Triple J Hottest 100 2008

edited November -1 in OK Go
each year a radio station in australia called triple j tries to gather the hottest 100 songs from that year voted by the people... of course...

this year ok go has two songs eligible for voting [invincible and here it goes again (as far as i know they weren't released this year, but whatever...)]... last year here it goes again came 14th so i think we should make that happen again... it's free all it will take is a bit of your time...

here's the link:

  • Wow. They're really serious about this. Email confirmation and everything.
  • i think they've actually got less strict about the voting compared to last year, which is hard to believe... i think people thought they went a bit crazy with the rules last year so they changed it...

    anyway, i forgot to say what i vote for...

    British India - Run The Red Light
    Cat Empire - So Many Nights
    Custom Kings - Up Late
    Fratellis - Chelsea Dagger
    Kaiser Chiefs - Ruby
    OK GO - Here It Goes Again
    Ok Go - Invincible
    Powderfinger - I Don't Remember
    Shins, The - Australia
    Silverchair - Straight Lines

    quite a few of those are by australian artists so you probably have no idea who they are... do any of you know who the silverchair, powderfinger or the cat empire are? they're all pretty big in australia...

    I've heard of silverchair, they were a guest on a radioshow. They're a bit- em, crazy? But in a good way, blame it on the drinks they were having. Isn't one of them married to Natalie Imbruglia (sp?)?
    Their music is pretty rad smile.gif

    daniel johns, the lead singer, is married to natalie imbruglia... they've released 5 albums and every single one of them has debuted at number 1... they've won 19 aria awards (australian recording industry association awards) which is more than any other person or band... they did a tour this year with powderfinger (who also are pretty hugely popular) and every single one of the shows sold out... daniel johns is pretty crazy... and he can play the guitar with his mouth... which is really freaky and i have no idea how he does it...

    straight lines was the highest selling australian single of the year... they're pretty popular... tongue.gif
