Lightning Crashes takes it’s inspiration from car crash victim and high school friend of the band, Barbara Lewis. Barbara lost her life to an armed robber fleeing a crime scene.
The song clearly chronicles the circle of life. Her brother in-law explains: “Barb's life gave new life to many. The angel, the baby down the hall, (Barb’s) pale blue eyes. Our family’s close (to) the most genuine and caring man, who is still alive today, who has Barb's heart beating in his chest! Lightning Crashes literally lives on.”
Often dedicated to the Columbine High School massacre victims at concerts, Lightning Crashes is Live’s biggest hit to date.
