Purely coincidence.

I was fighting the SK/Shaman duo in Rathe Mnts the other night.

Clinging Darkness (dot + snare)
Targ-something Insects (drowsy)
Root (shaman)
Infectous Cloud (shaman disease)
Heat Blood (dot)

I purposely had ADM memmorized to clear this garbage, it did
nothing but give the static pulse message and put an extra icon
on my screen. With lute in hand, I tried to start the song then
attack, and blamo I was Clinging Darkness and Drowsy immediately.

I even tested more things too the other night,
This song has absolutely zero effects when:

o played before battle to be pro-active (preventative).
o played during battle to cancel said effects.
o played after battle for an extended period of time.
o played while selecting the enemy who cast on me.
o played while selecting no target.
o played while selecting me as the target.
o played while selecting a group member as target.

Now, I did get a few times where I noticed I was under
a bad spell, and then tried to click the ADM and by the
time I fumbled the lute into my hands - it disappeared
at close to the same time. Most ill effects are very short
lived. But this song is definitely broken, and I tested
it for the entire duration of my camping those guards for
3 or 4 hours under a variety of circumstances.
