The Hottest 100 of Australian Songs – a triumph for radio and local music

27 July 2025 What I have loved during the countdown across triple j and Double J socials and afterwards on various news sites is the debate about the missed out, the 'shoulda been higher' and the 'what the heck was that one?' that the 100 inspired. I want this debate to continue and was emotional at just how invested Australians of all ages were in where their own favourite songs fell.
