Triple J Hottest 100 of the 2010s

The Triple J Hottest 100 of the 2010s was held on the 14 March 2020. It is a countdown of the most popular songs of the 2010s as chosen by listeners of Australian radio station triple j. 1.8 million votes were cast by listeners choosing their top ten songs of the decade.

Tame Impala's "The Less I Know the Better" was voted into first place.

Background
The triple j Hottest 100 of the 2010s allowed members of the public to vote online for their top ten songs of the decade, which were then used to calculate the decade's 100 most popular songs. Any song initially released between 1 January 2010 and 31 December 2019 was eligible for the decade's Hottest 100.

On 23 January 2020, triple j first announced that a 2010s countdown would take place. Voting opened on 11 February 2020, and closed on 9 March 2020. Between 10 and 13 March, triple j presenters Lucy Smith, Lewis Hobba, and Michael Hing progressively announced the songs that ranked between #200 and #101 in the countdown. Voting in recent countdowns has been restricted to the preceding year. There have been some exceptions, namely the Hottest 100 Australian Albums of All Time in 2011, and the Hottest 100 of the Past 20 Years in 2013. This is the first countdown that charts the best songs of a decade.

Projections
Based on media reports following the announcement of the existence of the countdown, some of the most frequently mentioned contenders are Frank Ocean, Lorde, Lana Del Rey, Kendrick Lamar, Flume, and Beyoncé. Once voting closed, bookmakers' three most likely songs to take #1 were Gotye's "Somebody That I Used to Know" (featuring Kimbra), Arctic Monkeys' "Do I Wanna Know?" and Rüfüs' "Innerbloom", both behind Gotye.
