Got a 5, but I’m not a professional musician. But it shows if you observe and learn from listening to good music in general you can pass this test easily
same
its genetics bro, nothing to do with listening to good music lol
Yeah, got them all. Probably why I'm such a good singer. Can't play an instrument for shit though.
@@chiva6760 Your statement is not wrong but also not correct. You indeed can train your ear for this. Maybe you won't have the best ears in the world but he is right that concious listening (to music) can help you train your musical ear. :)
@@ArdropMusic I agree, you can train it to some extent. But it has to be done actively. You can't just listen to good music and expect that you have perfect pitch al of a sudden.
Whoop, got a 5!! Those 15+ years of piano lessons did pay off after all
me too
Woah, 15?? You must probably be so good then
I got question 5 correct because of a song I used to always listen to that used a major chord
The people who got all 5 but never had a music lesson:
MOM I'm a genius 👁👄👁
@@r.h3907 real
Hah, the only one i got wrong was the C and B note one. Weird I could pick out the one that was a few hz off right away but not two completely different notes.
Same
Same, I think it's because I have nothing to reference it to. Maybe we would get it right if we were musicians though.
this is strange, we tot it would be easier than the one with the hz. we will do our research !
@@playbyearsingapore im almost certain it has to do with a combination of things. The main one being i cant pick out a note if i hear it on its own without reference, and the lesser being that the instrument change is kind of jarring and makes it harder for me to discern. I think the latter amplifies the former, which is why i stumbled on this one (I don't think I would have if it was the same instrument in each). Maybe if i spent a while going through the c major scale and memorizing the tones like any other person who has taken lessons would i wouldnt have had such a hard time. I basically just dabble in music. Stumble my way through it until i find sounds that are pleasing to my ear. Thats also probably the major reason i can pick out the one thats a few cents off on-key. I'm always listening for tones and not the keys themselves, and I've grown accustomed to figuring out what isn't meshing well amongst the layers of tracks playing at the same time.
@@playbyearsingapore same here, it was harder than hz imo
Got a 4! Only trouble I had was question 4, mainly because I was stuck between number 2 and 4 haha. Fun to test my hearing out!
I feel you :(
I also got 4 !
I got wrong in the 5th ques - major9th or minor9th 😬
same. I thought it was 2.
I got 4. The only question wrong is the 4th question. The Major 9th/Minor 9th is medium because I mainly focus on the tone color
The 4th question I feel was a limitation of my earbuds. If I used quality headphones it likely would have made a difference. Haha
As a person who lost her hearing partially I am glad I could identify 4/5 and the one I did not get wrong was the similar tones one 😭 this makes me feel proud.
wow.
I've always thought these exercises were really easy for some reason, then finally a long long time ago one of my teachers at the music school sat me down and proper tested me. Turned out I have pitch perfect hearing. I know it's a weird flex, but it's funny learning that I'm that 1 in 10,000 people
it is... 1 in 10,000 there abouts
I hope you listen to heavy metal
I really don’t think the odd is 1 in 10,000, cuz i had 6-7 of my classmates having perfect pitch when I was in grade 10.
The class size was about 25
Same! 😁
@@hiuchiko7523 it is probably about 1 in 10,000, pretty rare, you just had an absolutely insane class i guess
5 points! i play orchestra in my high school currently, we recently played in a competition and got the highest score possible. shows how much practice makes perfect!
I graduated from an arts school majoring in orchestra and also got 5 😎 hearing the tuning A and B (for the band) every day really helped honestly
Same here! What instrument do you play? I play the violin and am first chair. I also got 5 points and oh did you guys get a superior?! My high school orchestra has gotten countless superior ratings and I just love orchestra so much. I also have played piano since elementary school so it has helped so much.
@@3deified omg yes! I play in a symphony orchestra for my state's county orchestra and hearing B being blasted all the time has been permanently ingrained haha
me, a music major, with a perfect score, pretending to be surprised that I'm labeled as 'a professional musician with very good ears'
I got 4 score, I got wrong answer on question 5, hehe. I feel proud that I got 4/5 in this quiz. To be honest, I don't have music lessons, at all. But, I remember when I was 4 years old, my childhood friend's big sister owns a piano, and I am eager to learn how to use piano the moment I saw and hear it. I ask my parents to buy me one but, she said, “what are you going to do with that?”. We also can't afford enrolling me on music school or academy due to poverty. Until now, I'm still fascinated by piano, and other musical instruments as well. Imaging myself that one day I can also play any instruments. That's all, thank you!
