The best 100 songs of 2007 counted down! We’ve got a small BBQ happening soonish, but the music is going already!
Any picks for number 1? I’d be going for John Butler, but a tough call.
Here were my votes, and I’m betting many of them will be in the top 10 at least!!
Bjork – Earth Intruders
Cold War Kids – Hang Me Up To Dry
Groove Armada – Get Down
John Butler Trio – Better Than
Powderfinger – Lost And Running
Puscifer – Queen B
U.N.K.L.E – Burn My Shadow
White Stripes – Icky Thump
Wombats, The – Let’s Dance To Joy Division
Yeah Yeah Yeahs – Down Boy
Sharon Hammond
Since I’m an old bag & don’t know them all I’ll just pick my top one. Powderfinger – Lost & Running
Damian replied
That would be just as awesome! And wouldn’t Bernie be stoked if that happened :)
Tallulah
I’m also going for John Butler Trio….also like to see Silverchair…”Reflections of a mind”, that’s a pretty cool song…....you don’t look so scary now Damian…..
Damian replied
Yeah, GO JBT!
And I’m not really scary :)

Definitely John Butler Trio. I don’t play the album a lot, but every time they’re on the radio or telly, I’m there, glued with a big grin.
Damian replied
I’ve played the album just a little bit :)
Lisa Jewell
Have it on :)))))
Damian replied
Haha! We’re just cranking the BBQ.
I was surprised the Yeah Yeah Yeahs only came in at 85!
Amanda Hammock
Great now you’ve got me tuning into Australian radio out of curiousity!!
Damian replied
Getting to the good end of things now!
Michael Alesich
Cold War Kids will go well I’m thinking.
Listening to Fratellis and Chelsea now.
Didn’t end up voting, I really wanted to vote for:
Faker – Heart Attack
Wombats – LDTJD
Red Jezebel – Kicking Deadly Shins
and others
can’t think right now
Damian replied
LOL, I’m hoping for the Golden Ticket!!
Faker will be good too, my list is either going really well or really bad! Only one song so far! The rest will be in the top 20 maybe? LOL!
Shanina Conway
Have fun Damian…I’d have to go for John Butler Trio…hot band and song;)
Damian replied
JBT for no1!!
Angela McConnell
MUSE all the way baby!!!
Damian replied
Haha! One of my friends is cheering hard for Muse :)
Angela McConnell replied
unfortunately i keep trying to make my eardrums bleed by recreating the concert atmosphere in my little car…
Michelle Rogers
‘Better Than’ for sure…
Damian replied
Oh well, #4 :)
indeterminacy
I know it hasn’t made the top 100 – but I vote for “Lola La” from House of National Dog HOND – a collaboration between Mariola Brillowska and Felix Kubin. From the Hamburg avanta garde electronic scene.
Oh well.
Damian replied
LOL Inde, don’t know that one!
Angela McConnell
OMG what did i tell you guys – i am SOO stoked!!! did a big dance around the apartment!!
Damian replied
Haha Angela! I didn’t think Muse would do so well! My friend who picked has sat very smugly compared to the rest of us who had said either Johyn Butler, Silverchair or Powderfinger :)
Rob McDonald
good to see John butler in there at #4. This is the first year in ages I have not had a party. feels weird.
Damian replied
This is only the second year I’ve had one, and we’ve had a blast :)
Angela McConnell
it was only 13 votes though so VERY close
Damian replied
Yeah, that was amazing! 700,000 votes, and no1 and no2 only split by 13!
Damian
And my set of ten didn’t go as well as I’d have thought LOL! Four didn’t even make the 100 list! Poor Bjork :(
