Start pouring over your 2020 playlists and diving back into your Spotify Wrapped, because voting for triple j’s Hottest 100 of 2020 has now opened.

It’s going to be an interesting countdown — unlike other years, when we’ve had clear frontrunners like ‘bad guy’ or ‘Never Be Like You’, 2020 has been a little more divided.

Recently, Reddit nerds tried to crunch the numbers across streaming services to make out a potential top ten, with Glass Animals’ ‘Heat Waves’ landing in the number one spot, followed by Stace Cadet and KLP’s ‘Energy’, Eves Karydas’ ‘Complicated’ and G Flip’s ‘Hyperfine’.

As always, triple j has rounded up some of your favourite acts and presenters and put the all important question to them: Who’s in your top ten??

The results are wildly varied — Billie Eilish opts for some Strokes and Phoebe Bridgers, while Flume taps Future Islands and Bicep, and Tones And I gives a nod to fellow Aussies Lime Cordiale and G Flip.

Scope out some of the lists below — and dive into the full lists over here.
