That's how I thought of each note, and going out of my way to make the conversion to solfegg was a complete drag.

The only time I've gotten pitches incorrect was when somebody played a random glob on the piano and I might have confused a D in one octave with another in the upper or lower octave. These were 20-note clusters, so the mistake is understandable.
Well, I do NOT have perfect pitch, and I got 9 out 10 sight-singing exams, and probably 8 out of 10 solfège (which is a complete drag; on that, we agree ).
