how about the Aiel, arms linked and singing, who were killed one by one by one crazy male channeler? The last one he left alive after killing thousands, who sang for hours, trying to remind the crazy male Aes Sedai of who and what he used to be? Were he/they singing the Seed Song? I seriously doubt it. Rather one of many "Songs" the Aiel and others-Aiel, Ogier, Nym and Aes Sedai- sang.
The so-called Song of the Tinkers is so obviously a metaphor for everything they have lost(including their own true history) that it makes me crazy that people don't get it. Remember they have no Jenn Aiel and secret city of Rhuidan to keep their true history alive. They don't even know why the clans hate them! Yet you would believe their vague legends of one special song are true?
Not likely.

The Song--how it worked and why it was lost--OGIERS ARE NOT ARTIFICIAL

There is a song, and maybe Rand will return it to them.

They DID fail the Aes Sedai; at least in their own eyes.

The song was "Hey Soul Sister" by Train. It was lost when the last ter'angreal Ipod broke.

If it weren't a Seed Song, why're the Nym needed? if not needed why did they forget how to sing?

The Voice is a talent like travelling for Aes Sedai. The capitalized Sing is for Aiel.
