And The Winner Of The Hottest 100 Is…

Well, it’s all done and dusted for another year, with The Wiggles taking out the top spot in triple j’s Hottest 100 with their cover of Tame Impala’s ‘Elephant’.

It beat out a strong pack of contenders, including Spacey Jane’s ‘Lots of Nothing’, The Kid LAROI and Justin Bieber’s ‘Stay’, and Olivia Rodrigo’s ‘good 4 u’. RÜFÜS DU SOL, Lil Nas X, The Jungle Giants, Doja Cat, and comedy songwriter Tom Cardy also snuck in the top 20. Cardy scored two entries inside the top 20 — ‘Mixed Messages’ and ‘H.Y.C.Y.BH’ — as did RÜFÜS DU SOL — with ‘Alive’ and ‘On My Knees’ — and Lil Nas X, with ‘Industry Baby’ and ‘MONTERO (Call Me By Your Name)’.

There were a number of repeat offenders across the countdown: Olivia Rodrigo had a bunch of songs from her debut album SOUR in there, including ‘traitor’, ‘brutal’, ‘deja vu’, ‘drivers license’, and the aforementioned ‘good 4 u’, while Kanye also had a stack including ‘Moon’, ‘Jail’, ‘Hurricane’, and ‘Praise God’. Lorde even got a handful with ‘Solar Power’, ‘Mood Ring’, and ‘Stoned at the Nail Salon’.

Catch the full list of the Hottest 100 of 2021 below, and the Hottest 200-101 below that (that was all counted down yesterday). Tomorrow, you can tune into Double J as they throw it back to the Hottest 100 of 2001.
