Here is a use for Lullaby that only desperate circumstances suggested to me.

My 16 bard was fighting with a 15 druid in East Karana, where it opens up
from the Gorge zone entrance. I was pulling and tanking. She was blasting
and healing. :) (I did warn her if she got something stuck on her I couldn't
taunt it off. We seemed to do a good job of balancing damage though so that
never really became a problem.)

I had, on my first panel,
1 Anthem 2 Chords
3 Purifying 4 Bellow
5 Heal 6 Assist

On the second panel
1 Selo's 2 Heal
3 Jig 4 Bellow
5 Inc social 6 Shurikens (more damage/range than throwing daggers)

I had Lullaby memmed in the eight song slot, but not in any of
my hot key panels.

Anyways, We had a lion patriarch come up and chew on our backsides
while we were taking out a gorge hound. Or rather, chew on MY backside.
I took the gorge hound out at 2 bubbles and a bit of health. Turned
to engage the lion, praying my groupmate was sending a heal my way,
when I saw the yellow text: Krilled went Linkdead.

Um. I threw up Selo's and headed for zone. :) But the lion kept hitting
me from behind and stunning me. My life was down to 1 bubble -- FAR into
the "slow you down even running fast" category.

I decided to try the song that doesn't work. Click on Lullaby. A tick later
"a lion patriarch's head nods" Great! Click on Selo's, run for zone. It
allowed
me to get far enough ahead the lion did not catch up again until I was one
step
from zone. And then I just went ahead and stepped into the zone.
