From the recording Bring it back to life
Acclaimed singer-songwriter Ben Reel returns with the powerful new single “Bring It Back to Life”, the second release from his highly anticipated 12th studio album, Spirit’s Not Broken.
Infused with a vibrant Beatles-esque groove and echoes of Billy Preston, brought to life by none other than John McCullough—Van Morrison’s Hammond organ and piano maestro—whose soulful keys infuse the song with vintage warmth and gospel flair.
With a sonic nod to The Beatles inspired by Peter Jackson’s Get Back documentary—a raw, behind-the-scenes glimpse into musical genius that sparked Reel’s creative fire.
Written in the aftermath of the COVID-19 pandemic, “Bring It Back to Life” delivers a timely message of hope and perseverance. With global tensions, health crises, and deepening divisions shaping today’s world, Reel’s lyrics offer a motivational call to rise above adversity. The song encourages listeners to believe in themselves, stand firm in their convictions, and keep moving forward—even when the path ahead feels uncertain.
“Bring It Back to Life” is more than a song—it’s a rallying cry for faith, resilience, and the enduring power of the human spirit.
Lyrics
Bring it back to Life
Come on let’s bring it back to life
One kiss from u will make it all alright
Come on let’s bring it back to life
We'll get through this somehow
These lonely nights
Use all the tricks and tools that we can use
Turn it on, turn it up, light up the fuse
The stupid man doesn’t understand , Slight of hand
Heads I’ll win, tails he’ll loose
Come on let’s bring it back to life
We’ve been turned
Upside down and inside out
Come on let’s bring it back to life
Rise from the dead
Live without any doubt
Pick yourself up, off the ground
Dust yourself down, take a look around
Your still in the fight.
Who dares wins and mortal sins
Love and lust from dust to dust
That’s part of life
Come on let’s bring it back to life
From the flames we will rise
And take flight
Come on let’s bring it back to life
Breathe in the air and let in the light.
You’ve been fooled
cocooned in a dark room
It’s time to shed your skin butterfly
Flap your wings you pretty thing
Don’t be afraid
Come on fly away with me, Come on fly
And the sun it is a rising
See the love shining in your eyes
Lets make it better than it ever was before
Before the deluge arrived
Let’s bring it back to life
