Records

edit
  • The 1999 countdown marks the first time Australia was the most represented nation in the Hottest 100. A record of 52 songs were by Australian artists. This record was equaled in the 2007 countdown, and broken in 2014.
    • This is also the first Hottest 100 in which the top 3 songs were from Australian artists.
  • "These Days" is the first B-side to win the Hottest 100, its 'a-side' "Passenger" came in at No 100; making Powderfinger the first artist to be voted into No. 1 and No. 100 positions of a Hottest 100.
  • Killing Heidi and The Tenants are the first Unearthed artists to appear in the Top 10 of the Hottest 100, finishing second and third respectively. Killing Heidi's second place finish set the record for the highest ranking song by an Unearthed artist. This would later be equaled by Grinspoon (2002), Missy Higgins (2004), Art vs. Science (2009) and Little Red (2010), and was later broken by Vance Joy who won the 2013 countdown.
  • There were eight songs in a row by Australian artists between positions #45 and #38. This is the longest run of Australian songs in a Hottest 100.
  • Dave Grohl made his seventh consecutive appearance in the Hottest 100, having featured in every annual countdown to date.
