Sometimes I wish I had perfect pitch, but I've heard that it's more of a curse than a blessing. If things like ringing phones or doorbells are slightly sharp or flat, it drives you nuts.
I have some kind of pitch recognition but I don't know what to call it. If I hear a song and it's not in the right key - even a half-step off - I know it instantly. And I "remember" keys, so if I'm singing a song acapella, I can almost guarantee I'm singing it in the right key. Also, if you ask me to sing an F, I can do it, but I need a few seconds to sing around to find it. Ubertuber, is that relative pitch?
