Predict the Triple J Hottest 100 Top 10

[Jaymin]

Could be a tricky year for predicting where songs are going to fall in the Hottest 100. Pick the Top 10 and see how close you get.

Scoring System

3 points - Predict a song in the top 10 in the right position
1 point - Predict a song in the top 10 but in the incorrect position

Tie Break - Pick the artist with the most songs in the Hottest 100.

 

[Pumbi]

I'll give it a crack.

1. Cee Lo Green - Fcuk You
2. Rock It - Little Red
3. Big Jet Plane - Angus & Julia Stone
4. Sunday Best - Washington
5. Solitude Is Bliss - Tame Impala
6. Teenage Crime - Adrian Lux
7. Dance The Way I Feel - Ou Est La Swimming Pool
8. Plans - Birds of Tokyo
9. Bang Bang Bang - Mark Ronson & The Business International
10. Barbara Streisand - Duck Sauce

I've gone pretty standard, not many roughies there at all.

 

[Trojan82]

1. F U - Cee Lo Green
2. Plans - Birds Of Tokyo
3. Rock It - Little Red
4. Teenage Crime - Adrian Lux
5. Big Jet Plane - Angus and Julia Stone
6. Clap Your Hands - Sia
7. Barbara Striesand (SP?) - Duck Sauce
8. Tokyo, Vampires and Wolves - The Wombats
9. Undercover Martin - 2 Door Cinema Club
10. My Eagle - Children Collide


Cee Lo will take it out by a mile. I can't see Washington making the top 10. As much as Duck Sauce annoy the shit out of me they'll still make top 10.

 

[Trojan82]

Mark Ronson probably should have been in there... Meh I'll stick with what I have

 

[soupaman]

1. Dance the Way I Feel - O Est Le Swimming Pool
2. F U - Cee Lo Green
3. Barbara Streissand - Duck Sauce
4. Tokyo (Vampires and Wolves) - The Wombats
5. Bloodbuzz Ohio - The National
6. Plans - Birds of Tokyo
7. Rock It - Little Red
8. Revolution - John Butler Trio
9. Sprawl II - Arcade Fire
10. Ready to Start - Arcade Fire

 

[Bourky23]

serious underestimation of Runaway by Kanye in here.

 

[jo172]

1. F-U - Cee Lo Green
2. Big Jet Plane - Angus & Julia Stone
3. Rock It - Little Red
4. Babara Streisland - The Duck Sauce
5. Teenage Crime - Adrian Lux
6. Addicted - Bliss & Esso
7. Plans - Birds of Tokyo
8. Runaway - Kanye West
9. ABC News Theme Remix - Pendulum
10. Somebody to Love Me - Mark Ronson

Most entrances - Kanye West.

Wouldn't be shocked to see Tokyo Vampires, Young Blood, Bloodbuzz Ohio, Sunday Best, The Hardest Part or Clap Your Hands added with the above to heavily influence the top 20.

 

[Aussie Assault]

serious underestimation of Runaway by Kanye in here.

Agree. I think it'll squeeze top 3.

 

[Pumbi]

serious underestimation of Runaway by Kanye in here.

I was gonna put it in there but I reckon the success of the album as a whole could cause a log jam of Kanye songs outside the Top 10 if you get me.

Most entrances - Kanye West.

I've got $16 (Most it would allow me?) on Tame Impala for this, paying $7. Kanye and Arcade Fire the main rivals I reckon.

 

[FIGJAM]

I reckon Power will be higher than Runaway (I personally think Monster's the best track, but that's a whole other thread!).

Never underestimate the thrashing of a song by the J's, nor the ability for friends of local bands to influence the result.

 

[JuddyBuddy]

Rock It isn't going to win? Few people over the punting board will be dissapointed.

didn't seem to hurt Kings Of Leon or MGMT a couple of years ago?

Just read that thread, not a big fan of what they are doing to be honest.

I personally don't think Runaway has hit the mainstream markets as much as Sex on Fire/Use Somebody and Electric Feel. Don't get me wrong, i think Runaway will be high but just not Top 10. Probably #11

Just my opinion on the matter, i'd be very happy to proven wrong although I would prefer if Gorgeous beat it!

Oh you're absolutely right but my KoL argument had two points I guess.

Nobody I knew voted for Sex On Fire yet have all voted for Kanye this time around, but I often forget that the Hottest 100 isn't really a "true" reflection on JJJ's audience and you'll get the johnny-come-lately's voting in it.

Mind you, I honestly don't know of anyone who hates the song Runaway and would expect high-levels of both 'demographics' to vote for it.

There was pretty heavy anti-KoL-resistance from a lot of J listeners during voting that year yet they still shat it in.

(I'm don't consider myself to be a JJJ elitist, but the point I make is an accurate one)

 

[Stenglein's a Champ!]

No-one rating Opposite of Adults as a top 10 chance?

Pretty lame post....

Couldn't agree more, I hate people who hate on the Hottest 100 just to laud how they're even more alternative than the alternatives, either ignore it, or post a sensible argument instead of this looking down on bullshit!
