The triple j Hottest 100 is an Australian institution, and this Saturday's countdown will be a future time capsule of the greatest tunes of 2022.
It's also going to be a thriller — voting in the annual poll closed on Monday, and it's been a tight race, with the national broadcaster reporting in recent weeks that fewer than 125 votes separated #1 and #2.
This year's countdown also has the potential to see some long-standing Hottest 100 records broken, though not without their share of controversy.