Got a 5! I did not expect it because I’ve never taken a formal music class nor have played any instruments since I was a very young kid.
4 on part one and 5 on part two. I am a musician but with a twist.15% hearing loss in my right ear and 30% in my left. I was pleasantly surprised that I had done so well!
What instrument do you play?
@@urielgrey guitar, bass, drums, and I bullshit with a piano.
That is really cool! Thanks for answering!
@@hellview78 i play guitar and bass at an amateur level and got 5 on 1 and 4 on 2, probably would've gotten 5 on 2 if the c/b note samples were on a more familiar instrument, but that's not the test i guess
9/10 in all test. My teachers always said that I have perfect pitch. I dont even know how I answered corretly the 4th question in this part. Is like magic, lol.
Got 5! That surprises me! Although I've been playing some kind of instrument for about 49 of my 52 years on this planet, I played trumpet in 4th grade, and I took a music class in 7th grade, but I never remembered scales, keys, or anything about reading sheet music. I pretty learned to play guitar at 17 from magazines and by ear. I never realized my ear was this good! I don't think I have "perfect pitch", (I don't think I could identify a random note played out of nowhere) but I'm pretty happy with how these little tests have turned out so far. I'm gonna keep on going!
I got all 5 correct, I'm not a professional musician, but I have always wanted to learn the piano and the Violin and the electric guitar. I will be learning the piano through self teaching this year soon.
Got a 5, well I did start going to music school at some point but my hand got injured to a level where I couldn't play the instrument anymore + other ones needed for school. So that left me depressed for years after that. I coped with it after some time.
I got 5 points, I've never been able to pick up an instrument but I have a decent voice. Never had singing lessons though. I found myself closing my eyes and using colours in my head to help me
never too late to start singing!!! snag a singing coach, it'll be super fun!
Got 5! Been training for almost 5 years in a choir so it's kinda expected. Love the validation tho
Fun fact, the chord in the last question is the same chord thats played in the main riff of Bennie and the Jets. I believe it's a Gmaj9, though the first chord in Bennie and the Jets (I think) is a Gmaj7.
Can you identify how a D#°13#11 sounds like?
Edit: it’s a D# diminished chord
I got 5 pts. I've been playing guitar since '97, before that I couldn't even tell a different note/chords/harmony, even my parents said they couldn't stand my singing voice lol
when it said “name a B note, and a C note”, i didn’t know it was going to give an example so i sang a C out loud right before it gave an example, for reference.
5! Not a professional, just a past band kid with a really good ear. My music directors always tuned to me when I played clarinet (my main instrument) and if I was playing flute it’d be my job to get everyone in tune (which…iykyk 😂). I call it “ALMOST perfect pitch” because while it’s super easy for me to pick out who’s flat, who’s sharp, wrong notes etc, replicate melodies, and sing songs from memory (in their original key!), I can’t just tell you off the bat what a note name is 😭 like if someone sings or plays a note I can go pick it out and piano and tell you but I don’t have the notes commuted to memory by name. Something I probably will be able to learn if I wanted to put in the effort….but I don’t 😂
Fun quiz! I have a request, could you do 1 more quiz with some properly tough questions? I think most ordinary people can still score 5 on this one, but I want to try a quiz that would definitely be difficult for non musicians.
we hear it. ok, coming up soon.
@@playbyearsingapore thanks so much
No way that most people can score a 5. On average, it should be between 3 or 4 points (not the questions).
@@adrien5568 there are so many (vaguely bragging) comments saying that they scored a 5 whilst having no musical training. I hate to jump on this bandwagon, but I also scored a 5, except I am sure of the fact that I am decidedly average
@@Aname550 i have no musical background and only got about half right, and even then I wasn't sure of my answer and I contribute it more to luck than skill. I think the reason there are so many comments saying they got full score w/o musical background is because this is a result much more worth sharing, and therefore this group is overreprestented
I got all of them! I literally love music so much
5, I'm less professional musician and more bedroom guitarist, but basic music theory lessons and ear training by figuring songs out by ear helps tremendously with this
5. I found it easier for the last two to picture colors. I felt reds and browns for the minor chords, angrier colors but muted. The major chord felt like greens and pinks that popped.
