We polled triplej to find out what our top 50 songs from triple j's Hottest 100 2009 would be if we revoted today. Everyone who participated was able to vote for 10 songs from the Hottest 100 or 200-101 that year, and was also given the option to rank their votes for more interesting results (scores weighted 2 → 0.5 instead of 1). It's been my pleasure to tally the results and share them with you all today.

Biggest winners

• Bag Raiders's Shooting Star climbed 17 rankings to claim the #1 spot in our 2020 rankings. The song saw a renewed life in 2017 after its inception into a meme which was popularised by a video posted on reddit. Memes aside, the song is undoubtedly a classic from the Australian electronic music scene and worthy of the #1 position on our list
• Florence + The Machine climbed the highest number of ranks with You've Got The Love from #191 in 2009 to #13 in our 2020 revote. The English band also claimed #2 in our rankings with Dog Days Are Over which peaked at #10 in 2009's countdown, however only these two tracks made our top 50 from the band's debut album Lungs
• 2009 was a big year for Australian indie folk band The Middle East. They won triple j's Unearthed Award and released their first EP The Recordings of the Middle East which was made available to download from their Myspace page. After peaking at #64 in 2009 with Blood, the band continued their success around the globe and it's no surprise that they rose in our 2020 revote to #6
• Arctic Monkeys placed at #54 and #112 in 2009 with their first two singles from their third album Humbug. Both songs jumped rankings to make our top 20 with Cornerstone emerging as the favourite in 2020 at #10

Biggest losers

• Lisa Mitchell's Coin Laundry was the only top 10 song from 2009's countdown which didn't receive enough votes to make our top 50. The Australian artist released her debut album in 2009 and had four other songs including her Like A Version make the top 200 of the Hottest 100 that year, however none of which appeared in our 2020 revote
• 2009 saw American band Gossip release what would become their biggest song Heavy Cross. It was voted in by triple j listeners at #16 in 2009's Hottest 100 however did not see the same love in our poll
• English band Kasabian polled strongly in 2009's countdown with songs at #17, #51, #85 and #174 however took a big hit in our 2020 revote with only one song sneaking in to our top 50

Should've made it!

There was only one song that was nominated by multiple people that was released in 2009 which we thought should've made the countdown:

• Ke$ha - TiK ToK (2 votes)

To see what other songs were nominated you can view the poll results here.
Thanks for voting! What do you think of the results? What are you surprised by?

Adapted from this MetaFilter comment. The only really useful thing missing are track listings for the various concerts, but you can look up the ones you're interested in by searching for "radiohead" + the venue and (full) year here.

