EARLIER TODAY..
Happy Hottest 100 day, music lovers! triple J’s annual Australia Day weekend tradition is back, as the youth broadcaster reveals listeners’ favourite 100 songs from 2024, as voted by them.
The competition was the brainchild of former triple J staffer (and my old uni lecturer) Lawrie Zion and was first held at the Hot 100 in 1989, as listeners voted for their favourite songs of all time. Since 1993, it’s been known as the Hottest 100 and a countdown of listeners’ favourite songs from the previous 12 months.
As per tradition, we’ve already had a few clues dropped from triple J about this year’s countdown. Two ‘huge’ records are set to be broken, which is impressive for a competition that has been running for more than 30 years.
Apparently it’s going to be a close one, as any of the top 4 songs could have won last year’s countdown with the amount of votes they’ve each recieved. Despte this, the bookies and well-known prediciton site Warm Tunas have Chappel Roan as the hot favourite to take out the coundown with ‘Good Luck, Babe’.
