ARIA Hall of Fame Inductees
The following were inducted into the 2007 ARIA Hall of Fame on 18 July:ARIA Presents the 2007 ARIA Hall of Fame 6 May 2007 ARIA http://www.apra.com.au/news/industry/news/070507_ARIA-HallofFame.pdf dead https://web.archive.org/web/20081219015117/http://www.apra.com.au/news/industry/news/070507_ARIA-HallofFame.pdf 19 December 2008 dmy
Frank Ifield
Hoodoo Gurus
Marcia Hines
Jo Jo Zep & The Falcons
Brian Cadd
Radio Birdman
Added to these inductees on 28 October, was:
Nick Cave
Instead of a traditional acceptance speech, Cave noted that he didn't understand why he was inducted and the Bad Seeds weren't. Due to the membership of Tomas Wylder (Switzerland), Jim Sclavunos (United States), and James Johnston (UK), the band does not qualify as Australian. In rebellion against this ruling, Cave unofficially inducted Mick Harvey, Warren Ellis, Conway Savage and Martyn P. Casey of the Bad Seeds; as well as Rowland S. Howard and Tracy Pew of the Birthday Party; "by the power vested in [him] by this award". Cave did not name Hugo Race of the Bad Seeds nor Phill Calvert of The Birthday Party, who are Australian, in his unofficial induction. He did, however, close by thanking his mother, wife and sons.

Controversy
The broadcast of the 2007 awards was controversial; it was revealed by Australian Broadcasting Corporation (ABC)'s Media Watch that Channel 10 had used subliminal advertising—which is illegal under Australian Media and Broadcasting rules—TEN disputed the finding, however their defence was also criticised by Media Watch, as demonstrating ignorance of these rules. http://www.abc.net.au/mediawatch/transcripts/s2082405.htm Flash Dance 9 March 2008 5 November 2007 Australian Broadcasting Corporation (ABC) Media Watch https://web.archive.org/web/20080322015305/http://www.abc.net.au/mediawatch/transcripts/s2082405.htm 22 March 2008 dead
