Triple J Hottest 100 Of All Time on Last.fm
Today was the final countdown of the much anticipated Hottest 100 Of All Time on Triple J which was a special edition of the annual Hottest 100 music poll. I have created a playlist on Last.fm including all 100 songs. This is a great way to utilise the playlists on Last.fm.
When Triple J announced this Hottest 100 Of All Time poll, people were encouraged to vote for their most favourite songs rather than what they believed were the best songs. This has indeed brought a lot of songs with an emotional appeal to the list. Nonetheless, there is some fantastic music in there. Here’s what made it to the top 10:
- Nirvana – Smells Like Teen Spirit
- Rage Against the Machine – Killing in the Name
- Jeff Buckley – Hallelujah
- Joy Division – Love Will Tear Us Part
- Radiohead – Paranoid Android
- Queens – Bohemian Rhapsody
- Jeff Buckley – Last Goodbye
- Red Hot Chili Peppers – Under the Bridge
- Foo Fighters – Everlong
- Led Zeppelin – Stairway to Heaven
If I had to pick my three favourites out the Hottest 100 list, it would be Under the Bridge by Red Hot Chili Peppers, One by Metallica and New Slang by The Shins. I’ve added all 100 songs to a playlist on Last.fm which you can access here. At this point in time, it looks like a little over than half of the songs are available for streaming. Happy listening!
