a woman while a screaming baby emerges from a young mother in another room. Nobody's dying in the act of childbirth, as some viewers think. What you're seeing is actually a happy ending based on a kind of transference of life.〔Scarisbrick,John. "Lightning Strikes." ''Spin Magazine'', June 1995, p. 52.〕
''New York'' magazine described the band as "deeply mystical" and claimed that the song was, "The story of a...connection between an old lady dying and a new mother at the moment of giving birth."
