Jamel bro, here is the real meaning to the song: The band dedicated the song to a high school friend, Barbara Lewis, who was killed by a drunk driver in 1993. Ed Kowalczyk the singer 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.

Without even knowing the back story I could tell the lyrics where bouncing back and forth from a baby being born and an old woman dying. I also assumed it was maybe hinted at some level of reincarnation. Like for every life being lost there is another being born. Not entirely backed up by statistics as the population has been growing over all, but still an interesting idea.

I think "White Discussion", one that wasn't even a single from Throwing Copper due to it's apocalyptic nature, is the most overlooked, but utterly epic song of it's era. If you ever want to just hear a band leave it all on the stage, or the studio floor I guess, that is the song in my book. It cannot be listened to at anything short of apocalyptic volume levels if you want to appreciate it though.

This song came out the year my son was born. It haunted me up to the moment of his birth, both mother and son in full health. At that same time, my own mother was in the hospital in another wing battling cancer. She lost that battle six days later. This was September, while doctors earlier in the year said she wouldn't last the summer. She lapsed into a coma that day, waking with a vision of a baby boy with a head full of brown hair. My son. That day was spent moving back and forth between the maternity ward and the cancer ward. A living version of what this video represents. The song has kept a steady place in my heart. I'm glad you saw this, I'm glad I watched. Keep up the great work.

How interesting that you too were haunted by this song. This song was all over the radio when I was pregnant...my son was born in 1995. It also haunted me up to the day he was born. By pure fluke, childbirth proved to be very difficult for both of us and we both almost didn't make it. Thankfully we both survived, due to modern medicine. It was once commonplace for the mother or baby to die in childbirth; childbirth is an intense, intense experience. As flawed as it still is, I deeply deeply appreciate our modern medical system. I can still feel the deep, frightening, yet beautiful ache of that time when I listen to this song. On this day, International Women's Day, I want to appreciate all the mothers (and all women) young and old who give so much of themselves in so many ways and on so many levels.

I had heard this band before, loved their rockin' radio hits. The day my mom passed away, I heard this song for the first time while I was driving. I was immediately stricken with grief and burst into tears, had to pull off the road and ball my eyes out. I was near my favorite record store (we still had those back then!), so I pulled in and bought a copy of this CD, Throwing Copper. I played it endlessly in my car for at least a month, and every time this song came on, I burst into tears. It was the first step at healing myself from the grief of losing my mom. Just now was the first time I've listened to it in years, and my face is covered with tears. I'm a mess. I LOVE YOU, MOM. I MISS YOU SO MUCH!!

My cousin had this experience, first she had 3 miscarriages, then the 4th was stillborn, he had a heartbeat right into labor, but was born without a life. She was devastated, but decided to give it one more try. She had a boy, health and strong. Followed by 2 more, just as strong. I just recently seen her husband, I asked how the kids were doing. He gestured tall, then pointed in front of him. There stood his son DJ, this kid was 6'4'', taller than me or his father. I was stunned to say less. The stillbirth is a very difficult thing. We also have family friends who can't have children, a tough situation as well. But they have many nieces and nephews, plus all of us knew them as aunt Sandy and uncle Doug, as far as we were concerned they were family, and respected them as much. She was as good as a real mother, and he was a strong male role model with a great sense of humor. The almighty doesn't always bless the good people with children.

In a 2004 interview included on the DVD for Awake: The Best Of Live, Kowalczyk said, “To this day I have no idea where that song came from - and I love that.” Lyrically, ‘Lightning Crashes’ is a meditation on the cycle of life, death and reincarnation. Kowalczyk’s vision of the song was a hospital emergency room where people died and babies were born, a never-ending transference of life energy: “Lightning crashes an old mother dies/Her intentions fall to the floor/The angel closes her eyes/The confusion that was hers/Belongs now to the baby down the hall.” ‘Lightning Crashes’ was recorded and produced with Talking Heads’ Jerry Harrison as part of the sessions for Live’s sophomore effort, Throwing Copper, at the famed Pachyderm Studio in Minnesota, during the summer of 1993. Around this time, Barbara Lewis, a longtime friend of the band, was killed by a drunk driver while fleeing from the police after a robbery in York. The band dedicated the song to Lewis, who was only 19 when she died. “It was something that we hoped would honour the memory of a girl we grew up with and help her family cope with the sorrow - which it seems to have accomplished - keeping with the theme of the song,” Kowalcyzk said, in a 1995 interview in Spin magazine. Lewis was also a registered organ donor; when she died she helped save the lives of many people, including a ten-month old baby who received her liver.

