The Song of Storms is a song featured in Ocarina of Time and Majora's Mask that conjures up storms.
It is obtained by learning it as an adult in Ocarina of Time (which ultimately leads to the infamous Song of Storms paradox), and from Flat in Ikana Graveyard in Majora's Mask.
Ocarina of Time
The Song of Storms is learned from the Phonogram Man in Kakariko Village as an adult. He claims a young boy played the song and it messed up the Windmill. This is odd, as it is clearly referring to Link, who had yet to return to the past to complete the paradox. Playing it as a child causes the Windmill to spin much faster from the force of the summoned storm's wind; draining the well in Kakariko and giving Link access to the Bottom of the Well to obtain the Lens of Truth. It can also be used to reveal some Secret Grottos.
Just outside the Spirit Temple, at the Desert Colossus, the song can be used to conjure rain to fill a dried-up oasis, which becomes a Fairy Fountain full of small fairies. Playing the Song of Storms at a Gossip Stone, and at certain defined spots, will summon a Big Fairy.
Song of Storms can be played for the Fabulous Five Froggish Tenors in Zora's River to get a Piece of Heart.
Majora's Mask
The Song of Storms is learned Beneath the Graveyard, on the Night of the First Day, after listening to Flat's eulogy. It is written on his grave, much like the Sun's Song was in Ocarina of Time. It breaks the curse of his brother, Sharp, in Ikana Canyon; causing the river to flow through Ikana Canyon, which in turn activates the Music Box House. The song is also used to get rid of the Blue Bubbles' jinx.
Otherwise, the song can be used to grow Magic Beans into fully grown plants that can be ridden by Link, rather than needing bottles of Spring Water. As in Ocarina of Time, it can be used to reveal Secret Grottos; and to summon Big Fairies at Gossip Stones.