I've been doing this the past few years as a joke with friends, It also allows me to explore the lineup and discover some sweet music. I've been to Lolla with 0 research which means you go see just who you have heard of...and by doing my homework beforehand and really steaking out your day. I definitely prefer the latter. The festival website has a good little bio on most bands, which is way less tedious than looking them up on youtube/wikipedia all the time.
​
THURSDAY
THE STROKES – I’m going to try to be as drunk as jullian casablancas during this show. I love this band, I would listen to reptillia on repeat and binge-study in college, they headlined Lolla Chile 2017, looks like they still bring it
THE CHAINSMOKERS – I can’t wait to make out with a 20 year old
HOZIER- what do edgy Mormon kids listen to? Hozier. That’s who.
RÜFÜS DU SOL- hopefully they remember to charge their IPODS this time and don’t cancel their set. Jk I had fun last time I saw them
H.E.R. “an artist with a keen skill for channeling the pain and ecstasy of life through a variety of sonic moods.. "I wrote these songs during a dark time, so selling out shows has blown my mind." Sweet sad R & B! can’t wait to sit in the shade and eat grilled cheese to this
GUD VIBRATIONS VS SLUGZ MUSIC – EDM dj’s find the newsest way to differentiate themselves, by “Facing off”, or otherwise co-piloting a Spotify playlist intersected with deep bass synths and energetic rhetorical inquiries like “WHERE MY HEADBANGERS AT!?”
LIL BABY – you should check out his song “drip 2 hard” which recants a time where rapper lil baby had a blackout night with a stranger and required a penicillin shot in the ass.
KING PRINCESS – name taken from the thesaurus of “you see what I did there?” band names, “At 11 she turned down a record deal in favor of finishing school, which eventually led her to USC's Thornton School of Music for college.” She’s appears to be lesbian, pop artist
FITZ AND THE TANTRUMS – you know you got a solid lolla band when your song is featured on enterprise rent-a-car commercials and 8th grade pep rallies (look up the walker) – I can see myself having fun at these guys.
FISHER – ok this guy appears to be a house DJ you’d see playing at pride fest, so naturally I’m going to go there and trick shaun into taking his shirt off somehow.
LAUREN DAIGLE “A whirlwind three-year journey brought two-time GRAMMY® Award-winning songstress Lauren Daigle right back to her native Louisiana in 2017.”- pretty much adele, she’s got some pipes
**FKJ – “**Music can often be directly rooted to one location – murky electronics belong to London nightbus rides; smoke-filled saxophone solos evoke images of dusky New York jazz bars” – really glad they (lolla) hired a hipster to do bios of every band, it was such a pain in the ass to look everyone up on Wikipedia individually and determine their genre is defined as “smoke filled saxophone”
DEORRO “After more than a decade of developing his genre-blurring musical style, Los Angeles-born producer Deorro……” you’re not blending genres when you have an autotoned singer projecting catchy/elementary lyrics over lazerbeams and building drums….. I’m sorry that doesn’t count
**SABA “**Six months after releasing Care For Me — a sophomore studio LP on which Saba transforms his survivor's guilt into something equal parts traumatic and transcendent — the Chicago native paid a visit to Tiny Desk.” Artsy def jam slamrap…. Has an NPR tiny desk and a full arrangement
**NORMANI “**Best-known as one of the four members in the multi-platinum group Fifth Harmony, Normani began to explore a new musical direction on her debut solo single "Love Lies" with Khalid. Since its release, the song has been streamed over 650 million times” poppy R&B
HAYLEY KIYOKO 'Curious' and 'What I Need' (featuring Kehlani) have placed her at the forefront of an unapologetically queer pop movement." I don’t think I’ll be allowed at this concert…
LENNON STELLA – former youtuber now teen pop sensation! How inspiring! She has that “takes a bitch to know a bitch” song which I’ve heard on the radio
**HOBO JOHNSON & THE LOVEMAKERS -**NERDS, hipsters, thespians and alternative hip hop, yep band geeks got around and do that slam poetry hip hop stuff, but they are as white as wonderbread…. Can’t say their genre’s saturated at least
JEREMY ZUCKER – a wholesome young cute bro singing catchy pop songs on a rooftop in Toronto, he’s like Justin beiber if he didn’t start getting famous until 21
CAUTIOUS CLAY – Hip-Hoppy R&B singer, leon bridges-ey
GHOSTEMANE **- “**Growing up in Florida, Ghostemane (Eric Whitney) was originally a guitar player for hardcore and doom metal bands. Whitney was introduced to rap music when he was the guitarist in the hardcore punk band Nemesis and a bandmate introduced him to Memphis rap….” You kidding me? This genre of music fucking exists? Like did fred durst have kids and they’re rebelling?
SHALLOU “Joe Boston aka shallou is a Maryland-born indie electronic artist whose debut EP All Becomes Okay catapaulted him from obscurity to prominence via strong word-of-mouth buzz.” – rufusey sounding -
CLOZEE she’s played banaroo/electric forest – prolly a good time to wook it up at perries
EMILY KING – She reminds me of Prince “remind me” gives me Wilson Phillips guilty pleasure vibes
