I was poking around in the backend for my YouTube channel recently and was surprised by the view count on some of the videos I’ve put out in the past. I haven’t done much YouTube content recently (though that is probably going to change), so most of this material is from the mid-2000’s.
Several of my most-viewed videos are pretty unsurprising:
- Andrew Anderson Teaches the Double Bass – Part 1 (213,778 views)
- Andrew Anderson Teaches the Double Bass – Part 2 (74,688 views)
I was pretty surprised to find my “Amati” bass recital video up there in terms of views (45,159 views). My camera at the time only had space for short clips, so these were all that we got on tape. Not exactly high fidelity! I did get the whole recital on audio, however, and I put it out on the podcast back in the fall.
Another couple of surprises:
- walking my cats in the stroller (19,761 views)
- Prescott Church Bass Dumpster Diving (5,982 views)
One that I was expecting to have more views (only 1500 or so) was my ButtCradle review video… complete with theme song sung by me!
