Expect "tone deaf" to be misused as a blanket term to describe anyone who sings badly. A truly tone deaf person is unable to hear differences between notes, thus making them unable to hear what they and others are singing accurately. A great deal of self-proclaimed "tone deaf" people can't sing because they're untrained, not because they have a hearing impairment.

* Invoked by SethMacFarlane as the plot demands on FamilyGuy. One of the characters he voices can be a stellar singer in one episode and totally amateur the next. Seth has perfect pitch in real life and is freakishly good at staying just out of tune enough to sound believably bad; see episode ''The King is Dead'' featuring Brian (fantastic) and Peter (awful) back to back. Even better [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qI3IHahHQIg the actual episode version of Peter's ''I Need a Jew'' (off-key and mediocre)]] vs [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mm2v-FvgSNw a live performance (perfect)]].

* Parodied in ''HarryEnfieldAndChums''. When Lance makes a painfully bad attempt to sing "Who's That Girl Running Around With You", Lee attempts to put him right by inserting correctly-pitched noises such as "bing", "bong", "ding" and "dong" into the melody. Lance begins to get the hang of this, only to revert to his initial attempt when the noises are removed. He then remarks that he's only tone-deaf in English, and not in Italian, proving this by launching into an impressive rendition of an operatic piece.
