I'm not a deaf musician. I'm a musician who happens to be deaf.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I am tone deaf.
Ultimately, I don't think you can teach a tone-deaf person how to sing. Some talents you're just born with, unfortunately.
In the deaf community, in order to play a role of someone with a hearing loss... you have to have hearing loss.
I have terrible hearing trouble. I have unwittingly helped to invent and refine a type of music that makes its principal proponents deaf.
I wanted to be a lead singer in a band. I can't sing. I'm almost tone deaf. I still play. Next life, rock'n'roll for sure.
I am a musician, but I'm another type of musician.
I'm literally tone-deaf with singing. It's unreal.
There is no relation to sound for deaf people. It is a totally different mental process.
I was actually tone deaf until I had tumors in my ears - I had very small ear canals - removed. Once they fixed that, I was actually able to sing in a pleasant manner.
All rock musicians are deaf... Or insensitive to mellow sounds.
