Pride of lions- "Lion heart"

The new work of Jim Peterik and Toby Hitchcock is full of what I didn’t expect from an AOR band, contemporary lyrics and a political approach to today’s problem. The “Lion heart” is a song worth listening to the whole album, only because of it. But let's be fair. The POL have never really let us down and don’t do it and this time. Pomp rock, great hooks, strong melodies and the divine voice of the mature Hitchcock give us a great example on how someone can be pompous, FM friendly and never get cheesy. A great work form the US showing to Scandinavians that US FM rock won’t give up its crown of melodic rock so easily.
