I just have to give a shout out to Madrona Family Dental. I was referred to them many years ago by a coworker and I have to say, along with my first childhood dentist, this is the best place I’ve ever gone to.

Dr. Tarr cares about what he does and how he takes care of his patients. His bedside manner is impeccable. He never tries to sell you on anything. He provides informed solutions and allows you the space to figure out what’s best for you.

His assistants are all highly knowledgeable, professional, friendly, and authentic. They have the ability to see who you are and help you how you need it. Not all practices are like this.

I don’t mean to trash the dental industry by saying this, but I’ve encountered nearly every terrible practice in the book. I’ve also admittedly been tough to help because I have had a lot of work done over the years. A lot. So, my trust and comfort level with dentistry has never been steady until I started going here. And, my oral health is the best it has been in my entire life, thanks to me and the blessing of the Lord. 🙂

So if you’re in the Seattle area and you need a solid dentist, this is the best practice. Now, I don’t even know if they are taking new patients, but I’d check for sure.

Some of you may or may not know that this is the 20th year anniversary of me releasing music to the world. Over the years, I've released hundreds of songs, tens of albums, several musicals, and some short films. It's never really paid my bills, but it's always been a good outlet for me and I hear I've had a majorly positive impact on others' lives from time to time, which makes me feel amazing when I think about it.

Anyway, I took my lifetime digital music sales data and analyzed it to see which online music distributors contributed the most over the years. This doesn't include the majority of royalties from licensed music and basically amounts to downloads and streams. My audience is mainly in North America, but around 15 percent are in Europe somewhere and about 10% are in Asia.

Here's what I found:

Digital Sales (2004 - 2024)

Apple Music & iTunes: 55%
Amazon Music: 11%
Spotify: 9%
Facebook: 7%
Napster: 4%
Rumblefish: 3%
eMusic: 2%
MediaNet: 2%
Deezer: 1%
Other Partners (124 total, including TikTok, YouTube Music, Verizon): 6%

I think the most surprising thing is to see Facebook have such a high contribution. I've never seen or heard my music on social media, but I do know that my Fortnite song gets some traction. ♥ I have to say thanks to Apple for either paying the most or putting me out there the hardest. ♥
