SpenniesTriple J Hottest 100 - Did You Pick The Winner?
January 29th 2007 23:26
I might have been away sick all last week as a result of ear infections and wisdom teeth that had to be removed. But thankfully I was able to put all the pain aside and enjoy myself on Australia Day (and by 'put the pain aside', I obviously mean 'numb the pain by drinking large quantities of alcohol).
Listening to the Triple J Hottest 100 Countdown while attending an Australia Day bbq is an Australia Day tradition. Though I must say, that this is the first year in many years that I failed to pick who would take out the Number 1 spot. My prediction for this year was Eskimo Joe's Black Fingernails, Red Wine. The song in face, came in at number 2, beaten out by Augie March's One Crowded Hour. A big surprise for sure, and though I'm not a huge Augie March fan, One Crowded Hour is a fantastic song.
So, did you vote for a song? And where did your favourite songs of the year end up? The results are shown below:

I'm a fan of the Killers too. I'll have to come along and take part in your Grammy prediction contest
Comment by Justin
Most of the top 10 was predictable, save the Grates who should be resigned to that particular 6 months everyone thought they were great collectively, whilst individually was considered a loud splash of mediocrity.
Also glad the Hilltop Hoods got a gong at #3; thought the Arctic Monkeys would have been higher, along with Blasko and Ben Harper. And where was Sneaky Sound System?

I was just looking through the list this morning and also was surprised not to see Sneaky Sound System in the list!

Hope you're feeling better, sounds like it was a rotten week. I hated having my wisdom teeth out, I felt like I had a big hole in my head...
I didn't pick the number 1, but I think it's a great song. I was pleased to see Muse in there...I saw them at the Horden last week and was blown away.

Tracy - hiya! Yes the wisdom teeth were not fun! It's always good to see Muse do well in the countdown. I'm so jealous that you got to see them. I can imagine they would have been fantastic!

I actually managed to pick:
1 Augie March One Crowded Hour
2 Eskimo Joe Black Fingernails, Red Wine
5 Scissor Sisters I Don't Feel Like Dancing
6 Gnarls Barkley Crazy
7 Snow Patrol Chasing Cars
I figured a Killers one would be involved somewhere, just wasn't sure which one.
I'd also thought these might be up there, so I wasn't too far off:
13 My Chemical Romance Welcome To The Black Parade
15 Lily Allen Smile

I also thought My Chemical Romance may have broken the top 10.
