Triple J’s Hottest 100 countdown kicks off at 12pm (AEDT) on Saturday, with more than 2.5 million people voting for their top 10 tracks from the past 12 months.

Who will win Triple J’s Hottest 100 for 2021?

First held way back in 1993 (when only 50,000 votes were submitted, all by mail), the Hottest 100 countdown has become a permanent fixture in the January calendar, a cultural signpost that the year may begin in earnest.

In further proof that The Wiggles are our greatest ever supergroup, the children’s band is the favourite to take out the number one slot in the Hottest 100 with their cover of Tame Impala’s 2012 track, Elephant.

Should they toot-toot-chugga-chugga their way to number one, their cover would be the first Like a Version entry to win.

According to Triple J, 25 artists will be making their Hottest 100 debut, while eight of the top 100 tunes in the countdown were uploaded to Triple J Unearthed this year.

If you suspect that music in the Hottest 100 countdown might have slightly passed you by (what breed of feline is a Doja Cat, exactly?), then on Sunday, January 23, Double J will play the Hottest 100 from 2001!
