Like so many others, my 2022 featured a lot of Bad Bunny, but in between "Después de la Playa" and "Neverita," I found plenty of moments to explore other fabulous releases. Tragically, it won't all fit here. Blessedly, plenty of it does! So please enjoy my (abridged, alphabetically ordered) soundtrack for taking the bus, visiting the post office or indulging in the profound luxury of solo museum trips!
