triple J Hottest 100 of 2022

[TubbsFarquhar]

ugh god this song sounds like something they released back in 2010, how grim

It's 1955 with different lyrics. It's basically the same song.

The Dripping Tap is surely gone now. We have a whole party waiting but we are losing hope

Tell you what, the annoying Australian Idol ad with some douchebag covering Yellow makes you really appreciate King Stingray's cover.

I loved their album, but I cannot get around this cover at all.

Sounded like a bit of gibberish for me.

I must be the only person who doesn’t rate King Stingray at all, feel like the lead singers voice is awful and they’re get a pass because they’re indigenous

 

[two blue tiger]

Not one song of my list in yet (of the 200!). Probably only the one with GOY "In the wake..."

I really hope you are just unaware that they included some Indigenous language in the cover, cos otherwise the claim of "gibberish" is really gross and offensive.

If it's one of the aboriginal languages, my apologies.

Can't agree. I don't care enough to tune in but they're one of a few bands I've been skimming the count for. They're not reallllly my thing, but I do think they're one of the better and more exciting bands, at least within the Triple J sphere of indie rock.

I think the vocalist is great. Reminds me a lot of George Burarrwanga who is one of the finest and most underrated frontmen Australia has produced IMO.

I also think the last part of your post is a pretty offensive assertion that you might want to reconsider.

that’s fine mate, that’s your opinion much like mine was my own, there are much worse and much better artists in the list either way, music is subjective anyways haha

how does Boring Eilish make it every year? seems like people just vote for names these days and not for the actual music produced because this is a bore fest

 

[two blue tiger]

Spacey Jane, Lime Cordiale and Ocean Alley really is the holy trinity of nothing bands who are almost completely interchangeable. They remind me of dairy milk, not completely terrible or offensive, but it's just so basic.

Hard to believe just how average LC are. Better bands playing covers at my local RSL......

 

[SSwans2011]

As a general rule, Australian bands that take influence from reggae ****ing suck. Particularly in recent times with Sticky Fingers being the obvious example when that shitty trend emerged, which is almost as bad a crime as all the crook shit they've done.

 

[nobbyiscool]

That Shooting Stars cover is kind of lame without the accompanying video

 

[Schulzenfest]

So does As It Was come remarkably high or does it miss out entirely? Hard to see it making it at this point. Which is surprising because it's certainly not the sort of song I would've expected Tunas to overrate.

AMEN brother. I wrote in the wrong thread. Ocean Alley is derivative. Even their best song isn't comparable to any of the rock classics.

I think Spacey Jane are the better of the three.

I did rate Tame Impala quite high on my list so far. It's like my 7th favorite song.

 

[nobbyiscool]

Camp Dog is my first song of the day. I thought it'd be the highest of my votes, but Doja Cat and hopefully Thelma Plum are still to come.

Have to disagree with Billie English. Her songs this top 100 are amazing. I rate them highly

Agree 100%. They're always going to get the "It's only a token gesture" I've got Let's go as my #1 song so far followed by Yellow. They're so great to listen to. Two of their songs are probably among 6-7 out of the 100 that I'll care to listen to again.

To much ****ing autotune ruining potentially good songs.

 

[Schulzenfest]

So what's left for the 25? In no particular order

Say Nothing
In the wake of your leave
Stars in my eyes
BOTA
Delilah
Hardlight
New Gold
Sitting Up
Bad Habit
Glimpse of you
Backseat of my mind
Stranger Days
God is a Freak
Get inspired
It's been a long day
About damn time
Am I ever gonna see your face again
Facts of life
Gay 4 me
Turn on the lights
Cuff it
Pulling through
First class
Vegas

That's 24. One mystery song. As It Was?

 

[Purple7x08_24]

I don't think I've had any entries come up. But then again I did go off the grid.

 

[BuddysBiggestFan]

Guess Kendrick’s The Heart Part 5 doesn’t make the 200
