Die Eidgenossen und Hardrock Urgesteine GOTTHARD hauen mit `Thunder & Lightning´ samt Video die nächste begeisternde Singleauskopplung aus ihrem kommenden Album raus. Die zugehörige “Stereo Crush“ Tour mit Y&T Ende Mai über die Bühne. Der gleichnamige Tonträger erscheint am 21. März. Neue Musik gab es bereits in Form des ersten Tracks `Boom Boom´ zu hören.
Fronter Nic Maeder erklärt:
„Freddy came to my house with the musical idea for this song. We started there and came up with the structure and the vocal melodies together and recorded the demo there. I then spent quite some time figuring out lyrics. To me the sound of the riff in the chorus sounded electric somehow and I thought of words like “lighting”, “thunder” etc… And then thought of the concept of how lighting never strikes twice but in this case does, using this as a metaphor for love. Also in French (which I’m fluent in) you can say that “love at first sight” is like getting hit by a bolt of lighting.“

Lyrics:
The way that I feel now
Electrical flow
And all that I need, somehow
Is to let myself go
Sitting on the night train
Looking at the flashing lights
They say it never strikes in the same place
But it got us both tonight
Thunder and Lightning
We’re on the right side of wrong
And I know that you know that I know
But we don’t care
Thunder and Lightning
We’re on the right side of wrong
And I know that you know that I know
But we don’t care
We don’t care… We don’t care
We can’t look away now
But nobody knows
I should have got off, somehow
Let’s see where it goes
Still, we’re on the night train
And all around us flashing lights
They say it never strikes in the same place
But it got us both tonight
Thunder and Lightning
We’re on the right side of wrong
And I know that you know that I know
But we don’t care
Thunder and Lightning
We’re on the right side of wrong
And I know that you know that I know
But we don’t care
We don’t care… We don’t care
We don’t care… We don’t care
We don’t care… We don’t care
Thunder and Lightning
We’re on the right side of wrong
And I know that you know that I know
But we don’t care
Thunder and Lightning
We’re on the right side of wrong
And I know that you know that I know
But we don’t care
We don’t care… We don’t care
