text: # Triple j Hottest 100, 2022
  
  The 2022 triple j Hottest 100 was announced on 28 January 2023. It was the 30th annual countdown of the most popular songs of the year, as voted for by listeners of Australian radio station triple j. The day before, the Hottest 200 played, counting down songs 200–101. Merchandise sales from the event supported the Australian Conservation Foundation.
  
  Australian musician Flume's song "Say Nothing" featuring May-a was voted into first place. Australian band Spacey Jane had the most entries, with six, including three in the top 10. Over 2.4 million votes were submitted, and 57 entries in the countdown originated from Australian artists.
  
  ## Background
  
  Any song initially released between 1 December 2021 and 30 November 2022 was eligible for the triple j Hottest 100 of 2022. The triple j Hottest 100 allows members of the public to vote online for their top ten songs of the year, which are then used to calculate the year's 100 most popular songs. Voting opened on 13 December 2022, and closed on 23 January 2023.
  
  The 2021 triple j Hottest 100 culminated with the Wiggles' Like a Version cover of Tame Impala's "Elephant" reaching number one. Over $1.2 million was raised for crisis support organisation Lifeline, the countdown's partner.
  
  ### Projections
  
  On 10 January 2023, triple j announced there were fewer than 125 votes separating the top two songs. Online database 100 Warm Tunas, "the internet's most accurate prediction" of Hottest 100 results, was favouring "In the Wake of Your Leave" by Australian alternative rock band Gang of Youths to take the top spot, followed by "Hardlight" by Fremantle-based rock band Spacey Jane and "Stars in My Eyes" by Brisbane-based pop rock band Ball Park Music. The former two bands also had major wins in the triple j Album Poll and the 2022 J Awards respectively. On the day of the countdown, Sportsbet had English DJs Eliza Rose and Interplanetary Criminal's "B.O.T.A. (Baddest of Them All)" and Australian producer Flume's "Say Nothing" as the most likely to win outright.
