Schnitzel and the Moose's Triple J Hottest 100 predictions

Prepare your brains… it’s almost Australia Day, and that means it’s almost Hottest 100 Day! It’s always super exciting, and we have a long history of making reasonably accurate predictions (not in any public or recorded forum, but over beers, and it our opinion, that’s more legitimate) on the top songs as voted by Triple J listeners.

If you haven't voted, it's now
too late and you're probably
dead/about to die.

So, without further ado, here they are… in no particular order, Schnitzel and the Moose’s predictions for tomorrow’s Hottest 100! Also, because we’re fans of hedging our bets, we’ve also got a list of honourable mentions.

Give us your predictions in the comments!

SCHNITZEL AND THE MOOSE

Schnitzel’s note: and, really, Sydney Morning Herald? “…Triple J outsmarted”? C’mon! It’s not like the station is the janitor of the music world and is now screaming “I would have gotten away with it too, if it weren’t for that meddling Nick Drewe!” Shame on your laziness and tabloidism. Go say five “Hunter S. Thompsons" and beg Woodward and Bernstein for forgiveness.
