donbot Posted June 11, 2013 Posted June 11, 2013 This may or may not be of interest.. For those unaware, Triple J is a national Australian radio station, and every year they hold a poll for the country's favourite songs of the year, called the Hottest 100. It bills itself as the 'largest music poll in the world', and gets over 1 million votes (every year seems to get bigger, with 2012/13 getting a record 1.5 million).

Michael* Posted June 11, 2013 Posted June 11, 2013 Interesting lists. Good to see TV On The Radio mentioned in the overall top 100, the airplay for that song in the UK was virtually nil, so I'm glad they're getting their due somewhere. Quote
