"''You Love the Thunder''" is a song written and performed by American singer-songwriter Jackson Browne from his 1977 live album, ''Running on Empty'', recorded at a concert at Garden State Arts Center in Holmdel, New Jersey, on September 6, 1977. Released as the third single a full year after the album came out, it only reached #109 on ''Billboards Bubbling Under Hot 100 Singles chart, though it received increased Album-Oriented Rock airplay, as well. The B-side of the U.S. single was "The Road," however, the B-side for the British single was "Cocaine."〔Wikipedia Jackson Browne Discography Accessed July 10, 2012.〕〔Paris, Russ. (JACKSON BROWNE COMPLETE DISCOGRAPHY )〕 ==History== The lyrics seem to describe the relationship of a musician and a spouse or girlfriend who comes along on tour, keeping with the theme of the ''Running on Empty'' album, but they can be read more universally, as well: :''You love the thunder, and you love the rain — :''What you see revealed within the anger is worth the pain. :''And before the lightning fades and you surrender, :''You've got a second to look at the dark side of the man. :''You love the thunder and you love the rain — :''You know your hunger like you know your name. :''And I know you wonder how you ever came :''To be a woman in love with a man in search of the flame... In his 1978 review of the album, Paul Nelson wrote: "In 'You Love the Thunder,' Browne forges a temporary relationship with a kindred spirit, only to realize 'You can dream/But you can never go back the way you came.'"〔(Nelson, Paul.
