Notes
edit- "Somebody That I Used to Know" is the first collaboration between separate artists to top the Hottest 100.
- "Somebody That I Used to Know" also marks the first time that the Hottest 100 and 4ZZZ's Hot 100 have featured the same winning song.
- For the second consecutive year and the third time ever, the #1 song featured a female vocalist. This was also the second consecutive year the #1 song was a duet between a male and a female artist.
- Kimbra became the first New Zealand artist to feature in the #1 song of a Hottest 100.
- Additionally, Kimbra's four tracks equals the record set by Lily Allen in 2006, and Florence and the Machine in 2009 for the highest total from a female artist.
- The song "The Suburbs" by Arcade Fire charted in the countdown for the second year in a row after a cover by Mr Little Jeans featured at #100. Similarly, Owl Eyes' cover of "Pumped Up Kicks" was #28, four places higher than what the original version by Foster the People could manage the previous year.
- For the third year in a row an artist from Triple J Unearthed got in the Top 10. This year it was Boy & Bear, San Cisco and The Jezabels.
- The 2010 and 2011 Unearthed High winners (Stonefield and Snakadaktal) both made their first appearances in the Hottest 100. This is the first time this has been done.
- Producer Francois Tetaz helped write, produce and mix eight songs that charted in the countdown. The songs he helped write/produce/mix were all the songs by Architecture in Helsinki, Kimbra and Gotye.
- This is the first countdown since 1995 not to feature any previous Hottest 100 winners.
