Bardsong (Final Fantasy IV)

Bardsong , also known as Sing, is Edward's ability that takes no Charge Time. In the 2D versions, Edward must equip a harp. This is no longer necessary in the 3D versions as everyone can access the Bardsong Augment.
In the game's data of the Super Nintendo version, the group of weapons ranging from 44 to 4C enables the Bardsong command. These include the two original harps: the Dream Harp and the Lamia Harp, but also included are the two-handed Ragnarok, the Poison Axe, the Rune Axe, the Mythril Hammer, the Gaia Hammer, the Wooden Hammer, and the Avenger, even if Edward cannot equip any of these weapons. More harps might have been planned and later changed into the other weapons during development.
In the 2D versions, there is a 1/4 chance of inflicting Sleep, Confuse, Silence, or nothing. When used while a Toad, it will always use Toadsong. In the GBA and PSP releases, the Harmony Ring changes Sing to Chant, which casts Protect and Shell on the party.
In the 3D versions, Edward can pick and choose the effect of his song, and he learns more songs as he levels up. Other party members can also access Bardsongs if they have the Bardsong Augment equipped. Songs that buff the party also make the bard unable to perform any other commands until the song's effect ends or they get hit.
