I'm going to safely assume that has scared away everyone now and proceed to comment on things I've noted from the newest Zelda game.
First thing: Hidden Song - Zelda's Lullaby
Admittedly, I didn't find this so much as I stumbled across a video on You Tube way before I knew what Skyward Sword was. Here is a different video with the same information.
Oh, hello Zelda's Lullaby :o
I've heard a rumour that all the songs in Skyward Sword, if played backwards, resemble songs from former Zelda games but I'm not so sure on that. I will have to check that out and see if it's true or not.
UPDATE: Here's Fai's song backwards (And I realize that I put an extra letter in her name. More on that after)
While it's certainly an interesting song backwards, I don't know if I've ever heard it before. That being said, I've not played all the games in the Zelda series. I'll have to look to my expert for that and get back to you.
#2 - Final Boss and the Bug net
I really enjoyed the final battle's epicness. The lightning and overall scenery, plus Demise is a pretty awesome looking bad guy. Although I did find the fight to be a bit on the easy side... So on my second playthrough, I decided to have some fun. I took out all my items to see if they had some sort of effect on him. Guess what? Someone wants to know what the bug net is...
Obviously a thing of pure evil.
#3 - Field of Kittens
So after you get the clawshot you should be able to access an area by the Goddess statue that you weren't able to before. In the following video they use a cheat system to jump through the wall, but you can easily clawshot your way to the same spot.
Speaking of those kittens...
#4 - Remlit - Gremlin
You know the ones. Those demon cats. Cute by day, evil by night. Say, have you ever heard of a movie called Gremlins by any chance? They make it easier to see the similarities in Japanese than they do in the English version, but trust me. They totally took an idea from Gremlins with their Remlit's.
#5 - Sparkling Mushrooms
Okay, I don't know the exact name (I played the Japanese version, give me a break) however that's not the point. In Faron Woods, if you go to the mushroom patch by the Silent Realm Trial gate you should find a sparkly mushroom. Give it a good slash with your sword and swipe up the sparkles with your bottle.
This stuff is awesome. You can dump it on enemies and it'll daze them, allowing you to do a couple of strikes before they figure out what's going on, or you can dump it on some bugs to make them all sluggish and easier to catch. And if you dump it on a heart plant, it turns it into a fairy!
#6 - Goddess Harp
I know for a fact that if you begin to randomly play the harp in Skyloft or other areas, the harp will harmonize with the area's music. But what I have heard and have not yet tried is that you can play along in the credits by pressing the A button, making the credits less of a bore (You know if you find looking at what Zelda had been doing a bore or just watching the graphics while listening to some of the game music)
#7 - A Familiar Tune
When you fight your way to creepy snake guy and Zelda in the final minutes of the game, the red Bokoblin's play a slightly different tune than they usually do to call their friends over. It's a tune from one of the earlier Zelda games. Do you know which one?
#8 - Tingle Doll
I admit, I'm not very fond of Tingle. I feel kinda bad for him except for the annoying thing he does in SSBB. But inside Zelda's room you can find him in doll form on her desk/bookshelf.
The last two are, in my opinion, the most interesting of the bunch. And I also feel they require a bit more explaining, so I'm going to put them up in a separate post.
