I CAN'T BELIEVE IT! AMAZING!! #hottest100ofaustraliansongs #hottest100

[Andrew Hobbs @AR_Hobbs]

Geez I really am running out of ideas for what might have been better than this... Khe Sahn at 8? #Hottest100OfAustralianSongs

[Andrew Hobbs @AR_Hobbs]

It's quite lovely isn't it?!

[Andrew Hobbs @AR_Hobbs]

Ok confession. I have never heard "How to make Gravy"... this is my first time. #Hottest100AustralianSongs

[Andrew Hobbs @AR_Hobbs]

Amazing top 20 so far! And honestly surprised "Somebody I used to know" is only number 10! Good grief... what's next? Paul Kelly i guess? #Hottest100AustralianSongs

[Andrew Hobbs @AR_Hobbs]

One of the rare occasions where self-congratulatory radio intros are 100% valid. #hottest100 #Hottest100OfAustralianSongs

[Andrew Hobbs @AR_Hobbs]

Love "Walking on a Dream" #WArepresent #hottest100 #Hottest100OfAustralianSongs

[Andrew Hobbs @AR_Hobbs]

A little sad "Confide in me" didn't make it into the countdown (yet) - it was a risk at the time abd such a versatile song... but #CGYOOMH still rocks. #hottest100 #Hottest100OfAustralianSongs

[Andrew Hobbs @AR_Hobbs]

Well done to Natalie Imbruglia and to me making the right decision years ago to buy "Left of the Middle" on cassette. #Hottest100 #Hottest100OfAustralianSongs

[Andrew Hobbs @AR_Hobbs]

Holy Moly, the Presets beat "Working Class Man?" Not complaining, just surprised! #Hottest100 #hottest100ofaustraliansongs

[Andrew Hobbs @AR_Hobbs]

YES!! This song was one of the first of so much quality music that came after. Love "Frontier Psychistrist" forever #Hottest100 #hottest100ofaustraliansongs

[Andrew Hobbs @AR_Hobbs]

@AnouskaHaaket You were right!

[Andrew Hobbs @AR_Hobbs]

Also obviously WA represent!

[Andrew Hobbs @AR_Hobbs]

The WAIFS!!!! I did not expect this!! #sparksjoy #Hottest100 #hottest100ofaustraliansongs

[Andrew Hobbs @AR_Hobbs]

THIS is the best Veronicas song "4ever" - Untouched I still can't get behind! #Hottest100 #hottest100ofaustraliansongs

[Andrew Hobbs @AR_Hobbs]

With Empire of the Sun and Eskimo Joe, WA has officially entered the chat. #Hottest100 #hottest100ofaustraliansongs

[Andrew Hobbs @AR_Hobbs]

@MsMotts I know how you feel!

[Andrew Hobbs @AR_Hobbs]

@JSpeaks73 The cultural resonance of that tune cannot be overstated!

[Andrew Hobbs @AR_Hobbs]

If I'm going to keep talking about it, better post my votes... I decided to go with: What songs would I scream and turn up the radio for? #Hottest100

[Andrew Hobbs @AR_Hobbs]

@life_obstacles I'd be amazed if they got in but it's such a beauty of a song!
