Any artist that can dominate their genre or area in music, are gods in their own right. Who else comes to mind with original children's music, that doesn't fade over time?
That cover blew my mind and really blended my experience as a tame impala fan and dad. My kids love tame impala and the wiggles… this was a real special moment.
The first time I've been happy about a number 1 for like 10 years. The wiggles made this song their own without disrespecting the original. A perfect cover. 😎
Gotta love all the people ragging on this. Every generation goes through it. The point that you say "triple J lost the plot in..." Or things like "triple J was so much better in the ...ties" or "what is happening with Australian music" is the exact date you got old, turned into your parents and started playing the same old songs and albums over and over again. Have a look at your playlists and you'll see what I'm talking about. It's a youth radio channel and you're not a youth anymore.
I'd be willing to bet money it's not the 'oldies' ragging on this. That was a rocking song with some nice old school solo's. Be the yungens bred on auto-tuned hip hop that can't handle it.
Honestly for me it’s the opposite - this song winning brought back a bit of faith in Triple J for me… I’ve been so bored of it in recent years, if I wanted to listen to Billie Eilish and Juice Wrld and Olivia Rodrigo and Kanye West every 3 songs I would turn on HITS FM. I’m glad something a little more unique won. 💕
then again, why would being a childless lass have anything to do with it? I'm a childless lad, but don't feel the need to have it as my opening conversation line? Just go with "this is the best" (I also give tarot readings)🤣🤣 And tea leaves.
Older gen folks whinging like "Back in my day it used to be about Real Music, not this silly novelty nonsense! Triple J is dead." As if Denis Leary's "Asshole" (a comedy song by comedian) didn't top the first proper Hottest 100 in 1993. Just chill and let people enjoy things. It's a big, nostalgic children's band covering a big, psychedelic rock band. Of course folks are gonna find that goddamn delightful.
The older generation don't care that this song hit number 1, they were the ones probably voting for it. They don't like the rest of the dog shit top 10
Seriously if you dislike this win then you have to have a good hard look at yourself. Your heart has turned to stone. This is the most joyful thing ever and we all need a bit of joy at present.
@@emiriidesu Wiggles are great and loved early tame, but because of posterity. It was already memorable and nostalgic as part of like a version, but imo not one for high repetition without risk of losing its charm. So being number 1, it'll get high rotation. To use tenacious d "couldn't remember the greatest song in 2021, this is just a tribute". Going with that tangent, Tribute didn't make the top 100 in 2001. It was an original song, even if stairwayish. The Ms Jackson cover by the Vines got in 30s the following year in 2002. I remember the former (tribute) almost word for word, the latter (vines version) I forgot existed, but obviously I remember the outkast original. Funny is fun, I just think of no1 as something to listen near daily for the whole year and carries big thru the next. Like damn, that'd drive me insane and kill the fun with this cover haha.
No one hates The Wiggles. However this song winning The Hottest 100 shows up two things: 1) How pathetically shallow the JJJ audience is- it was only a couple of years ago they threatened a boycott if Tayla Swift was "allowed to win" even if she got the most votes. What a statement for both democracy and womens rights. 2) How cod ordinary music in 2021 has become.
It sounds like he originally left the band in 2006 due to health issues (briefly coming back and then leaving again in 2012), I wondered if his absence in this was related..
For everyone hating on this that has grown out of triple j remember what grandpa Simpson once said; “I used to be with it, but then they changed what *it* was. Now what I'm with isn't *it*, and what's *it* seems weird and scary to me. It'll happen to you...” Congratulations Wiggles
The fuck are you talking about the wiggles are an australian staple and tame impala are a triple j favourite. This is the most status quo result in years.

Dude...its a youth station, whatever that is. Just because the tik tok algorithm is driving youth music tastes (because that's what they hear and see) doesn't make it any less 'youth'
The Wiggles are real musicians. You can tell this was huge for them to feel recognised as true artists.
True artists? Oh dear
The og Wiggles were a rockband called the cockroaches prior to becomming the Wiggles

Congratulations the wiggles we love your show so much?
This is so wholesome
Kudos to The Wiggles. They slayed that cover.
The most wholesome moment in Australian radio history

how are people mad that they won. chill its a radio station and the wiggles have been making aussies smile for 30 years
Yeah! You BET they have.
*they’ve been making the WORLD smile 💛💜💙❤️ We love them here in the US too!
This song is absolutely a jam!! Even more the wiggles!! ❤️💙💛
The moment I heard this I knew it would go down in history .... legendary
Well deserved by The Wiggles, I reckon listened to that cover about a hundred times after I discovered it. Well done to some true aussie artists!

right in the feels burkey (how right you are 😢 ) but damn, this is deserving 👌
The wiggles are old, its not even the original wiggles. I thought the cover was garbage.
I kinda get this....but you cant tell me this isnt an epic troll ? come on ? even you have to admit that

