"There are many misunderstandings about musicality. People who consider themselves to be unmusical, say that they have no feel for rhythm, or that they can’t sing in tune. However, most of them are quick to view birdsong, or a cockatoo that can dance in time to music, as 'musical.'"
"Of most people that claim things like ‘Oh, but I'm not musical at all', ‘I'm hopeless at keeping a tune' or ‘I have no sense of rhythm', only a small percentage turn out to be unmusical. The condition is known as amusia, and those who suffer from it are literally music-deficient."
