Songs is not something that must be always on. Good healers do not need mana songs except for a few encounters.
I see most healers wasting their mana.

You cannot judge a class at low level. BRD is weak and boring till lvl 45+ and it really shines at 48. There is no fixed rotation since you rely on proc.
