    • "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.
  • Gotye is the first artist to win the Hottest 100, the Triple J album poll and the J Award for Australian Album of the Year in the same year.

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.
