Playing more than one song at a time is possible (and as far as I
know not a bug, just a matter of being able to hit the keys fast
enough) because the effects of a song continue for a few seconds after
you stop singing it. So, starting and stopping and restarting songs fast
enough will allow you to have multiple song effects active all at the same
time. I think 3 songs at a time is what most people try to manage. The
best method I've seen to do this is by programming a hotkey that would
look something like this.

/pause 30;/sing 1
/pause 30;/sing 2
/pause 30;/sing 3

When you hit this hotkey, it would start song in spell slot 1, wait 3
seconds, start song in spell slot 2, wait 3 seconds, then start song in
spell slot 3. When you notice the effects of song 1 fading, you hit the
hot key again and it starts over.

I have a lvl 5 bard char which I have only played a little. If anyone
knows of better ways to twist songs I would like to hear them.
