A few decks I've been kicking around: Modern: WUBRGHumans / GUInfect Legacy: LED Dredge / UW Stoneblade
Well, mechanically speaking, I believe Everflowing Chalice counts as a free spell here.
In that the cost to cast it is always 0.
You're paying for the multikicker, which is a tacked-on investment distinctly separate from the cost to cast.

Ah, but seriously: Not of This World.
Well, then you have to consider X costed permanents too, like Chalice of the Void (who is actually functional at 0), and Orochi Hatchery (which isn't really).
Granted, Chalice of the Void and even Engineered Explosives have their uses when set for X=0, but there's a bit of mechanical difference between cmc 0 + multikicker and cmc x / cmc xx.
Though EverChal with no kicks is as good as Orochi Hatchery for 0.
Pact cycle (Pact of Negation, Pact of the Titan)
Shoal cycle (Disrupting Shoal, Sickening Shoal)
Phyrexian spells (Gitaxian Probe, Gut Shot, Noxious Revival)
Free Mana (Simian Spirit Guide)
Other (Street Wraith)

oh yes can't forget our beloved Moxes:p
1. If you're talking about Seething Song, it's banned.
2. It's called red mana, not mountains. Mountains generate red mana.
3. Holy necro.
