The Hottest 100 of Australian Songs is coming – here's how to vote
As part of this year's celebration of 50 years of the triple j family, we're pulling out a big one: the Hottest 100 of Australian Songs.
We love Australian music and we know that you do as well. So it felt like a big Hottest 100 party would be the most fitting way to celebrate 50 years of bringing you the best in what our cherished artists have delivered over the years.
On Saturday 26 July, the entire triple j network – triple j, Double J, triple j Unearthed and triple j Hottest – will count down the 100 best Australian songs, as voted by all of you.
When can I vote in the Hottest 100 of Australian songs?
Votes are open right now, just hit the Hottest 100 voting page, jog your memory with the huge long list we've gathered and start picking what you're gonna vote for.
Whether it's iconic tracks from your past, or current day favourites you can't stop spinning, we wanna hear which Aussie tracks you think are the best of the best.
There's only rule: they must have been released before triple j's official 50th birthday - January 19, 2025.
My favourite song isn't on the voting list!
We can't list every single song ever released by an Aussie artist in our longlist. It would look ridiculous.
If you can't find a track that you want to vote for, you can manually add it to your shortlist using the form on the search page.
What prize can I win for voting?
If you can tell us in 50 words or less which Australian act you'd take an alien who showed up in your backyard to see (and why) then you'll be in the running to win a .
You'll go in the draw to win tickets to every triple j and Double J presented tour between July 2025 and July 2026. Plus, we'll chuck in VIP tickets to Spilt Milk too!

Jason Isaacs reveals ‘professional catastrophe' after blockbuster movie flopped
Actor Jason Isaacs has revealed his career was plagued by 'catastrophe' after one of his blockbuster movies flopped spectacularly at the box office. The English actor, 62, spoke to Vulture following his recent starring in season three of HBO's smash hit The White Lotus, when conversation turned to his role in 2003's infamous bomb Peter Pan. Isaacs, who is perhaps best known for playing Lucius Malfoy in the Harry Potter films, portrayed Captain Hook in the much-hyped live-action fantasy film remake, which was shot on the Gold Coast in Australia. Despite receiving positive reviews after its release, the Universal Pictures film lost money, pulling in a worldwide total of just $US122 million against a $US130 million budget. Peter Pan 's failure to perform ultimately came down to heavy competition at the box office, with The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King and Cheaper by the Dozen both in cinemas at the time. Remembering the setback, Isaacs said he was the 'lowest' he'd 'ever been' after its release. 'It was a big expensive production with multiple studios. We filmed for 14 months. The film tanked,' Isaacs told the outlet. 'I think it's a masterpiece, but people looked at the poster and went, 'Oh, f**k it. I've seen Hook with Robin Williams, and I've seen the cartoon. Why do I need to see another one?' 'It was a catastrophe professionally for me, a huge fall from grace. I couldn't get a walk-on role,' he continued. 'And I changed my agent and I almost changed my job, frankly, because I didn't think I'd work again. The lowest I've ever been was after Peter Pan. 'I was really in despair but not as bad as I would have been had I believed any of the bulls**t that had been whispered in my ear. 'I didn't over-invest in the results of it, which is something I tried to counsel the young actors on The White Lotus not to do.' On The White Lotus, Isaacs also confirmed widespread reports that all actors in the ensemble series were paid the equal sum of $US40,000 per episode, bringing their total pay for the series to $US320,000 each. It meant up-and-coming stars, including Sarah Catherine Hook and Sam Nivola, were paid the same as industry veterans including Isaac, Parker Posey and Leslie Bibb. 'I didn't know that was public knowledge. That's absolutely true,' Isaacs said of their salaries. 'Generally actors don't talk about pay in public because it's ridiculously disproportionate to what we do — putting on makeup and funny voices — and just upsets the public. But compared to what people normally get paid for big television shows, that's a very low price. 'But the fact is, we would have paid to be in it. We probably would have given a body part.'
