Triple J's Hottest 100: Our Predictions

Did your favourite tracks make the list?

It’s as Australian as snags on the barbie and hotly anticipated all year round - so we hope you got your votes in this year’s Triple J Hottest 100. After many heated discussions in the office over our favourite tunes of 2017, the team at THE ICONIC finally managed to get our list down to ten songs, and not a single feel was spared.

Let Me Down Easy - Gang of Youths

Optimism and hope combined with incredible lyrics, we love this tune and it’s uplifting vibes. Not to mention lead singer David Le'aupepe’s soulful voice - that alone would get our vote every day of the week!

Humble - Kendrick Lamar

Trust Kendrick to dish out the ultimate boss vibes. How can you not feel a million bucks when busting it out to this all-time badass track?

Green Light - Lorde

We couldn’t not include this total sing-a-long track by our favourite girl from over the ditch. Who could forget the anticipation (and the all out excitement) when she finally released Green Light after such a long wait? This one has our vote!

Sally - Thundamentals

Everybody knows that Sally can’t dance, but do you know the story behind this absolute tune? According to band member Tuka, it’s a song about a girl he had a crush on, who, you guessed it, couldn’t dance. Voted!

The Man - The Killers

So boss! In classic Killer’s style, this is a song that you can learn quickly and remember forever. Great beat, fun lyrics and the ultimate confidence boost.

Mystik - Tash Sultana

Two words: trumpet solo. 90’s jazz vibes mixed with that incredible voice from the multi-talented Australian songstress. Listen on repeat, all day, everyday.

Chasin - Cub Sport

We can’t get enough of the heartfelt and sincere honesty in this track. A beautifully executed mix of gospel, pop and soul, this is a deeply personal track for the band, and would tug at anyone’s heartstrings.

Chateau - Angus and Julia Stone

Trust our favourite brother and sister duo to deliver the goods with Chateau. With classic Angus and Julia vibes, it’s a song that’s guaranteed to deliver the feels.

It Don’t Matter - Moonbase

The ultimate late night tune to revive any fading party. With collaborations with the likes of Anderson Paak, this guy is one talented Australian musician we bet you haven’t heard of yet (but you’ll be seriously glad you did.)

Voices - Sunscreen

For the ultimate up and coming indie pop, check out Voices by Sunscreen. This track is all about the chiller and upbeat vibes, with heartfelt lyrics beautifully delivered by local songstress Sarah Sykes.
