No wonder then that when guitarist George Lynch and bassist Jeff Pilson get together, not only do the creative sparks fly but the memories come rushing back as well. Following up on the duo\u2019s most recent trip down memory lane, a full-length a collection of fresh and invigorating versions of hits from yesteryear, 2020\u2019s&nbsp;<em>Heavy Hitters<\/em>, Lynch and Pilson are releasing a brand new single today, an original song co-written by both artists that reflects back on all the twists and turns that life can bring.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cIt\u2019s A Wonderful Life\u201d is simply a gorgeous power ballad that brings out the best in both Lynch and Pilson. Musically, the song has echoes of&nbsp;<em>Tooth And Nail<\/em>\u2019s smash hit single \u201cAlone Again,\u201d with a beautiful, chiming acoustic guitar intro that gives way to epic, fist-pumping riffs. But lyrically the song couldn\u2019t be more different \u2013 instead of regret and sorrow, \u201cIt\u2019s A Wonderful Life\u201d boasts a surprisingly optimistic and hopeful outlook on a life\u2019s journey despite the bouts of doubt and indecision. Since the song borrows its title and refrain from the popular 1946 Frank Capra Christmas classic, it seems only fitting that the single is being released just as this year\u2019s holiday season is getting into full swing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Stream\/download the single:<\/strong><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/orcd.co\/lynch_pilson_its_a_wonderful_life\">https:\/\/orcd.co\/lynch_pilson_its_a_wonderful_life<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Lynch shares his excitement about the new song, saying \u201cJeff and I have been woodshedding and writing songs together for 40 years and we\u2019ve never lost that enthusiasm and passion that we shared since day one.\u201d Pilson likewise proclaims, \u201cWe just HAD to write our own Christmas track.
