When connecting my phone to my car, Rosalía’s ABC song from her 2022 album Motomami always plays first, driving me crazy. As car manufacturers phase out CD players in favor of streaming options, some fans are left lamenting the loss of the limited music selection and quirky attachments CDs provided. Although technology offers endless music options in the car, the simplicity and nostalgia of CDs are irreplaceable to many. The memories of childhood music discovery and family singalongs in the car are irreplaceable, creating a unique and personal musical history that holds a special place in our hearts.
