The Inverted Song of Time is a song in The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask played on the Ocarina of Time. Like the Song of Double Time, it is neither directly taught to Link nor stored in the Songs menu on the Quest Status pane. It can, however, be found in the game by speaking to one of the Scarecrows in Clock Town after dancing with one of them. It is a variation on the Song of Time, with all its notes played in reverse order.

Learning the Song

As is already mentioned, you don't actually need to learn this song to play it. As soon as you have retrieved the Ocarina of Time from the Skull Kid and have learnt the Song of Time, you can play this song, and the Inverted Song of Time as well. But if you weren't looking on this Wiki, you would be told about it from the Scarecow, after you dance with him.

Playing the Song

This song is easy to remember, as long as you remember the Song of Time. Simply play it backwards on your Ocarina using the C-Buttons. Here are the notes: ↓ A → ↓ A →.

Function

When played, the song slows down the rate at which time flows, to roughly half the standard rate. This effect only lasts during the cycle in which Link plays the song. Playing the song again allows Link to return the flow of time to normal.
