1. Won it last year.
2. Isn't in the running this year, thank God. (you can't vote for it)
3. Same as above.


Thankfully, it's one of the very few music related voting competitions that limits the retarded under 16's from voting for their current favourite pop song.

Some good ones there. Fuck its annoying when you see someone elses list once you've voted and realise how many other good songs you forgot about.

[SSICK]

Of Monsters and Men - Little talks. is my wild card.

Mike you have a killer list, however flumes remix of hyperparadise will poll higher then Hermitudes!

[PSI 304]

Almost damn impossible to pick 10. My shortlist was un-cullable at 37 songs. In the end I picked the songs which had the best memories attatched to them...didn't make it much easier. But here goes!

Arctic Monkeys - R U Mine? - My pick of the year, although being one from early in the year, unfortunately won't poll well due to short memories.
Major Lazer - Jah No Partial {ft. Flux Pavilion}
Macklemore & Ryan Lewis - Thrift Shop {ft. Wanz}
Knife Party - Bonfire
Thao & The Get Down Stay Down - Holy Roller
Bloody Beetroots, & Greta Svabo Bech -Chronicles Of A Fallen Love
Frank Ocean - Super Rich Kids
Hermitude - HyperParadise {Flume Remix}
ShockOne - Chaos Theory
Violent Soho - Neighbour Neighbour

[rhyshc]

My list.
Eagle & The Worm - Give Me Time
alt-J - Breezeblocks
Alpine - Gasoline
Grimes - Oblivion
Parachute Youth - Can't Get Better Than This
Millions - Slow Burner
Lisa Mitchell - Bless This Mess
Of Monsters And Men - Little Talks
Major Lazer - Get Free {ft. Amber Coffman}
Seth Sentry - Float Away

My guess is macklemore or rudimental to take out #1

[DBLDOSE]

Nothing I vote for will crack top 100, but my 2c.

Andrew Rayel - Aeon of Revenge (Original Mix)
Bluestone - Capetown
Above & Beyond - Alchemy (Above & Beyond Club Mix)

[Sciflyer]

Tame Impala going to mob the top 20

[monk_13]

Australia's top choice, once again, disappoints.....

FOR SHAME YOU TEENY BOPPER pingpingpingpingS!

[duste]

Not quite sure what everyone's problem is - it's a very well-composed song.

The comments on YouTube since the announcement are disgraceful; if it's not your style, fine, but don't have a fucking whinge about it all over Facebook, all over YouTube, and all over the internet in general.

I genuinely wonder how many of those hating on the song would still be doing so if it hadn't made it on to commercial radio? Unfortunately there's a big stigma in today's "Triple J society" that anything on commercial radio is junk and should be treated as such regardless of how good it actually is...

[monk_13]

Hated the song when I first heard it. Still hate it today. But that's just me. Comments are more directed at the short term memory of the voters.

[thrtytwo]

so many better songs, it was a good song granted. But meh...same love is a better song than thrift shop IMO

[Crispymk2]

Glad Breezeblocks made it up there. Dont mid Thrift Shop but I agree that there were better songs, obviously just less popular.
As for being ruined by getting high rotation on commercial radio I don't listen to commercial so wouldn't know what the fuck they play aside from wankers talking and annoying commercials every 30 seconds.

[Fukushima]

Does commercial radio play anything but junk

[wormbo2]

Amen!
I am not a huge fan of the 'semi-pro' presenters on Triple J, but thank fuck they don't whine on about commercial, trivial money spinning shit! It's a breathe of fresh air.
Missed 50-60% of the countdown, being a fucking taxi to house mates or swimming, (first world problems, haha) but glad to just hear some variety. :)

[Fukushima]

Does jjj play anything but junk

Fixed

[Syncope]

Tame Impala twice in the top 10 almost makes up for that terrible #1.

But it's not a good song. People get suckered in by a catchy beat and that's it. Look at Nicki Minaj. Bitch has no talent, it's the repetitiveness of the music that fools people into thinking it's something good when it really isn't.

[mehow2g]

Who would of thought people have different type of music.

I barely listen to that radio I heard todays winner a week ago knowing it will win it has a pretty simple formula, very catchy beat, random but very catchy chorus that has profanity perfect combination for the masses.

This is fucking awesome.

[TJ]

Immmmmmmmmm a colddddddddddd assssssssssss honkey!

i love it when people push something clearly subjective as if it is definitely objective

[DBLDOSE]

Once again let down by society. Thrift shop number one, something like this hasn't even been heard by 99% of Australia...

Guy broke his thumb, being a pianist he couldn't play any shows. Decided to compose 9 songs all played with 9 fingers.

[Mr Scorpio]

2 out of my 10 made the Top 100 (Thrift Shop Included bishes), ah well maybe I'll have better luck next year :p

[mr_mike]

I don't mind Thriftshop or Maklemores other songs. But it was obvious it was gonna take out first place. Pretty much any song that is popular around December is going to place high in the hottest 100. I guess people just have short memory spans.
Even more so when songs are catchy and get picked up by commercial stations.

[SSICK]

You guys realise it's voted by JJJ listeners.....being on commercial radio has sweet fuck all to do with it.

[matty12]

I dunno, I think there are alot of non listeners who tune in and contribute to the hottest 100. I reckon its the reason for the last few years songs that have won are also played these days on commercial stations aswell., not like 10 years ago when queens of the stona age took it out, really have never heard that stuff nova etc. I'm sure this is one of the many reasons why.

[schnoods]

You'd be surprised at how many people listen to triple J the one day of the year where it counts and the people who vote just for that one day...

[Sully]

How many people here who voted actually listen to triple J on a regular basis?

[Milhouse]

Anyone found a torrent to get the entire 100 songs ? I think one was released for last year...

[duste]

How many people here who voted actually listen to triple J on a regular basis?

I didn't vote for that specific reason.

[KPWISHN]

I pretty much permanantly have the J's running at work and at home in the garage.

I remember when Nova first started they did play some Queens, Bodyjar etc, quickly turned into a 92.9 copy though.

[Torquen]

^x2

[SK]

5 of my songs made it into the top 100, and one made it into the top 10 (frank ocean - lost)

was a good countdown this year and enjoyed listening to it all day

bring on next year :)

future prediction:
birds of tokyo - lanterns will be top 10

Reeeealllly had to drop the last few from my shortlist... Pretty surprised Urthboy didn't make the 100

The Herd have a pretty poor track record of making the Top 100 unfortunately, I put it down to (this year at least) Urthboy fans spreading their votes over over a few songs, you voted for Stories but I voted for Orphan Rocker and Knee Length Socks, I assume Naive Bravado picked up a few votes as well which eventually thinned him out of the top 100?

Surprised Tuka/Jane Tyrrell and Nas didn't get in.

I'd never noticed, but now that you mention it, they never really have been up there despite some relatively popular songs, although Hermitude did well last year. I had Knee length socks in my shortlist too, but just couldn't fit two Urthboy tracks in and miss another artist completely... so yep I'd agree that was how it went.

[Mr Scorpio]

Taken from the Triple J Facebook page...


For the 1st time ever this weekend we're having the 2ND HOTTEST 100! You'll hear what songs came in at 200-101!!!

I think I'll be happier with this countdown than last weeks :p

[shifted]

Hopefully that too comes out in a torrent. :D

[Sully]
