I've found that with high blue or higher mobs, there's a
chance of this song simply not affecting them. You see the
light effects, but there's no message of any type. I've had
this happen with cyclopses, Droon, giants, mammoths, griffons,
and a couple others (including one indoor mob). If I keep the
song going, eventually it either works or I get a resist
message, even though neither of us have moved. The higher
/con the mob, the greater the chance of this happening. I'm
not sure if this is a bug or a feature...
