wesley music

The other day I got a note from a man named Daryl Stewart, who's with an English company that sources music for funeral services. Apparently someone had asked them to supply my song "My Daddy Sang To Me" for an upcoming service. He asked if he could purchase a copy. So I ripped out a super-high-quality file and sent it to him. Today I got notice that he'd deposited a nice little sum in my paypal account.

I actually don't mind if people use my music free: after all, that very song is on youtube, available to the internet world free of charge day and night. But as a result of that free distribution, someone heard the song and it touched them. And they had the integrity and coolness to track me down and pay for it.

I feel my heart strangely warmed.
