Song of Storms
This is learned by Adult Link from the windmill man in Ocarina of Time called Guru Guru. It can make it rain when the song is played, reveal secret grottoes, water bean sprouts to produce fairies, and can also empty the well in Kakariko Village. The song has some disadvantages, though: it happens to speed up windmills dramatically.
Though the song in Ocarina of Time poses a great paradox and confusion to fans (as it is Link as a child who supposedly teaches Guru-Guru, who then teaches it to Link as an adult), its origins are explained in Majora's Mask (or, at least, the origin of the song in Termina). The Song of Storms was a song composed by the Composer Brothers of the Ikana Canyon, specifically by Flat. When Link found Flat's crypt in the Ikana Graveyard, Flat taught it to him; it represented his sadness of losing Sharp, the other Composer Brother, and his anger for Sharp's betrayal. By playing the song, Link managed to cure Sharp. It also revived the Ikana River (a combination of getting rid of Sharp and refilling the well).
In Oracle of Seasons, the Song of Storms is the background music for the area around the windmill, east of the village in the Eastern Suburbs.
The Song of Storms also makes an appearance in Super Smash Bros. Brawl as a hidden song for the Pirate Ship stage. It is collaberated with Ganondorf's theme and the Serenade of Water.

Paradox
A time paradox is created in Ocarina of Time. According to Guru Guru, Link played the Song of Storms as a child to speed up the windmill, yet Link is taught the song by Guru Guru. Because of this, it is not clear exactly how Link originally learned the song, to have played it to Guru Guru in the first place.
