That bet seems pretty accurate. I voted for 10 or 11 songs and Somebody That I Used To Know was one of them so...I'd say that bet is a pretty good one!

Holllyy fuck had no idea about Molly being in a coma, that sucks, he's a huge part of the Aussie music industry.

i hope the gotye record gets proper love on the year end lists over here in the states.

A band that I've been hearing about and just got announced for the BDO lineup is Stellar Green, hailing from the Gold Coast:

Going to submit my Hottest 100 votes today. Could potentially be the hardest year yet
