Code Review
The pull request successfully improves the accessibility of the SongCard component. Key improvements include the use of focus-visible for focus rings, more descriptive aria-labels for actions, and the removal of redundant labels on the main link. I've suggested a few refinements to ensure consistency in focus states and to maintain visual tooltips for sighted users.

While adding aria-label is excellent for screen readers, removing the title attribute takes away the visual tooltip for sighted mouse users who might not immediately recognize the icon's meaning. It is recommended to provide both for better overall UX.

Similar to the public icon, consider restoring the title attribute to provide a visual tooltip for sighted users.

The focus:opacity-100 class can lead to a 'stuck' visual state where the button remains visible after a mouse click even when the mouse is no longer hovering. Since you've added focus-visible:opacity-100 to handle keyboard navigation, you should remove focus:opacity-100 to improve the experience for mouse users while maintaining accessibility. This would also be consistent with the changes made to the main card link.

Pull request overview
Improves SongCard accessibility by making status icons and delete actions screen-reader friendly and enhancing keyboard focus visibility on the card overlay and controls.
Changes:
- Replace
title-based status icon hints witharia-label-based accessible labels. - Make the delete button’s accessible name unique by including the song title, and ensure it becomes visible on keyboard focus.
- Update the card’s overlay link to use
focus-visiblering styling.
| href={`/songs/${song.id}`} | ||
| className="absolute inset-0 z-0 focus:outline-none focus:ring-2 focus:ring-primary rounded-2xl" | ||
| aria-label={`View song ${song.title}`} | ||
| className="absolute inset-0 z-0 focus:outline-none focus-visible:ring-2 focus-visible:ring-primary rounded-2xl" |

The overlay link uses focus:outline-none but only adds a focus indicator via focus-visible:ring-*. This can remove the default focus outline in cases where :focus-visible doesn’t match (e.g., some programmatic focus) and is inconsistent with other components that use focus-visible:outline-none. Consider switching to focus-visible:outline-none (or removing outline suppression) so a focus indicator isn’t accidentally lost.
