The song Bluff is a 125 m high and rocky hill on the Ingrid Christensen coast of the East Antarctic Princess Elisabeth Land . It rises 2.5 km north of Club Lake in the north-central part of the Breidnes Peninsula in the Vestfold Mountains . Its southern flank is almost perpendicular.
Norwegian cartographers mapped it based on aerial photographs of the Lars Christensen expedition in 1936/37 . The Antarctic Names Committee of Australia named him after Nils Tønder Lied (1920–1993), a weather observer at Davis Station in 1957.
