Here's how I voted:

1. Arcade Fire: Intervention
2. Arcade Fire: Keep the Car Running
3. Art Brut: Direct Hit
4. Bright Eyes: Four Winds
5. Kanye West: Flashing Lights
6. Radiohead: Bodysnatchers
7. Radiohead: All I Need
8. The Shins: Australia
9. White Stripes: Icky Thump
10. Yeah Yeah Yeahs: Down Boy

Quite a difficult year to vote this year, many painful omissions.

I haven't voted this year, I usually do in the hope I win the years feature albums. I haven't really got into much new music this year, although I'm sure I couldfind a bit in their list.


here is the link, the list is huge! http://www.abc.net.au/triplej/hottest100/

I'm always surprised by how difficult it is to choose just ten songs every year. I always think 'God, what a shit year'.
But, lots of great tunes to choose from.

Really? That's odd...I usually have the same thought on my mind. But this year I managed to find three new songs I like!

Also Liars are one of my favorite bands...

The only information I found on Boredoms was a Pitchfork new brief giving their supposed (they said it wasn't totally confirmed) tour dates, and listed them as playing May 19 (my mom's birthday, so I wouldn't be able to go anyway) at the Independant. So I guess that info isn't set in stone. I'll check out Liars.

I totally agree with the lack of adventurous jazz and with those particular stations you mentioned. I also really love the fact that I can log onto most of the channels on my computer and listen to it at work.

You may want to check out your folks account it is a free option if your ever in need.

In need of what? Music? Not likely.
