    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.

    I love this song.

    Never thought it was about a mother dying during child birth.

    BTW, I really like your taste in music.

    It was Pink Floyd’s “Mother” that brought me to this site.
