Gotye And Some Other People Nominated For 2012 APRA Song Of The Year

Look, we’re not calling this a lock or anything because they accidentally gave his Australian Music Prize to The Jezabels earlier this month and awards are generally unpredictable and subject to forces which we may never truly know or care about but we’re talking about songs here and there is not one artist nominated for this year’s APRA Song of the Year who has parlayed the success generated from one catchy breakup song into performances for Saturday Night Live and Jimmy Kimmel, a 2012 Coachella slot, meme-y children’s choir covers, ARIA and J Award wins, a UK number one, the surest Hottest 100 lock ever, Ashton Kutcher endorsements, Katy Perry shout outs, Gossip Girl syncs and a film clip which currently holds more than 120 million views on Youtube. In other words…SHUT. IT. DOWN.
