Gotye’s smash hit Somebody That I Used To Know is a dominant $1.11 favourite to take the number one spot in Triple J’s annual Hottest 100 countdown on Australia Day.
Sportingbet Australia’s Tony Wilmot said the song was the shortest priced favourite since he started doing the prices in 2005.
“The song has been a huge hit both on Triple J and mainstream radio and there’s no way I can see it being beaten,” said Wilmot.
“Former Idol contestant Matt Corby’s song Brother has been backed in from $67 to $14 and some punters stand to win four figure sums if it can snatch top spot,” Wilmot said.
“Lonely Boy by the The Black Keys and Video Games by Lana Del Rey have also attracted some longer odds support at $41 and $51 respectively.”
