How to Get and Use the Song of Storms in The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time

The Song of Storms is one of the most memorable melodies in The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time remake. You can learn it shortly after becoming adult Link, and it is essential for reaching the Bottom of the Well dungeon. The song also reveals hidden passages containing rupees and other useful items.

How to Unlock the Song of Storms

As adult Link, enter the windmill in Kakariko Village. Inside, you’ll find the Music Man playing the Song of Storms and complaining about an ocarina player.

Take out your ocarina in front of him by pressing left on the D-pad. Although this makes him even angrier, he’ll teach you the melody.

Once you know the song, return to the windmill as child Link and play it for the Music Man. This drains the village well, giving you access to the Bottom of the Well dungeon.

The encounter also creates a time-travel paradox: adult Link learns the song from the Music Man, but child Link is the one who plays it for him in the first place.

Where to Use the Song of Storms

Beyond opening the Bottom of the Well, the Song of Storms can uncover hidden holes throughout Hyrule. Look for a small, windmill-shaped plant inside a circle on the ground, then play the song nearby.

To try it out, look for one in Hyrule Field just outside Kakariko Village. It’s on your right as you leave the village.

The Ocarina of Time remake includes some differences from the original game. As you explore, you may also want help with its dungeons, finding Richard the dog and rounding up Cuccos.

If you’re aiming for full completion, keep an eye out for every Piece of Heart and Gold Skulltula token, as well as every spot where you can plant a Magic Bean.
