Music: Triple J Hottest 100

Photos Via Weheartit

OK, so just had my first day if year 11. Incredibly tiring. You know when you don't even do much at school, sort of just sitting in assemblies and by the end of the day you're just dead. Like emotionally drained? Ugh, to much socializing.

Anyway so today I figured out that my headphone jack in my phone is broken so now I can't listen to my music on my bus (it's actually really sad, now it's obvious that I don't want to talk to anyone on my bus). So I'm not sure how I'm going to entertain myself on bus rides now. Anyway so now I'm catching up on my music intake for the day, playing (not quite blasting) Triple J's Hottest 100. I had a couple of friends talking about it at school today, and I've never payed much attention to it as I thought it was just something that just had all the top hits. The friends that were talking about it had a great taste in music though so I was surprised that they liked it, so I had to investigate.

(Triple J's Hottest 100 might be just Australian, I'm not entirely sure but I think it is. Still the music is pretty international so you can Google the list and then listen to all of the songs with me, as I'll be listening to it over the next few days).

Now as I'm pretty musically uneducated (doesn't lessen my love for it) I don't exactly know a whole lot of the songs, but I figure that's OK because one of my friends who lives and breathes with the radio on didn't know all of them so that makes me feel better. I thought I'd put you lot onto it though because it is voted by people and so it's not the top hits that everyone gets sick of after hearing 3.5 times.

So far my top favourite songs of the ones I hadn't heard before are Mess is Mine by Vance Joy (I have a passionate love for Vance Joy and just love most of his songs), Tightrope by Illy, High by Peking Duk (I really like this band and when I listen to all their music I'll give you my top favourites), She Only Loves Me When I'm There by Ball Park Music, and Beware The Dog by The Grisworlds.

Anyway when I've finished listening I'll give you a top 10 that you must listen to. (You must). And so go my children and go and listen to that music! Go right now. Do it. And don't let me down. Also generally I'm not a sucker for rap but I quite liked Hilltop Hoods' song, Cosby Sweater. (This just surprised me so I thought I'd share it).

Anyway I'd love to hear your favourites so if you're in the mood for sharing be sure to tell me in the comments :D