Jamel listen to it after realizing that the baby doesn't die. An old mother dies while a new baby is born down the hall. It's a reverence for a generation escorted back to heaven by an angel. While expressing the sorrow that is left in the wake of this loss the song has us reflect upon the new life that has entered down the hall. The real power of the song is the chorus line, "oh now feel it coming' back again , like a rolling' thunder chasing the wind". I have always felt that this was expressing the power that each succeeding generation can build upon its fore-bearers. As the wind ushers the storm. Families should always be held with great sacredness. Powerful song.

My Brother Jamel, when u mentioned how many people have gone through losing a wife/daughter it immediately brought to mind what the great Neil Peart from Rush went through 20 years ago. In 1998 his 23 year old daughter was killed in an automobile accident on her way to college, then within the next year his wife was diagnosed with terminal cancer and she passed months after. Those events are what put Neil in a deep pit and he locked up his lakeside house and went on a 17 month bike tour on his BMW to try and find a reason to keep living. He subsequently wrote a book called "Ghost Rider" from all his journal entries and experiences on that 17 month tour. That is the reason RUSH took 5 years off as a band from like 2000-2005 until Neil felt like playing again. I thought you would be interested in knowing this. Thanks for all you do man!!

The song is a great introduction to Live, and to my man EddieK's lyrics. This one is about the cycle of birth and death; an old mother will be dying somewhere else well and new life is being born at the same time. Almost everything he's ever written is about something spiritual, which is why he's my favorite lyricist of all time. People act like their only album is Throwing Copper, they have seven studio albums just under that name, eight if you count the album they made before they were under that name, and he has three solo albums. Absolutely incredible, every single ounce of every one of them. I should probably stop gushing, but there is absolutely nothing that EddieK has written that isn't amazing. Lots more Live where that came from.

The lyrics are a metaphor for the circle of life. As a baby is being born new to the world, down the hall another mother has passed on. It contrasts the two lives, one starting and one ending and the meaning behind both. Very powerful and beautiful song.

As a NICU nurse I have seen this song play out so many times. It tears at your soul. You grieve with the family and support them as much as possible. Then you go home and ask God to heal their hearts and help you to be strong enough to endure such tragedy again 😔 I have never heard this song before. Thanks to whomever requested it 🙏

I watch a fair amount of reaction videos. Your comments after this one took you from one of my favorites to my favorite. You get it. Lots of people don't. Parenthood isn't easy, at any stage. I have three children, three healthy, wonderful children. I lost two in between child 1 and 2. I also lost a sibling before my youngest brother was born. Pink Floyd's Wish You Were Here has become my song for those losses. I've wailed uncontrollably to that song and whenever I feel the weight of those losses, I put that song on and just let the emotion out and it helps, it really does. Its crazy, I remember seeing someone carrying this CD back when it was released. I always liked some of the songs that I'd heard, but in the past 5 years or so, whenever i have a major Amazon purchase, I find a used copy of a classic album used with free shipping and grab it and just live in that album for a while. Throwing Copper is very very solid throughout, just a great album. And I remember when I figured out what this song was about and how much more it meant to me ever listen after.

Man these reaction channels be having me in my feelings. This music takes me back to being a kid and youthful. So many things I'd do differently if I could go back in time, but things are what they are. There's no coincidences or mistakes. I'm where I'm supposed be, so I'll just reminisce when I watch these types of channels...on how good rock was and how good hip hop and R&B was from the 90's. The lyrics were deeper and more thought provoking in all genres, and artist actually sang and you could understand all the words they were saying...even in rap. I think we've all ( I'm 37, but those about 33 and up) have become our parents with the "back in the day" "man they don't make music like this anymore". Hahaha 80's, 90's good times.

Enjoyed this band and saw them at 9:30 Club in D.C in the mid 90s. This song played so much on the radio. Little did I know that in May 2000 my wife would have a very difficult and problematic delivery of our first daughter. Problems with the placenta. Our story is a happy one but even in our modern medical miracle age there are unexpected and tragic things that can happen. What caused LIVE to make such a song, maybe personal experience (I hope not) but THEY did capture and related the emotions. From the greatest possible JOY to dread and near HORROR in minutes. Thank GOD We had Angles with us that Day!

And I’ve had two sons and was blessed to have them healthy but my mother was pregnant with my older sisters for 8 months then she quit kicking. And my mother still had full blown labor knowing her baby was dead. She never did get over losing her.

So this time last year, my aunt’s chemo had stopped working. We were devastated and worried about what was to come. I was very depressed but I’d play this song on repeat some days and it’s the only thing that got me through, especially the guitar intro. These are songs I heard as a child but fully understand the meaning of as an adult.

I cannot hear this song -- especially with the video -- without being wracked with tears. "a new mother cries" -- tears of joy; a baby is born; they both survive "an old mother dies" -- another, older mother passes It's what you said -- as one soul arrives in this world, one leaves. It's about the balance of life and death, juxtaposing the two concurrent events. Absolutely one of the most powerful songs I know, and justification for the medium of music video.
