The 2015 Triple J Hottest 100 was announced Australia Day, 26 January 2016. It is the 23rd countdown of the most popular songs of the year, as chosen by the listeners of Australian radio station Triple J.
Voting commenced on 9 December 2015, and closed on 22 January 2016.[1] Voters nominated ten songs that were released between December 2014 and November 2015 and submitted them through the Triple J website. Over 2 million votes were again cast, this year from 172 countries.[2] 54 songs in the 2015 Hottest 100 are by Australian artists, with 26 artists of any nationality making their debut.[2]
Despite a betting agency's campaign aimed at getting Justin Bieber featured in the list, similar to 2014's #Tay4Hottest100,[3] Triple J announced that no songs have been disqualified from the 2015 list.[2]
