Preview:
This years Hottest 100 looks a contest between two and the markets have it that was as well with Heat Waves and Booster Seat the two songs which should be one and two when the countdown finishes. We think the two will be very close and thus Booster Seat looks the better value at $3.50 so we have it on top although we cannot split the pair.
Tip: Booster Seat – Spacey Jane at $3.40
Top Two Songs:
Booster Seat – Spacey Jane Preview:
One of the local contenders for the Hottest 100 this year, Perth band Spacey Jane’s Booster Seat is a very nice happy-relaxed song.
The title says it all, it’s about riding in the car in a booster seat.
Given trends for a lot of Australian artists polling high in the Hottest 100 of recent years tends to be some guy singing about breaking up with his girlfriend going all acoustic, this is a nice change.
2020 was a horrible year, no wonder people wanted nice relaxed songs about good times from days gone by.
Top winning chance.
Glass Animals – Heat Waves Preview:
One listen to this and you won’t get this tune out of your head.
Depending on where you are on the music spectrum this is either a good thing or bad thing.
The UK pop-rockers are heavily backed in our market and many Hottest 100 predictors has this as the song to take out the honours this Saturday.
Personally, I quite like the song, but can understand if you ain’t a fan.
At least you can say you backed it should it get up, but a warning, many got behind Tones and I’s Dance Monkey to win last year. It didn’t.
Anything can happen.
