DMA’S cover was iconic from the start and now it’s been etched into the history books forever as the first ever Hottest 100 of Like A Version winner.
Definitely a good cover, though I think Illy deserved the top spot for his medley, and AB Original with Paul Kelly for Dumb Things was my number 2 pick.
That, or Horses.
Maybe I am going blind, but couldn’t find a link to the full list anywhere in that article, so here it is if you didn’t want to go digging: https://www.abc.net.au/triplej/hottest100/1-100
If you go to the triple j YouTube channel they have the playlist there. You can see them all.
I only voted for DMAs because I didn’t want Denzel Curry’s song to win. I love Rage but he just shouted that whole song. Still, got 9 of my songs in the top 100 so I’m stoked!
I liked this format because there was a much harder time figuring out which songs were at the top.
+1 Illy’s medley
It’s a really interesting article and worth the read too!
Surprised The Bennies Ol’ Man River didn’t get a nod.
