Rewind a few weekends ago and it was the Hottest 100 countdown on Triple J, and you may remember I posted that I was completely out of touch with ‘what is popular‘ these days. Totally based on the argument ’my songs didn’t get picked’.
So the ‘King’ himself, Richard Kingsmill posted the list of the songs that just didn’t make it … the 101-200 list. Did I do any better? Could I grasp onto some form of ‘current culture’ and get at least one song in this list?
- Cure, The – The Only One
- My Morning Jacket – Evil Urges
- Nick Cave and The Bad Seeds – More News From Nowhere (#114)
- Snowman – We Are The Plague
- Smashing Pumpkins – The Rose March
- Ryan Adams and the Cardinals – Fix It
- Mars Volta, The – Goliath
- TV On The Radio – Golden Age (#130)
- Wolf Parade – Bang Your Drum
- Nine Inch Nails – Discipline (#125)
Hey, 3 out of 10 ain’t bad? Im still ‘slightly’ in touch. Suck it Hall and Oates – Im not out of touch!
