logan01 Posted January 25, 2009 Report Share Posted January 25, 2009 (edited) I believe it's from the 70's and is rock & roll. Perhaps Led Zeppelin. Very commomly played song on FM radio. For rock, it's pretty mild. The only part crystal clear to me is as the music proceeds, it comes to an abrupt stop for a second, then goes into what I can only describe as an "European" siren. By that, I mean not like the old sirens which were a continuous wail and not like the new sirens. This siren is continuous, changing from high pitch to low pitch. High Low High Low High Low. I believe that at the end of the last "Low" a guitar trails off from that point and the song continues it's merry way. I've searched for siren songs 'til I'm blue in the face. Though as I write this I realize what a pathetically sad description I have provided, it's all I can muster at the moment. thanks, logan Edited January 26, 2009 by Guest cheers Brad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brad_M Posted January 26, 2009 Report Share Posted January 26, 2009 Sounds like it could be the song "Lunatic Fringe" from the Canadian band, "Red Rider." It's from 1981, though. Give it a listen and see if it could be the song you're looking for. Even if it isn't, it's still an excellent song to listen to. The high and low pitch sirens heard at the end of the song (around 3:48 into the song), sound like the sirens on the police cars in Switzerland.

Carl Posted January 26, 2009 Report Share Posted January 26, 2009 That's one of those songs that pops up on Classic Rock playlists, sticks around for a few months, then goes back to it's home to rest. Real sweet song, and yes, great for driving. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
