We’re in the Hottest 100 endgame now.

The countdown is coming in hot and once again we’ve had over 2.5 million votes submitted.

But what songs got the people fired up? Without saying too much:

  • You’re gonna hear from 25 debutantes making their Hottest 100 debut
  • Despite being the middle of winter here, August was the Hottest month, with the most amount of entries
  • 8 songs in the countdown were uploaded to triple j Unearthed this year
  • There’s 102 f-bombs across the countdown (as many as the last two countdowns combined)
  • 3 artists will join the 15-Songs-Or-Over Club across all Hottest 100 annual countdowns

Now that you have an approximate knowledge of all hundred songs, confirm or deny your suspicions from 12pm AEDT on Saturday 22 Jan as we get stuck into the Hottest 100 songs of the year!

Don’t forget to tune into triple j tomorrow from 10am local time, as we get the party started by playing you tracks that landed at 200-101.

You can listen to the Hottest 100 on the triple j app (iPhone and Android), FM radio, digital radio and on triple j's website, and follow along with us via Instagram, Facebook, TikTok and Twitter. After the countdown, you can chuck on our Hottest 100 playlists on Apple Music, YouTube and Spotify.

Then on Sunday 23 January, go back in time with Double J for the Hottest 100 of 2001. Relive Hottest 100 history as you recover from the day before!
