At first, I thought that this 2 hour stunk, but it has saved my party a few times.
Our party consisted of 2 Bards, 1 Summoner, 1 Paladin, 1 Warrior, and some other job. I was pulling in Crawlers Nest, flies, and we were in the secret room's hall. I walked out and began to cast sneak on myself when I saw a Water Elemental next to me. I run back and head to the secret room. The paladin pulls the elemental and everyone uses their two hour. The summoner nuked with Ramuh's Judgement Bolt; the Paladin used invincible when at 29 HP, the Warrior used his Mighty Strikes, the other Bard and I used Soul Voice and Paeon III and Ballad.
6HP/3 seconds
2MP/3 seconds
Plus the Summoner and Paladin had Auto Refresh so they got 3MP/3 seconds
Kept Barwatra up and casted Cure III when necessary. Needless to say we won all at the expense or our 2hour, it was so much fun. The Bard's 2 hour saved us a lot. Overall our 2 hour is great, not too too great at lower levels, but at higher levels it kicks ***. Trust me SOUL VOICE RULES!!!

This can be useful for getting back to Kazham from Yhoator Jungle. Soul Voice from the beginning, and Foe Lulliby all the gobs that are in front of you. I've done this twice so far, and its worked both times.

NOW THAT NEEDS TO BE OUR 2 HOUR!!!

I cant believe ppl dont like this 2 hour??
This 2 hour is one of the best in the game IMO.
I must admit, it needs a sharper eye to know when to actualy use this, but, sometimes its pretty dam obvious when things are about to get bad.
Check this....
"SV + double Mambo = Perfect Dodge
SV + double March = Hundred Fists
SV + double Minuet = Mighty Strikes"
(I pasted this from an Adv Brd Guide btw - http://ffxi.allakhazam.com/db/jobs.html?fjob=9;mid=1128282720175168153;num=35;page=1)
Using SV - You can have these effects on the WHOLE PTY for 4 minutes (by casting your songs again before SV runs out)- more if you have + instruments. Thats a lot longer than most 2 hours.
Personally I normally use SV + double Paeon, double ballad + Elegy to slow mob right down.
Using the ebony harp +1 is cool too as it gives you an extra 2 hp per tick.
Example... (at my current lvl of 63)
Paeon IV with Ebony Harp +1 &
Paeon III with Ebony Harp +1
x Soul Voice = 26 hp every 3 seconds to all in range!!! love it! ^^

anybody who says this is useless has obviously never seen it combined with hundred fists or mighty strikes. This one ability can make your DDs gods for the duration of their 2hr ability.
Correction: Soul Voice lasts 3 minutes. Used it four times in a Valkurm party last night and checked it every time on its cooldown.
I'm not sure Soul Voice is so hot for saving your party. Hitting it when you pull a link to lullaby the link and double-buff your party is a nice move, and will help a good bit, but I think you'll get the most out of your 2hr if you just use it at about chain 2 when you're looking to get a chain 5. Hit it, use Madrigal and Minuet, slaughter the first one for chain 3, halfway through your chain 4 mob run the songs again to last them through the last one. Checking your timer, put up Paeons and/or Ballads (two of one or one each) at about 1:57:30 (when you have 30 seconds left) so you're ready to go on your next chain very quickly.

All i can say is this
Hornetneedle (rare/ex dagger)
Soul Voice
Victory March + Advancing march
Haste (cast on you by somebody nice :P)
Enfire
Makes your delay = 0
Bard becomes a DD ^_^
on it bomb i was doing 30-35 damage per hit + the 10-11 added damage from enfire
I pulled in 210 damage before drk did a 150 hit :P
Sadly we can only be DD for aslong as soulvoice lasts and march's do ^_^ but still was fun.

your delay won't be 0 because delay caps off at 100
I agree with ElChat. If you know what your doing this 2 hour WILL save the day better than most.
this abillity = wtfpwntbbq, one of the best 2 hours in the game if you actually know how to use it. Keep in mind when it says every song... it means EVERY SONG. when in party disengage, sleep them and heal up everybody, by the time the thing wakes up, the mob will be looking at a fully healed party and thinking "wtf werent these guys F'ed a few seconds ago". you still have about a min left on the counter after youve healed up, so put some attack songs on your mellee and watch them rip through the damn thing.

Be warbed if you activate this ability it will cancel any songs that are currently in effect that have been sung but you, be ready to immidiately begin the songs you want amplified even if you are already singing them.

Doubles every song effect can be very nice when PT pulls an add, Or doing BCNM, using Lullby.
When in a pinch, cast March, and Madrigal making fighters finishs the battle faster with out missing. Cast ballad1+2 to regain 6mp per 3secs.

They really need to change up the Bard 2 hour. This sounds more like a job ability than a 2 hour, save the party type move.

well...
1. a 2hr is a job ability
2. What would you make the 2 hr to be?
3. this ability is useful in its ways
I agree that it should not be the 2hr, though ^^;

this lasts just a little longer than your songs will last - i used this, casted 2 buffs on the group, then after the buffs wore off i still had about 30 seconds left with this ability.. so even though its one of the mroe useless 2 hours.. at least you can get 2 sets of songs in(i'd say last about 2 minutes 30 seconds, but i know its longer than 1 minute)