**GOTHBOICLIQUE “**They are the pioneers of retro Emo and 90s Memphis-goth-rap-revivalism that currently dominates the underground rap scene.” - call me the grumpy old man who says that the music kids listen to these days sucks.
YBN CORDAE - our generation had lil bow wow, this generation has YBN Cordae….. he’s not terrible has this song called locationships, which actually perfectly describes the songwriting style akin to Afro Man, and Lou Bega
SVDDEN DEATH “Taking inspirations from Noisia,16BIT, Skrillex, and other legends in the dubstep community - SVDDEN DEATH has formulated a hybrid of textured rhythms and sub-wrecking basslines to create his own maniacal sound. Curating all original sets,” – it’s the soundtrack of purchasing ecstasy
ELEPHANTE- Hailing from Ann Arbor, Michigan, Tim Wu began his musical career as a classically-trained pianist and singer-songwriter, playing in bands in high school and college. Graduating from Harvard University, - yet he’s still a dj, at least it sounds like he hasn’t ruined his brain with ketamine
DUCKY (LIVE) – “DUCKY is a San Francisco bred, Los Angeles based producer and DJ who has been playing clubs since she was 13 (via fake ID vibes)”- this was 3 years ago….. it’s the EDM you’d listen to if you were also into anime’
HALF•ALIVE - The music of half•alive breathes, evolves, grows, and changes alongside the lives of the Long Beach trio - Josh Taylor [vocals], Brett Kramer [drums], and J Tyler Johnson [bass]. Encompassing R&B, funk, pop, rock, soul, and more under a glow of disco ball bliss,- They look like the dudes from silicon valley, they sound a lil bit like parcels, and they have music videos like OK GO
KILLY – man ever since drake came in the Canadian rap scene has really blown up….. this guy is in no way like drake in the entertainment sense.
MAX FROST- I feel like he could sound track any EA sports game, and it would be my favorite song on it. Now the 26-year-old singer, multi-instrumentalist and dynamic live performer, who in a few short years has seen his star rise in a major way thanks to tours with everyone from Twenty One Pilots, Panic! At The Disco, Fitz and The Tantrums, and Gary Clark Jr –
BEACH BUNNY- alt pop “sadgirl” music. And they’re from chicago so that is neat
HARRY HUDSON 25-year-old "Folk Pop" artist Harry Hudson was born in New Jersey but moved to Los Angeles at a young age…… sounds an aweful lot like pop-pop to me… regardless its not a jamband so no thanks….
COUSIN STIZZ – raps about lawless chicago neighborhoods which makes me feel privileged and uncomfortable
**DES ROCS – “**Singer and songwriter Des Rocs has set his sights on reigniting the grandiosity of rock music. The New York City native has cultivated a gritty yet infectious sound that nods to vintage rock n' roll while offering a modern alternative twist. He's created bombastically loud music constructed unironically for speakers that hit 11, buzzing with all the electricity of contemporary hits.” – I’m going to be a sucker for anyone who isn’t a multi instrumentalist pop singer rapper or whatever, so don’t know if this actually good or if it stand out.
WIN AND WOO - A duo from Chicago, IL; Win and Woo is comprised of longtime friends Nick Winholt and Austin Woo. Their eclectic style is fused with a heavy blend of melodies & driving bass lines that work seamlessly with intricate percussion. The two draw inspiration from those push the limits of their creativity.- danceable, isn’t all “LET ME HEAR YOU”
AMA LOU - Win and woo then ama lou, lol….. Artsy Hip-hoppy, Erika Byduuvibes
WILLARIS. K - Gaining support from legendary BBC Radio 1 tastemaker Pete Tong, east coast Australian producer Willaris. K continues to leave his sonic footprint in the electronic sphere on account of his progressive, eclectic productions and widely acclaimed live shows. – Think a good rule of thumb, is if these dj’s are good enough to fly across the pond, the probably bring something to the table
EVAN KONRAD “The best way to describe the music would be Thom Yorke translating Christopher Nolan’s Memento into songs, and even that only scratches the surface.” I’m a so-so radiohead/Christopher Nolan fan, and in No way does this dude sound like either one of those
BAD CHILD- and worse music… jk its just another multi instrumentalist guy making loops and signing just does nothing for me at this point.
ALEXANDER 23…… another one of those guys, singing break-up songs… and about moving to California and he’s not whitney
JACKIE FOSTER – she was a contestant on the Voice! I wonder if she has any songs about heartbreak and self doubt? Then finding resilience within herself? God I fucking hope so
FALU’S BAZAAR – Grammy nominated international superstar who has more fans that 90% of these bands, why? Because they are from india and a billion people live there, all sharing the strange slumdog millionare taste in music
SONIA DE LOS SANTOS – You see that movie COCO? It was beautiful, well this band has traditional Mexican music that can be heard on every Hispanic radio station
JOANIE LEEDS & THE NIGHTLIGHTS – one minute your opening for motely crew doing blow off of nipples and pelvic tattoos fast forward 30 years and your touring with joanie leads & the nightlights at kidapalooza
SCHOOL OF ROCK ALLSTARS- i’ve convinced them to let me sit in on one song…. Free bird.
