Spreading the Music


               I like the idea that more and more people are listening to my
               music. I believe I have a good message to share, lifting
               people’s emotional and spiritual well-being.

               So, taking the year 2022, how am I doing? A rough
               breakdown is given in the table below.


                 Type of listening/singing          Number of views,
                                                    people listening in
                                                    2022. These are
                                                    mostly estimates.
                 Youtube                            2500
                 Churches playing recordings of my   1000
                 music ( CCLI and Jubilate payouts ).
                 Churches singing as a congregation   1000
                 my music ( Jubilate ).
                 Live performances (ten)            1000
                 Other, spotify, CDs                500
                 Total                              6000

               As a rough estimate then, I would say I had around 6000
               views/people listening to my music in 2022.
               Youtube was the largest contribution with 2500 views. This is
               easy to analyse with the Google analytics function.

               The next sizeable part was somewhat surprising - churches
               playing choir recordings of my music in their services. This
               might be during communion for example or a time of
               reflection. Of course, it is not known how big the churches
               are so this is a bit of an estimate. It was something I did not
               foresee - the use of recorded videos and audio in services. It
