some people at NeoGAF have encountered a game breaking bug in SS.
here's a quote from the thread other there:

Quote
It's been discussed once on our forums when someone encountered the bug, but now it seems to spread pretty much everywhere. There is a game breaking bug in Skyward Sword that causes the game to not trigger an event during the Song of the Hero quest, which prevents you from finishing the game and forces you to start anew.

The bug can occur with either the Faron or Eldin part of the quests. If you do the Thunder Dragon first, there is a chance the events at the Sealed Grounds and Eldin Volcano won't trigger at all.

It's unclear why the issue occurs, and the only knows prerequisite is that you do the Thunder Dragon at Lanayru first.

It might not be a bug that occurs 100% of the time. But it's pretty late in the game (almost at the end) and it sucks to have to restart a new game after 25-30 hours. I tried to reproduced the bug myself using a backup save file but it didn't occurred.

If you encountered the bug and have any info, please share them.

so, basically, nintendo was so focused on stopping Sequece Breaks that they let a nasty bug that actually affects casual players past the final testing phase and now people are going to shit bricks in the last segments of the game until the cause of the glitch is found.

it would be good if someone here encountered the glitch and found a way to solve it. SBing solved the cannon glitch in TP after all.

I found this yesterday and we've discussed it over IRC a little.

To me it seems like it's a very real possibility due to the fact that the game logic gets a bit complex at that point in the game. Basically, you can pick which part of the song you want to tackle but once you start a segment, you're blocked off from starting the other segments until you complete it.

I've already asked a guy for a stuck save, hoping to hear back from him soon.

I came up with the idea it has something to do with the timeshift stone. Msot of us who didn't experience the problem either didn't do lanayru first or 2nd (i have done it first twice but with no issue) and probably just left after reviving him. I thought that, if you do him first, the 'objective'/requirement of that song piece is reviving lanayru. So i believe it's possible that, if you revive him and get the piece of the song, but then for some reason, hit the timeshift stone in to the present (where lanayru no longer exists) it prevents Eldin/Faron scenes from beginning.

people who complete lanayru last will not experience this issue due to the last trigger of this portion being Impa recognising the master sword.

However, if the objective of Lanayru's piece is indeed 'revive him' then the game may not recognise the piece as complete if you leave while he is dead.

^ That seems like something that would've affected far more people. Plus it seems like it'd have such a simple fix (go hit the timeshift stone). It's probably something else... not a bad theory though.

You are probably right, but you never know. How many people completed Lanayru first or second, and how many people also hit the timeshift stone after reviving him? It just doesn't seem like something anybody would do, there is no purpose in hitting it again.

the cause of the glitch has been found

it was the goron that is just before lanayru gorge. don't talk to golo and you should be safe in a playthough or a speedrun.
