I guess it shows that amount of being tone deaf is mostly about the talent you are born with. While practice can make it even better, I don't think I can ever reach 80 | ||

 Looking at the stats after the result page, it looks like the average is 73%, so I guess the thing about talented musicians is just to make people more relaxed about their score / influence guesses about their ability. As for people redoing - I'm sure I could get 100 if I "properly concentrated" since it tells you the answers afterwards. :p It's also interesting to see that only 23% of people got no. 33 right (I didn't). | ||

I always did know my natural pitch perception was quite poor, and my singing is bad too, so not really surprised how low I got. I think if the test was conducted using traditional orchestral instruments I would have scored higher. I guess people with better natural ability and/or more training can adjust to hearing the abstract electronic sounds. ps. I really hate to confirm the stereotype, but I was a violist... | ||

Maybe being tone deaf in the context of this test can hurt, but I doubt that it's the only factor that contributes to why your singing sounds worse to you then to an observer. It could affect your ability to be in tune. What I would expect is that someone scoring well on this test is that they would recognize easily if they are off in pitch when singing something or singing alone with something. However, this says nothing about their ability to correctly adjust pitch and get back to singing on key. That has a mechanical aspect. You can know you are out of tune but not have the coordination to be able to adjust and anticipate upcoming pitches correctly. It also says nothing about your technique/tone/resonance. You might be wonderfully in tune but be singing in a raspy, nasal tone. | ||

I think I missed a lot of them because I was only listening for the melody. | ||

I can't make any differences between " good " and " bad " earphones for example and I have shitty taste when it comes to music ( that doesn't mean I can't hear but still ). And I agree with all the " the long one are hard " , especially if they are the same ... | ||
