Wet Sand is a song by the Red Hot Chili Peppers from their 2006 album, Stadium Arcadium. It is the thirteenth song on the Jupiter disc. According to a sticker on the vinyl version of Stadium Arcadium, Wet Sand will be one of the singles released from the album. This is yet to be confirmed by the band.
The song starts like a melody with standard rhythm but by the end the momentum increases anthemically. The guitar riff at the beginning also resembles the guitar riff used by Led Zeppelin in their song Over the Hills and Far Away. The solo at the end of the song is considered to be an example of Frusciante's best work on the album. In fact, the solo has been dubbed the "best guitar solo of all time" by rock critic Andrew Forbes.[citation needed]
