My Hottest 100 - or at least 10 of them
I have spoken previously about the Triple J Hottest 100....
(I will digress for a moment. I was trying to look up the post linked above... GOOD GOD have I really been reading this website on an almost daily basis for nearly four years?!?...)
... ahem. Sorry about that. Uh, the Triple J Hottest 100 is a national institution. The country's government funded "youth" radio station runs a poll every year, looking for the previous years top 100 tracks, which are then dutifully played in reverse order all day on Australia Day.
Despite the fact that I no longer listen to Triple J, nor will I be in Australia during Australia Day (we should be flying from Barcelona to Paris on the 26th, followed by sight seeing and climbing the Arc De Triomphe...), I feel it is a national institution which must be observed.
That said, my allocated ten votes for the hottest 100 are as follows (alphabetically)...
Biffy Clyro - Mountains
Cog - Are You Interested?
Cog - Bird Of Feather
Guns N' Roses - Chinese Democracy
Metallica - Cyanide
Metallica - My Apocalypse
Metallica - That Was Just Your Life
Metallica - The Day That Never Comes
Slipknot - All Hope Is Gone
Slipknot - Psychosocial
For anyone interested, the official list (i.e the new songs which made it on to Triple J's playlist) can be found here, and any Australians can vote here.
(as a side note, dragontail, "Hawksley Workman - Piano Blink" made the list...)
