I don’t remember after my first car. But I got a really big raise at work one year and bought the new Malibu the year it was redesigned. Black with leather interior. First song played:
Radar Love by Golden Earring
It’s a great fucking song to drive too fast to.
Dire Straits - Money for Nothing. It was on a cassette in my parents car. Not what I normally listen to, but it’s an alright song, and after having had to endure whatever my parents decided to listen to, that was what I decided to turn up on my first drive alone.
I think the first thing I brought into the car with the intent to listen to it while driving was Dream Theater - Awake, freshly recorded from CD onto tape
I have never been happy about driving. I probably to turned the radio on and listen to whatever was playing on the local station. Might have been Champaigne with Chris Rock.
I played Royal by Deon Custom and KRNE
Heeell yes! I used to blast Italics all the time. It’s from that wonderful music era of my life from 2014-2016 where I exclusively found music on SoundCloud.
You are my people.

Carmageddon soundtrack
Probably something by the RHCP, but I cannot remember properly
Must have been Lee Scratch Perry. Not a song, a handful of tapes played over and over and.
REM’s Drive, I know it’s trite but I actually liked Blossom.

La bamba!
It was probably something by The Used or MCR. What a time to be alive in 2008.
Not yet there, but it will probably be something on the radio, as I don’t have any tapes (which is the only thing it supports). Could I still buy them anywhere?
I see a lot of tapes at thrift stores or even antique stores. You could also get a Bluetooth or AUX tape adapter which are conceptually very cool
Wow, thanks. I’m kind off sceptical of the aliexpress adapters and I don’t even know if the tape player even works. I might test it with some kind of religious tape from my grandma.
No idea.
