In 2016, I published a post about a British Acid-Jazz band, Jamiroquai.
This soon became something of a phenomenon on my blog, with an incredible number of views. Since then, not a single day has passed without that post getting at least one view.
Today, I noticed that it had been viewed twice, so checked my all-time stats. Sure enough, it is still there at number one, with total views of 5,847.
Another band i head heard about never before. Thanks, Pete! xx Michael

He had such a selection of funky hats. They wouldn’t suit me though. 🙂

I guess I need my own version of your ‘Jamiroquai’ post! I checked and my top posts are travel related, the most viewed post is ‘Exploring Fort Stevens,’ a wonderful park we visit near Astoria, Oregon.

For the first five years of my blog, my most-often-viewed post was — by far — my only German-language post, “Opern-Gespräche”, about an opera appreciation course for adults that I taught here in Frankfurt for over twenty years. But right behind it at # 2 or 3 was always a post called “Seating in the Arena”, about open-air opera performances in the Arena di Verona, Italy.
Now that I am no longer teaching, “Seating in the Arena” has moved up to # 1, and is currently getting six times as many views as my second-place post. If I have interpreted the statistics correctly, this popularity comes exclusively from Google, which has somehow taken a liking to this one post and shows it near the top of various searches.

I am sure that recent visitors to the open-air arena in Verona are also checking out your top post, Nemorino. Perhaps they hope to discover the best place to sit? 🙂
Best wishes, Pete.

I hope so, but don’t know because readers who come via search engines rarely leave comments.

I don’t know about any of the other BBC stations, but 6Music very rarely, if ever, plays them; I do hear them on JazzFM now & again. I can dig them 😉 Cheers, Jon.

I still like their old songs, but rarely hear them on the radio any longer.
(Mainly because I rarely listen to a radio of course. 🙂 )

Possibly I’m unusual [nothing new there 😉 ] but I listen to the radio all day when I’m at home: I very rarely put the television on before 6pm.
