Ahead of tomorrow’s Hottest 100 countdown, we’ve been celebrating the songs that almost made it.
The Hottest 200 is always a mix of incredible international and local artists, some of which are at the beginning of their careers. So give some love to this year’s crop, because cracking the top 200 is no small feat!
Which song came the closest to Hottest 100 glory? ‘Time I Love To Waste’ from Sydney pop sensation MAY-A was #101, meaning it was just a few votes away from the top 100!
More than half of the countdown was made up of Australian artists (58 songs, to be exact). And coming in at #162 was the viral Abbie Chatfield x Candy Moore remix that took over our feeds in 2021 and gave us lols when we needed them.
The artist with the most songs in the Hottest 200 was Drake, with four tracks from his latest album Certified Lover Boy. Following him closely at 3 songs each were Flight Facilities and QLD’s Beddy Rays.
We saw four Like A Versions placed in the Hottest 200, and three of them were back-to-back!
Head to the triple j website for the full Hottest 200 list and some more tasty takeaways.
We’ll catch you at 12pm AEDT tomorrow for the main event, where we count down the top 100 songs of 2021, according to the nation!
Then, absorb some Hottest 100 history on Sunday by tuning into Double J’s Hottest 100 of 2001. You can get acquainted by checking out Something for Kate’s Paul Dempsey covering the Top 20 songs of 2001, so you’re ready to cast your mind back to a time where the iPod was just about to become a must-have.

My nickname is “The Amnplifier”. Why? Because around here my focus is on being a conduit for providing greater outcomes that people come here for. My day to day “work” is living in the moment, and I love helping others concentrate on finding their connection to themselves through their experiences.
Why start a music environment? The truth is I love music, I love writing, and I love life. I work with musicians every day, and I feel certain that I will be until they put me in the ground. I have been managing people in businesses of some sort for over thirty five years so along the way I have developed some “wisdom” from my regular and constant “observations”.
Amnplify your experience. That is what we want you to do here, and if you want to let me know why you do, or don’t, shoot me a message on Facebook.
Hope you enjoy yourself here and find something that hits you somewhere.
