Get ready to re-jog your memory as Double J counts down the Hottest 100 of 2002 all over again this month as part of the Hottest Weekend.

Yes, it's the summer tradition that reminds just how great our music taste was 20 years ago, while occasionally making us wonder what the hell we were thinking voting for some of these songs.

As usual, this year's replay will unearth tunes you haven't heard in years, while also reminding us we were pretty good at picking the big bangers that would endure for decades to come.

As part of the Hottest Weekend, Double J will relive the songs from the 2002 Hottest 100 on Sunday 29 January, a perfect recovery from triple j's big countdown the day before.

Gather some friends and reflect on the good old days.

Hear the songs you played on your way to go and see Attack of the Clones, the soundtrack to your endless games of Vice City, and the music you turned up when celebrating Stephen Bradbury's gold medal win.

Zan Rowe, Tim Shiel, and Caz Tran will be with you all day, telling you all about the songs that made the big list two decades ago, chatting with artists from the countdown, and getting all your memories of these (largely) unforgettable tracks.

Hear the Hottest 100 of 2001 on Double J from 10am Sunday 29 January.