I pictured the weather. For the major 9ths, it looked like a sunny day, with birds chirping, while for the latter, it seemed like a cloudy day, with the surroundings looking muted.
Hello, fellow person w/ sythasesia. Every note has a color. The minor notes are usually a darker version. Same color as accidentals, actually.
I also got a 5 and am absolutely no professional musician. I have casually taken music lessons over the years and know some basics, definitely do not have perfect pitch. I agree that this quiz is not as difficult as it's perhaps intended to be.
5! Not a professional musician, but I took piano lessons when I was a child, can tune a guitar by ear, and sing a lot of karaoke
I'm not a musician, but I'm a dancer (and I do sing too). In the last one I got two wrong, but I got all of these correct!
5/5, I guess playing clarinet in an orchestra paid off haha
I got 3/5, I think I was thinking about the first two questions too much and second guessed myself because I could tell the difference and distinguish, but I was doubting myself.
I'm a music lover and amateur musician (with no formal music theory education). I got five points but I was pretty unsure about that final question. Had to listen to the examples a few times and still was like "I think it's major but I'm not sure". Also got the last question in the previous video wrong. I thought it was 1-4-6, not 1-3-6.
those 5 years in orchestra really helped me
Got all of 'em right yet again! But the last one was difficult
i love when a youtube video tells me i am a professional musician
I got a 5, I’m not a professional, I’m an amateur but I’m really good at listening. I learned a song on piano just from hearing it
I got a 5. I guess I could start making music I got all the stuff on the last test right too. Who knows
both videos 100%, thanks, the test was fun lol
5 points, ive been able to play instruments by ear since i started playing when i was younger, didnt think it was anything special until my teachers were amazed that i picked up the song they wanted us to learn while they were playing it, i just thought it was something everyone could do 😂
Could do it, but not as quickly
as a person who doesn't really play instruments nor actually take singing lessons (I do just sing random songs I remember) I am really happy to get a 5/5
my family is saying I have perfect pitch though lol
and I don't get the people having trouble with the C note vs B note because I instantly got it and was having difficulty with the Hz question lol
I needed to feel all sorts of vibrations in my ears to get the Hz question right XD
I'm a guitarist and I got a 4, I did train my ears a bit, but its all the practice I do on my guitar (and sometimes my keyboard). Guess that pays off!
Played clarinet for 5 years, piano for 2 and still missed the first 2 questions 😌. Can hear my piano teacher rolling in her grave...maybe it's in a minor chord but obviously I wouldn't know.
After the first part I was afraid this would be hard for me but I got all 5! I guess the major x minor is so much simpler task for me than identifying 5 notes etc. :D
Actually surprised how simple this was. I don't know how anyone who has to tune their own instrument (in my case, guitar) could not immediately answer these. I accept that for those who do not - piano players, for instance - they may never have had the opportunity to train their ears in the same way.
i got all of them! i taught myself guitar in high school and im still not very good, getting this result was a bit surprising !
0:40 my brain immediately thought of "At the speed of light" and just laughed my socks off
i'm not a musician but always knew i had a good ear for music 🎶💜
i got 10 as and this is such a big surprise for me cus I haven't even picked up an instrument in my entire life, just observed music a lot damn
got all correct in both videos, not a professional, but a high school bass clarinetist
5/5 it sure helps to listen to music
i got all five!!! :D this is really exciting because i always conaidered myself tone deaf...
Got 5 but I have terrible relative pitch. But okay musical color identification. I guess.
your ears got to be really sharp to pass all!
I had to listen quite closely to the bassy undertone of the notes on the 4th question, but got it right despite my doubts. 5/5, no formal musical training whatsoever, I have always just had a very good ear for pitch
5 points!!! i have never taken music lessons ever so i think im fine
5 points! Absolutely no experience with musical sheets (i find em actually kinda hard to understand) just a profound love for background instruments like guitars.
4 was easy if you listen to the vibration, 4 was the only outlier with how short and quiet it was
How the heck did I score 5/5? As an amateur pianist I'm so scared but also pleasantly surprised
I got a 3, I love listening to music, any genre. I also play a lot of rhythm games, I might switch to piano soon!
I did good up until the 5th question in the part1 (failed the 3 questions of the 6th point) then in this part2 i got 4 points (failed the 3rd question). I'm a professional listener lol
Edit: the 5th question... it's slightly easier than the 3rd, the only reason i got it right is bc of how the sound kind of "lingers" (for lack of a better word), and that helped me "see" it sounded very slightly lower towards the end of it.
