American singer Billie Eilish has won this year's triple j Hottest 100 with her song Bad Guy, becoming the first female solo artist to take the number one spot in the countdown's history.
While there was a lot of speculation that a cover of the 1996 Rage Against The Machine song Bulls On Parade by US rapper Denzel Curry might win the night, it landed instead at number five.
Number two was Flume's Rushing Back (feat Vera Blue), three was Charlie by Mallrat, and four was Dance Monkey by Tones and I.
Eilish, 18, is also the youngest Hottest 100 winner.
"I love performing it, I'm not tired of it," she told triple j shortly after the win was announced. "I remember when we made it I was talking about it for months and months."
This was a strong year for female solo artists
Five female solo artists made it into the top 10, which is historically dominated by male acts.
Aside from Eilish, Mallrat and Tones and I, there was G Flip — Melbourne musician Georgia Flipo — whose song Drink Too Much hit number six, and Thelma Plum, whose Better In Blak was number nine.
It's symbolic of a slow, subtle change happening within the Australian music business, which has long lacked gender equality everywhere from its boardrooms to its festival line-ups.
Vicki Gordon, founding executive director of the Australian Women in Music Awards, told the ABC the top of the industry remained a "boy's club", but there was agitation for change at a grassroots level.
She said more women being played on the radio — and they remain significantly outnumbered on Australian playlists — would help the industry evolve.
"You've heard the saying you cannot be what you cannot see," she said.
"If women are not represented on commercial radio, or even community radio, regardless of their extraordinary talents and their expertise, they will not be exposed to the public and therefore they do not exist in the culture," Ms Gordon said.
