i am not surprised by the lack of pj. they never struck me as a band that gets a lot of ariplay on the Js. oh sure the songs get played but so do a thousands of other songs.
i was thrilled that the grates represented so much. there was as much arctic monkeys as i expected.
and how do the killers have so many fans?

Maybe it's just the demographic then?
PJ used to get a lot of airplay on JJJ back in the 90's but since MMM have taken over "Presenting PJ to Australia" the Js have stopped playing them.
Ever since the appalling "Last Kiss" fiasco. :eek:

Oh cate, I know I only heard most of this stuff this afternoon but I'm struggling to remember who sang what! I know bugger all about the grates, the arctic monkeys or the killers. Sorry. :eek:

oh jeanie, stand by me, i'll lead you through it. though you won't hear the killers from me i will show you the grates and arctic monkeys. both are fun fun bands who don't take themselves too seriously. the grates are from brisvegas i believe and the monkeys are from england. both bands toured together here last august.

the thing with the hottest 100 is that a shitload of people who don't even listen to triple j vote, you'd be surprised how many songs get into the 100 that aren't even on triple j's playlist, like U2 with vertigo got in last year or the year before, and triple j never even play any U2.

that is why you see a lot of songs that have commercial success make the top of the list.

like even just talking to people on here about hottest 100 most have not even heard of Lupe Fiasco, Regina Spektor, Peter Bjorn & John, and Gotye which were artist that are high rotation at triple j

"The club was a cricket team when it formed in 1820 as The Wednesday Cricket Club. A meeting on the evening of Wednesday 4 September 1867 at the Adelphi Hotel established a footballing side to keep the team together and fit during the winter months. They played their first match against the Mechanics on 19 October the same year."

such as the killers. i don't know, they had me in the beginning and then i lost interest. then 6 months later my eldest comes to me all excited cause she'd discovered this new band. yep you guessed...the killers. it was funny. now she actually listens to me when i talk about music. or she just pays closer attention.
