Agree - it is irritating bands like Spacey Jane & Lime Cordiale get so much more airplay and support on JJJ compared to King Gizzard. It's not warranted.

Agree.

It is interesting the different perceptions you get from different generations. I'm in my early 30s (so was teenage/early 20 something in the late 00s/early 10s) and have listened to all the countdowns as well. I notice you rate 1999 quite highly (third best on your chart with 32 songs), but...

Flume's Say Nothing is such a lazy track. The repetitive phrases in the chorus just screams running out of ideas. Very uninspiring song. Doesn't deserve to be anywhere near the top 10 - he has truly been kissed on the **** that everyone got around this one.

I've always found it amusing how Gen X generally seem to bang on about how much better Triple J was in the 90s, when the station slept on such a significant genre that was happening in front of their eyes that decade. Nas, The Notorious B.I.G., OutKast, A Tribe Called Quest, Wu Tang Clan, Gang...

Phil Collins, Janet Jackson, Cyndi Lauper, Billy Idol & Paul Simon say hi?

It died when they created Double J and decided Triple J going forward would be exclusively for teenagers.

Case in point: It's an absolute disgrace Triple J didn't give this 2020 masterpiece exposure... Fresh, innovative, enjoyable... what more do you want? Should've been a top 50 Hottest 100 tune, but it wasn't even on the voting list (lol)

You have hit the nail on the head. Double J was the worst thing to happen to Triple J IMO. I would be very happy if they decommissioned Double J completely and moved back to the "one station" model. Triple J have always targeted the 18 - 24 age demographic, but pre-Double J it was also a...

I sincerely hope for your sake you're not being serious here. It's hard to think any grown adult could listen to Eminem in the last decade without cringing. He is hip hop for nuffies.

Yeah All Along The Watchtower had made every other all-time countdown anyway though at least. Based on Warm Tunas, Avicii’s Levels is looking to benefit off the back of his death 2 years ago and it’s random selection as a non-H200 song on the voting list. Bit unfair on Middle Kids’ Edge of...

I only counted Kendrick's Money Trees & Backseat Freestyle, Azealia Banks' 212, Solange's Cranes In The Sky & Frank Ocean's Nights from the presenter votes on that list. On the flip side, i noticed the presenters voted for Middle Kids' Edge of Town, King Gizzard's Robot Stop & Kendrick's Art of...

Great selections. Yeah I found it interesting most of my votes lie within the first half of the decade as well (Tints my only post-2016 song and was also the one I was least certain on). Launching Double J in 2014 was the worst thing to happen to Triple J IMO. Sure it's great it offers an...

RÜFÜS' Innerbloom (#103 in 2015) is a safe bet to not just make it, but poll well I reckon. This is also the first decade where the 101-200 has been released for every year. Does anyone think anything outside of the 200s can make it?

The 10 from 1999 I would vote for now (in alphabetical order, with songs that actually made the 1999 H100 in bold): Aphex Twin - Windowlicker Basement Jaxx - Red Alert Blur - Coffee & TV The Chemical Brothers - Let Forever Be Dead Prez - Hip-Hop Len - Steal My Sunshine Moby - Porcelain...

Yeah I just reckon the popular music landscape has changed enough since even the 20-year countdown in 2013 to warrant another all-time countdown. For instance, we have seen a huge rise in Poptimism in the past 7 years plus other genres that were previously marginalised on JJJ like American hip...

In the 2009 all-time countdown, 45 of the songs that made it were released before 1993. That’s a fairly significant portion that were ineligible for the 20-year countdown.

Ok well if true, why didn’t they celebrate the 30th anniversary then? It would be nice to get some insight into why Triple J make the decisions they do - their transparency is generally terrible.

I do find it interesting they’ve chosen to do a 2010s decade countdown over an all-time countdown like they did in 1998 & 2009. It almost seems like they are belittling the music knowledge of their current demographic and/or don’t trust them to pay proper respect to the classics. Maybe they’re...

My top 10 of the decade... M83 - Midnight City (2011) Todd Terje - Inspector Norse (2012) Frank Ocean - Pyramids (2012) Kendrick Lamar - Bitch, Don't Kill My Vibe (2012) The War on Drugs - Red Eyes (2013) Tame Impala - Let It Happen (2015) Jamie xx - Loud Places {Ft. Romy} (2015) Thundercat -...

I don’t see why it’s widespread popularity would harm its chances. Things have changed since 2010 when there was widespread outrage that Triple J played Kanye’s All Of The Lights with Rihanna’s feature (incredible song btw) Triple J’s target demographic embraces popular music now (Drake...

Ugh misleading thread title has left me disappointed :thumbsdown:

Best 10 Australian singles from this decade for mine... 1. Tame Impala - Let It Happen 2. Tame Impala - Apocalypse Dreams 3. Courtney Barnett - Avant Gardener 4. Tame Impala - The Less I Know the Better 5. King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard - People-Vultures 6. Courtney Barnett - Pedestrian at...

Does he need to be a bogan from Melton to have some credibility?

Yep this is the greatest hip hop album of all time. It is incredible that something so mature, technically brilliant, innovative and timeless was released by a 20 year old that dropped out of high school after the 8th grade and was brought up in public housing. It is also incredible how nothing...

Surely you're being a tad harsh? I honestly don't understand the vitriolic hatred. They obviously lean heavily on 60s/70s psychedelic rock, however they also incorporate modern synth instrumentation that gives them a unique sound IMO. I challenge you to show me a "drug-era Beatles" song that...

Selected Ambient Works 85–92 is easily one of my all time favourite albums. It is truly incredible that a 21-year-old in 1992 was able to create an innovative electronic/dance/techno album that has aged so well (especially when you consider how dated the breakbeat hardcore “rave” style of...

Yeah I get that, but why are Triple J giving artists like Fisher airplay in the first place? Why aren't the music programmers at Triple J throwing that ghost-produced commercial cash-in into the "No thanks" pile alongside The Chainsmokers and Marshmello? I can assure you Losing It would not have...

So true. For the past 5 years or so, literally 20-30 generic tech house songs are released on Beatport every week that sound similar to Losing It. How and why did everyone suddenly start caring about something that offered nothing new and had been done a thousand times before? Securing 2nd...

Rob Zombie? Unforgiven II? Pretty Fly #1 AGAIN? Jesus christ.... With the benefit of hindsight, it somehow manages to be potentially worse than the original top 10 :drunk: Music Sounds Better With You, Teardrop & Intergalactic are easily the best 3 songs in that countdown - staggering that 2 of...
