Question
I heard this song with a unusual guitar solo on the radio and it has a guitar that sounds strange at certain times and the pitch goes up and down and near the end the singer says we are the dream any help will be appreciated its been bugging me for  days now

Answer
  I waited a day to answer this so I could ponder it.  Nothing is coming to mind.  Perhaps if you could give me more info,  anything,  things like is it a fast or slow beat, is there another song that has a similar drum beat,  does the singer sing high or low, does he have a gruff or a soft voice,   what other instruments are in the song,  tamborines,  keyboards....    background vocals?   Anything you can think of might jog my memory.   Also, if you happen to know what time period during the rock era,  50s,  60s, 70s.

 If you can give me more info it might just jog my memory.

I can answer general questions about rock era bands, record labels they were on, and names of songs. Often I can tell the name of the record company that released a song, as well as the name of the song, and the year of release based on some of the lyrics. I grew up during the rock era and I am a musician myself, and always read the album and 45 info for production credits as well as lineups. One of the chat rooms I go to is quite amused at my ability to name a song along with it`s year of release and record label. I was also a record collector for years.
