We'll just have to agree to disagree. Foreshadowing is better than "out-of-nowhere" to most people because it has rewatch value. I'll replace song with macguffin.

Emma decided to look for some random macguffin in starting this episode, which also defeated the villain in the same episode. I wish they introduced it earlier, because I fear it won't ever be addressed again.

It would be like if Pan was defeated randomly by Pandora's box in 3x09 and then season 3B started, etc. It would be unsatisfying. Cora was defeated by a candle that was at least introduced an episode earlier. Hook and Cora used the bean which was introcuded 3 episodes earlier, etc.
