Okay...random question. I come from a very musical family. All of us play instruments to varying degrees, however, I am able to sing any song in its original key without being prompted. Basically I hear the song in my head and I just know how it sounds. Icouldn't actually say what key it is (because I don't know the names) but tonight my friend and me tested it...she named a song, I started to sing it. Every time I was in the right key (without any accompaniment). Does this mean I have perfect pitch?

I am pretty certain that you have PP and a pretty good tonal memory if you are able to sing a melody in the right key without any prior reference.
