I've just put on Triple J's online stream and what the FUCK is on right now.

This is jarring as hell after some ambient I was playing while I was working.
 
I hate everybody who voted for whatever this obnoxious shit is that's on right now.

I don't know, nor do I want to. It's pretty jarring against what was on before it too... yay for arbitrary countdown playlists? Not that they make any effort to not play jarring transitions anyway.
 
That was the Beastie Boys?! I'd say how far they've fallen, but then I've always found them to get grating a bit quickly. Mainly their voices though; that song was annoying because of its godawful instrumentation. I'm glad I don't suffer from migraines.
 
This is the moment when I go "I voted for this!" and then have to stop and think about whether it survived the shortlist or not. I don't think it did. *L*
 
This Bombay Bicycle Club song is awesome. Never heard it before.

Yeah, I really dug that.


Wow. :lol:

Hah, this is the song where I think Gotye's latest album goes to crap for a bit.

Also, ZOMG GOTYE DO U GUIZ THINK HE'LL SHOW UP AGEN?!?!!111
 
In Your Light?

I've already had "did this make the final 10?" moments like four times :lol: not a good sign.

Yeah... I know I settled on that for my Gotye track, but I have a feeling I ended up ditching it for the top ten. *L*

*checks email* Yep, ditched. Sorry Gotye!
 
Here was my top ten.

Bon Iver - Perth
Destroyer - Kaputt
M83 - Midnight City
National, The - Exile Vilify
Radiohead - Separator
St Vincent - Cruel
TV On The Radio - Will Do
Tyler, the Creator - She (featuring Frank Ocean)
Thundercat - Daylight
Joe Goddard - Gabriel

Bon Iver, M83, TVOTR and Joe Goddard should all make it.
 
I love how they read out some tweet about how "teh partie haz STARTED!!!!11" and then #86 put half the country into a coma.

What's this tripe in #85? And what's up with the online streaming thing not displaying song titles?
 
OMG I love this song! I didn't know it was from last year... :lol: Yo Ho Sebastian!

... Guess what my friends named their new child... :lmao:


Must have missed this in the song list.
 
I voted a month ago and long since forgotten what I included. Just checked ... apparently it was this:

Alpine - Villages
An Horse - Dressed Sharply
Washed Out - Amor Fati
Pajama Club - From A Friend To A Friend
The Bats - Long Halls
Pinback - CLOAD "Q"
Russian Circles - 309
The New Division - Starfield
Yuck - Holing Out
Cut Off Your Hands - Fooling No One

Some of those choices are because I try to make at least six of my picks from their long list, rather than doing mainly write-ins. This year's four write-ins are (I think) the four from The Bats to The New Division.
 
I've always liked the name but I think Charlotte has a humorously derisive opinion about it!

Besides the gay-pirate connection?

I like the name too, although I think it tends to be over-used as a goth/vampire name, or in fiction set in Victorian-ish times

Okay, here's my top ten... And I must have not listened to enough albums last year cos I thought it was a pretty ordinary year for music.

Abbe May - Design Desire
Alpine - Villages
Arctic Monkeys - Don't Sit Down Cause I've Moved Your Chair
Art Vs Science - Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger {Like A Version}
Florence & The Machine - Shake It Out
Guineafowl - In Our Circles
Jinja Safari - Mermaids
Mountain Static - Arrangement in Blue and Silver
Russian Circles - Mladek
Pajama Club - From A Friend To A Friend

Mountain Static and Russian Circles being write-ins. I may regret the Art vs. Science one when I get sick of that version if they play it to death, but I like it at the moment.
 
You know what'd be great? To get enough people to troll Triple J with Brokencyde votes that they actually make the Hottest 100.

Next Hottest 100 Of All Time, shall we rally around Freaxxx? :lol:
 
Only 135 for Gotye/Kimbra? Felt like a lot more... mind you, I really only listen for an hour or two in the morning.

I'm guessing it was played more often on Nova. JJJ probably slowed it down once Nova picked it up.
