I'm not saying that these aren't useful for inturrupting spells. Its just
been my experience that it doesn't make their head actually nod, or their
eyes glaze over. They get hit with the spell, and are still able to carry
out their regular business whereas a MOB will sleep for a few pulses. I
could be mistaken, I've only tried each of these once, so I'll give it
another shot in the next few days to verify.

Not sure what you guys are missing, but Pixie Strike works *quite* well for
me against players - just like against NPCs, time it right, and the player
ends
up stunned and interrupted in their cast. Lullaby has a lesser effect, but
also

works. In fact, the only song that doesn't really seem to do anything to
players is Kelin's Lament, other than giving them the "You feel a sense of
loss" message. :)
