Jan 27, 2012 Updated Jan 30, 2012

Well it's all over for another year - the votes are in and the nation has decided on its Hottest 100 songs of 2011.

Everyone guessed it and Gotye scored the top spot for Somebody That I Used To Know featuring Kimbra. The Black Keys made number two with Lonely Boy and ex-Australian Idol contender Matt Corby came in for number three with his track Brother.

Along with the 100 top voted tracks, the list has been revealed of Triple J's 100 most played tracks. Funnily enough, Foster The People earned spots at both number 1 and 100 with their tracks Helena Beat and Call It What You Want respectively. You can read through those via Fasterlouder.
