We welcome your suggestions for finding and showcasing Catholic songs
March 19, 2019 - 11:21am — Richard Schletty
This is Richard Schletty. I am owner, admin and editor of TopCatholicSongs.com. I tend to this website in my spare time. I receive no income from this website because membership is free. I welcome your ideas for finding good Catholic songs in any genre written in past centuries or within our current generation. This website has the potential to be a good resource for discovering, learning and promoting Catholic/Christian music.
What are we missing here? How can we improve accessibility?
I have been greatly hampered in making songs available to visitors due to copyright restrictions – especially the inability to show lyrics and guitar chord names for hymns and psalms. I have explored "mechanical licensing" that would allow me to display song lyrics, but the fees are way beyond my means, Well over $1200 a year. I have tried to provide guidance for accessing song lyrics and chords on this page: Liturgical Music Resources.
I welcome your ideas for making Catholic music more accessible. A big thank you to all who have joined TCS. Please keep talking to each other, and post your own original songs!
In the Spirit,
Richard
