Australia Day Hottest 100 countdown!

It’s finally here!!

In an hour the best music of 2008 will start counting down on Triple J

So, what did you vote for? Any guesses for number 1?

These were my votes, and I think a couple of them at least will be in the top 10. I’d probably change a couple of them now, but whatever…

Portishead, Machine Gun
Portishead, The Rip
The Ting Tings, We Walk
Kings of Leon, Sex on Fire
MGMT, Electric Feel
Ash Grunwald, Breakout
Faker, Sleepwalk
Empire of the Sun, Walking On A Dream
Fever Ray – If I Had A Heart
Ladyhawke, My Delirium

    I really hope the Portishead tracks do well! It was the CD I listened to the most last year, I think!

    Love the Ladyhawke cd. Sex on fire might be no 1 or faker sleepwalk

  • Damian replied

    Ladyhawke’s great! I bought it after chrissy and have been enjoying it heaps! I agree with you on Kings of Leon or Faker for No1. I’ve also thought MGMT could be right up there as well.

    I love your selection D. Kings of Leon gets my top vote.

  • Damian replied

    Thanks Ronnie! Yep, looking good for Kings at the moment!! I’m hoping Portishead gets in!! Starting to worry they’ll end up like Bjork last year, and not even get in!!

    man…portishead the top two??? we have more in common than i thought…would you have considered some nick cave in their somewhere? i saw them at atp recently at cockatoo island, pretty magnificent.

  • Damian replied

    COol! So dirty that Portishead never made it into the top 100!!!!
    I can definately cope with some Nick Cave, the guy’s a legeend.
    Still, my votes this year came in with a #1, #2, #4, #11, #50 and #62…! Wooo! Now I just need to recover from all this wine, LOL!!! Work tomorrow…. dang! Hell, one more drink won’t hurt
