So basically what you're saying is - back in the day people used to like rock and versions of rock. Now people have evolved and aren't amazed by 3 cord songs with shit lyrics, so let's hate on chet faker who has well written lyrics and has gone beyond the one strum guitar crap. Yeah those damn hipsters who don't like that awesome rock!!!It never used to be like that, there used to be an older Triple J demographic that had a more knowledgeable taste in music voting in the Hottest 100, but now with Triple J becoming more mainstream and the advent of facebook, twitter and iphones it's become more influenced by teenagers that wouldn't know anything other than the latest hipster Aussie artists like Chet Faker and Peking Duk so they vote en masse for them.
The modern day Triple J presenters and music directors are as much to blame for it with the shit they play which seems to be mostly bland generic Aussie hip hop or hipster type music, there's very little variety. Back in the 90s we'd get a diverse range of UK bands like Radiohead, Blur, Oasis, Supergrass, Pulp, Teenage Fanclub and US bands like Tool, Nirvana, Soundgarden, Pearl Jam, Stone Temple Pilots, Green Day, Cake, Mercury Rev with a mix of great local Aussie bands like Spiderbait, You Am I, Regurgitator, Silverchair, Tumbleweed and Jebediah, Mikey Robbins even used to play The Church's new stuff in the late 90s on his breakfast program when they were well past being cool. A band like The Church wouldn't get a look in these days on Triple J no matter how good their music was.
Maybe music was just better back then but Triple J's playlist these days certainly doesn't help, if they play shit music the kids will vote for shit music.
You're not old. If you were you would have manners and quote Eastwood with 'GetAlso get the **** off my lawn
So for all the people saying chet faker is shit - whats your number one? Go one - have the guts to put your music up here
I didn't even vote for talk is cheap as my favourite but it's a deserving winner

This song, it may not be the Black Keys best song but it's still original and memorable unlike Chet Faker's song which no one will ever remember
Evolved from progressive innovative rock bands like Radiohead and Tool to lame boring generic shit like Chet Faker, you're either trolling or you have no clue about music whatsoever.
Oh Plugger, never change.This song, it may not be the Black Keys best song but it's still original and memorable unlike Chet Faker's song which no one will ever remember

lol 'have the guts'. Jesus Christ...So for all the people saying chet faker is shit - whats your number one? Go one - have the guts to put your music up here
Well its simple. Everyone is bagging chet faker but they won't say their favourite song of the year because there is a 95% chance it's a piece of shit - gutless dogs basicallylol 'have the guts'. Jesus Christ...
With Chet it comes down to one old simple thing, the timbre of his voice just doesn't resonate with me at all is how I would put it.So basically what you're saying is - back in the day people used to like rock and versions of rock.

Yeah fair call, was just about to comment again saying what you said aboveExactly my point on personal preference but.
Never changeThe US and UK bands I mentioned have all had worldwide success including The Black Keys.
Chet Faker has only achieved success amongst clueless Triple J listeners here, in the UK and the US he'd be lucky to get a busking gig, no one would know who he is.

Yep and while I don't agree with him putting out the 'best triple j' song of the year, he has by weight of numbers. Main purpose of any sort of countdown achieved but, we all get to have a big ol discussion about music.Yeah fair call, was just about to comment again saying what you said above

Would you really have rathered NOVA FM "High"? Just becase a song a slow doesnt mean it not good
And I can't be bothered with a massive discussion online that's for sure... well not now at least. Just like reading reading the hate that occurs every year, it's hilarious.Yep and while I don't agree with him putting out the 'best triple j' song of the year, he has by weight of numbers.

Can you point me to the post where i suggested it should have been high? I wasn't aware that was the only other option. Also if you can show me where i said something isn't good because it is slow that would be great.
