The Hottest 100, announded by being played live in reverse order on Australia Day (26 Jan) is the the result of 668 418 votes, cast by people across Australia, and around the world.

Andrew Neumann of Blackburn Victoria voted for DJ Shadow's song Six Days and won two tickets to COACHELLA, in Palm Springs, California, USA. As I wrote at the time - he missed the call, and heard Adam Spencer's message on his answering machine as it was being aired on radio ... he ran inside to call the station to respond to winning :)
