The Hottest 100 songs in Australia right now are…
Kings Of Leon top Triple J's 2009 list
Every year Australia's nationally-networked, ABC-funded Triple J radio station puts together the 100 most popular songs of the moment. It's voted for by the public, and is usually a very accurate reflection of what the average music-loving Aussie is digging right now.
Kings Of Leon top 2009's Hottest 100 with Sex On Fire, take third place for Use Somebody and 24th and 70th for album tracks Closer and Crawl respectively. So it's fair to say that Australia really does like Only By The Night.
