Olivia Dean wins the triple j Hottest 100 of 2025 with ‘Man I Need’

Olivia Dean has taken out the triple j Hottest 100 of 2025, with ‘Man I Need’ crowned the most-voted song of the year.

The win caps off a dominant showing for Dean in this year’s countdown, with multiple tracks landing high across the list and widespread support from listeners throughout the day. As the final results were revealed, ‘Man I Need’ emerged ahead of a tightly watched top end of the countdown to secure the top spot.

Dean’s victory reflects a year where her music connected broadly across the triple j audience, combining strong individual placements with repeat appearances that signalled sustained voter support rather than a late surge. Few artists in this year’s list matched that level of consistency.

Earlier in the countdown, Dean placed ‘Nice To Each Other’ inside the top 10, alongside ‘So Easy (To Fall In Love)’ and ‘Lady Lady’, reinforcing her presence throughout the Hottest 100 rather than relying on a single breakout moment.

The triple j Hottest 100 remains one of Australia’s biggest annual music events, with millions of votes cast and the countdown once again sparking nationwide listening parties, debate and celebration.
