Win with Coast’s $100,000 Feel Good 500 Countdown 2021

Thank you for choosing such great Feel Good favourites. You voted in your thousands! In fact, we've had our largest number of votes ever this year, which made for an epic countdown.

We hope you loved counting down the Coast Feel Good 500 with us as much as we enjoyed playing it for you. It was a fantastic week of brilliant music.

The ground-breaking 'Bohemian Rhapsody' by British supergroup Queen reclaimed the top spot on Coast’s 2021 Feel Good 500. 'Bohemian Rhapsody' returned to number one, last held in 2019 after being beaten in 2020 by the Patea Māori Club’s 'Poi E.'

Last year’s winner, the Pātea Māori Club, switched with Queen to take number two with 'Poi E.'

Rounding out the top 5 were Pharrell Williams at number three with 'Happy' from the movie Despicable Me 2. Number four went to the Eagles with 'Hotel California' and number five 'Walking On Sunshine' from Katrina & the Waves.

Coast’s Feel Good Breakfast host Toni Street said: "It’s was great to see New Zealand’s favourite band Queen regain number one. I was happy that my pick Adele’s 'Hello' made it into the top ten at number nine."

We'd also like to congratulate Luana Coulan who voted for Pātea Māori Club’s 'Poi E' and won $5,000 Coast cash!