As they should! I love their cover soooo much
Tame impala dressed as wiggles , to salute the wiggles cover of their song which is in turn a tribute to the Dr Who theme. Mind officially blown.
Well deserved, that cover was brilliant. Shout out from Saskatoon.
As a childless lass nearing closer to 40, this is literally the best 😂

@@68Boca making a point that I’m an adult who loves a Wiggles song despite not having kids to guide me there. Not sure why your offended by that 😂
@@emowankinemoIt's actually not their song aha, but yeah since arguing over "wording"- spose u wouldn't know things that r "correct"
@@68BocaAhaha she said it's their song so that makes a lot of sense aha 😂
Absolute legends , absolutely deserved it ❤️
Wiggles W for the culture
My inner child last night absolutely lost it I was so happy ❤💛💙💜

A number of comedy/novelty songs have won over the years.
Don't forget Pretty Fly for a White Guy too!

The wiggles will forever be my favourite artists
Mine too.
Ugh, so good! Heavy and childlike!
Well deserved. Absolutely loved their cover.
How awesome this makes me so happy 😭😭
Probably the only time I've ever given a damn about the triple j hottest 100. Well done Wiggles! They deserved it!! 💛💙❤💜
Yes. Wiggles won hottest 100 2021 I couldn’t name a more suitable song Choice
YESSSS WE LOVED IT

Lol. A sad reflection on the state of new music, today. That’s all. 😏☺️
@oxox8888 what a sad sod you are
Great cover, terrible no1 pick. Why are these options mutually exclusive to you?
@@ripvanwando it’s the most iconic like a version of the year, why is that a terrible pick?

Now Tame Impala needs to do a Fruit Salad cover🍇🍉🍎🥥🍌
Everyone loves The Wiggles. This isn't a surprise.
Yeah, nah, the wiggles are, generally, nauseating. This, however, this is good wiggles...
@@mr-mysteryguest are you William Shatner in disguise?
Everyone? Best you don’t generalise please
@@spello8191 The majority of people seem to like the wiggles then? Idk they’re fine
And so it should! That one song actually bought me back to Triple J/Like a Version.
I see we're feeling exceptionally sentimental this year.
It's been 10 years that we see murray with his current skivvy instead of his 2007 skivvy
Awesome cover they nailed all the tones
This is so amazing I knew they were gonna win and they did congrats wiggles!
About time.
The Wiggles would make a great indie band! 😂
Congratulations guys. 👍👍
Congratulations to the wiggles
Love that The Wiggles won!!! Congrats guys!!!
which one? the old ones or the new ones ?
Awesome bring back The Cockroaches
Have always loved this Tame Impala track.
Incredible cover
The way they use a old song and they managed to learn the lyrics and change it
Need The Wiggles and Tame Impala to do an entire mashup album like when Linkin Park and Jay Z did Collision Course!
So good. thank you so very much
Bravo 🙌🏽 well deserved!
this is the biggest troll of all time.....and im here for it lol
I loved it and shared it the second I heard it....it's got the x factor
It’s so much better then I expected 😂✌️
So much love
I’m calling it 2023 will be tame impala covering fruit salad 🥗 with the boys dress up as captain feather sword and Dorothy the Dino 🦖
This song when when I realized what such a good vocalist Lachy is.
so wholesome, sorta daggy, 100% Wiggles
I still remember the original group as The Cockroaches.
Next, I'd like to see The Wiggles covering Kevin Bloody Wilson.
I love this, they are so gretaful!!!! They really deserved it !
Yeah this is about the state of the world at the moment
Love JJJ and love the Wiggles
Wooohooo ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
To all the people complaining about it: congrats, you've officially becomes your parents, thats some whiny "back in my day" boomer energy

Good job lachy
We all had a pool party when we played the top 100
It was kinda disapointing ngl
Man. So sick. Well done Australia 🇦🇺
❤️💙💜💛
Congratulations!
They deserve this for sure
Oh gosh, yes.
🌠Hi!! Thank you for sharing that impressive ,interesting video!!💫
The best part is that they stopped Justin Bieber from being number one.
that's awesome that jeff and murray came back, but how come greg isn't in the song?
It sounds like he originally left the band in 2006 due to health issues (briefly coming back and then leaving again in 2012), I wondered if his absence in this was related..
Damn well deserved!!!!
Now let's get kevin parker to cover a wiggles song haha
let''s go! Fruit Salad!
Brilliant 👏
Who will take over for Anthony if he leaves the wiggles
Triple J dropping this at 2am 🤨
boaty mc boat face people of the world unite

They've always been paper thin. The Js stole everything that's made them from local radio stations - even the hottest 100 was stolen from 4zzz.
@@ShapezPuller64 yes I’m aware they tried to steal the name! The Triple Z won the case! Triple J had to change the name I thought?

follow your leader 🔫
KID LAROI GOT ROBBED!
Goodbye forever Triple J. You're now officially dead to me 😢
how tf
love the wiggles ,3j sucks untill now for 15 years
This just proves that alternative music is dead.
This proves that good, novel music is dead.
