Trivia

Scoring songs at #1 and #3, Powderfinger set the current record for best performing pair of songs (ranked by adding their positions). This record was to be equaled by Kings of Leon in 2008. The Offspring held the previous record, with songs at #3 and #4. Powderfinger also became the only act at that point to top the countdown twice, after "These Days" topped the 1999 list. Flume would later equal this record after winning the 2016 and 2022 countdowns.

"Thank You (for Loving Me at My Worst)" by The Whitlams also featured in the 1999 Hottest 100 at #54, as did "Mutha Fukka on a Motorcycle" by Machine Gun Fellatio at #59.
