Because we only get one song per level (unlike spellcasters
who usually get 10+ spells every 4 or 5 levels), nearly all
our songs become better as you increase in level. You will
use Chant early on, discard it around L10 (Anthem is better
for a party), then resurrect it in your 40s(?) when you get
Celerity.

You may occasionally resurrect it in your middle levels for
the strength boost. I twisted Chant and the Warsong with
Accelerando when I had to head back to town once almost 80 lbs
overweight. Chant increased by str by 18 points, as did the
Warsong. Those two picked up my running speed by quite a bit.

I suppose you could also use it while soloing (Athem does not
stack with Chant), twisted with Warsong... Hmm... I wonder
why I never thought of that combo before...
