Infusion - Legacy
Go the Aussie boys!
Particulary the remix done by Junkie XL. (The clown who did the Elvis Little less conversation rehash)
My fave 'band' song would be
Something for Kate - Say Something
although it may well be 5 years old for all I know
Train - Augie March
The singles from the 'Doves' album were also pretty good.

AAAAAAAAGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHH NO :p :D
Hi!
The Vines - Outtathaway
Gersey - Look to the Sun
Electric Soft Parade - Theres A Silence
Yup - i'd second that!
I'd also add-
Sparta - Cut your ribbon
Motor Ace - Pieces
Foo Fighters - All my life
Red hot chilli peppers - can't stop
machine gun fellatio - girl of my dreams
butterfly effect - crave
I don't particularly like Jud Timberlake, but Like I Love You does not make me switch the station by any means.

By the Way - Chili Peppers
I am Mine - Pearl Jam
Little by Little - Oasis
All my Life - Foo Fighters
Can't Stop - Chili Peppers
Without You - Silverchair
Something Borrowed, Something Blue - Ben Lee
Youth of the Nation - POD
Stop Crying your Heart Out - Oasis
Triple J's Hottest 100 is supposed to be starting up shortly (a little later than normal) and the three songs I'll be voting for are:
Being Followed - Rocket Science
New Technology - Waikiki
On a Bridge - Halogen
Being Followed and New Technology have a good chance of making the list, but On a Bridge, which I thought was the best song in decades, is probably a little unknown. So I have to cheat and find a way to vote more than once.

Silverchair - The Greatest View was the best song of the year in my humble opinion. Was also from the best album of the year. By far.
I liked Without You, After All These Years, My Favourite Thing, Highly Evolved, Mary Jane, 1969, The Hindu Times, Little By Little, Stop Crying Your Heart Out.... In other words, anything from either Silverchair or Oasis (my fav. bands) or The Vines (not far behind). 'Pieces' could be a good song. And Keeping Secrets is a great summer pop song to sing along to.
