2008 Hottest-100 Completed

2009-01-26 by Aaron | 16 Comments
As they have for twenty years, Australian audiophiles have commemorated Australia Day by voting in their favourite songs into ABC Radio Triple-J's Hottest-100, with over 800,000 votes being placed. Metal fans seemed to be too drunk to vote this year.

Top Five:

1. Kings of Leon - Sex on Fire

2. MGMT - Electric Feel

3. Kings of Leon - Use Somebody

4. Empire of the Sun - Walking on a Dream

5. MGMT - Kids

It starts to get very slightly better beyond the 80 mark with bands like Weezer, Rise Against, Metallica and Sigur Ros but still an incredibly crap list

Shame the metalheads were being far too metal and getting drunk. If the alcohol was left alone perhaps it could have saved this list from being utter shite?

Perhaps?

Skinny Love, Dig Lazarus Dig and White Winter Hymnal pretty much beat anything in this top 5. the only one I can see being here is Kids, which is a pretty sweet piece of electro pop, Electric Feel isn't that good though.

It was bloody atrocious sitting through that whole countdown, knowing it was going to end with Sex On Fire. And the cricket was awful. Bad day.

Hottest 100 never gets it right. 4 is awesome though, I dunno why but I'm really starting to love it.