I've got a 5, which is very surprising lol i have what i consider a superficial understanding of music, i know more than the average person, but a lot of music theory just flies right over my head. it's nice to know i do have somewhat of a good ear tho 😁
i definitely need to learn more about major and minor chords.... i got the correct answer at first then changed my answer and got it wrong quite a few times. meaning i could have gotten a 3 or 4 if not for changing my answer
Mans really posted part 2 a whole year later
u are right! now, we r back
5/5, i'm not a professional but i've been a musician for years
Wow, I got a 5! Not professional but sing in a hospice choir.
I got full marks on both videos. I've never seriously learned to play, but maybe something is beckoning me to learn...
5/5 on both tests lets goooo!
I don't know anything about music or play any instruments and I still got 5!
this was actually pretty easy. i dont play instruments or do music or anything like that, and I never have. i just assigned each sound a colour then decided whether the sound was one colour or the other. 5/5
i passed with flying colors awesome!
Got a five, I was floored that i got question 4 right. They are so similar and i felt like i was just fooling myself lol
fascinating
🎻🎶
The 4th question is just straight up testing your micro-tonality 😂 being 5hz off isn’t really that easy unless you play on a low octave where you can really hear the difference.
Note that 'happy' and 'sad' sounds can be culturally realtive. For example, funeral music in Bali has very major tonality, but sounds sad to the Balinese.
I got 4! i didnt get the 3rd question but i was able to figure out the 4th one easily! its probably because i didn't have a direct reference/comparison for the C and B
5 points :) C note is engraved in my brain for some reason..
I was surprised to score 5 :) not a pro and played band many years ago :) huzzah! I would love a test to weed out perfect pitch
cool i got all of these right and the ones from the last video they were pretty easy
I got a 4 and even on the last test differentiating between notes is what's hard for me because I can hear the differences when put side by side but actually picking it out in a vacuum so to speak is hard.
I got 4 correct... I've been playing music for about a year and had the impression I suck at ear or rhythm skills. I did have 0 when I started for sure though.
I got 5 but I'm not a musician. But I like to sing and I love music.
Got 5/5. I am not a professional but i do play the guitar :D
4, but I always found that I could play the song from what I heard.
5/5
So... You're telling me there's a chance I'm not tone deaf...
I got 5... And I'm not even a musician. Never even took any music classes, I don't even know how to play any instrument... I must have gotten lucky.
5 points, but for q4 i couldn't hear the pitch difference but i could hear a tone difference, it sounded like "oo oo oo ao oo" to me
As someone who can tell my cello is flat by the mere counter-vibrations (I think that's what they're called), the hertz one wasn't as hard as I thought it'd be
Got a 4 even when I'm not a professional musician. Is it because I listen to a lot of piano covers and sing a lot ?
5 points and I've never played an instrument in my life 😭
Hey I got 5, but I'm a guitar player so am I really a "professional musician"? Sometimes I like to think so lmao. In all seriousness it's really one of those things you pick up on more and more over time, just has a lot to do with your ability to learn. Some people have learning disabilities and there's others who just have a harder time paying attention, and either way those would be things that could cause someone to fail these tests despite not actually being "tone deaf" per se.
all true including the previous video, i don't know if this test is any good but i did feel happy
3/5 good enough for me honestly i got the easiest and the hardest questions wrong so i think i just lucky to get the other 3 questions right
2:21 That C-note sounds like the piano has been worn out.
5, yepp been playing the guitar since 11
first question was harder than 4th question imo. 4 points in total.
despite playing the drums, a *pitchless* instrument, i still got a 5
5 points!! Hell yea
5 points!
I can't even read music and got a 5 hmm
its likely u play by ear!
You cheated (probably)
2:40 This one just sounded like a slightly different instrument, not any lower, but I still got 5/5 😅😅😂😂
I got 4 and I'm not musician or play music whatsoever but I'm pretty sure I got the major and minor thing by pure luck because I didn't get the right answer for the first but the two after, I got to right one and I literally couldn't see a clear difference (I wasn't sure and switched several times). the herz one was crystal clear though, there definitely was something wrong on one of the notes.
Edit : ok, nevermind, I saw a video and I could detect the difference but only if you compare with the same notes one after the other, not when it's in a song
i got 4 points!! ive been doing piano for 6 months now i rly hope i can improve
Practice makes perfect! :)
