OK I know it is not news, but I thought the news section regulars might like the test.

[woofgang]

no I'm not but wow that's a boring test.....

36/36, so not tone deaf. Sadly can't sing, so tone mute!

36 out of 36...

I scored 100%, and I'm quite hopelessly unmusical - I can't sing unaccompanied without drifting several tones up or down. A competent singer told me that what I lacked was 'pitch memory'. This so-called test is only testing pitch memory across two consecutive notes! Now, if it was testing across five or six notes, with different notes in between - "Was the last note higher than the first note, or lower, or the same?" - then I'd expect to get a really low score.

not tone deaf

the formation of the AB Choir can be only days away. Famed for its ability to sing two notes in a row.

Aside from that, I suspect bert's right.

[emmie]

i can't sing however, i would have loved to, but i have to leave it to the experts

[emmie]

many of those sounds are used in ear tests, i have had them done at ENT for hearing problems - the sounds get progressively weaker, until they are almost inaudible,

Huge differences in tones, not difficult, perhaps the notes should be closer.

[ChillDoubt]

100%.

[Gromit]

I fear bert is right, so he gets best answer.

I too got 100% and get bottled at kareoke.

[ummmm]

100% for me as well

[zoe76]

32/36 88%

[jeffa]

100%

[Canary42]

I got 100% yet clear the room when I try to sing.

It seems like a con to harvest e-mail addresses - if you sign up of course (which I have - it will be interesting to see what develops as a result)
