Triple J's Hottest 100

[Bacon]

Now is about the time of year that I start looking at the list, trying to find some decent songs from 2008.

I've got the list of eligible songs; anyone got any thoughts on what should be up there this year?

I'm assuming Presets <Talk Like That>, Kings of Leon <Sex on Fire>, MGMT <Electric Feel> & FOTC <Business Time> will all go far.

[BigPete33]

Be surprised if presets don't win, mainly cos they're an aussie band (as well as being decent).

[Garth Kay]

Kings of Leon the whole way.

[Brett Kay]

Will have a lookee. Missed most of the songs due to the staff liking the local radio stations and not triple J.

My guess is that Sex on fire will be top 10, fer sure. But who else. Might have a look now.

pretty simple solution there steve - stop listening to commercial radio stations, and start listening to JJJ. then you still hear kings of leon, just noy every half an hour
