The ARIA Singles Chart ranks the best-performing singles in Australia. Its data, published by the Australian Recording Industry Association, is based collectively on each single's weekly physical and digital sales.[2] In 2013, seventeen singles claimed the top spot, including "Thrift Shop" by Macklemore & Ryan Lewis, which started its peak position in late 2012.[3] Fifteen acts achieved their first number-one single in Australia, either as a lead or featured artist: Mary Lambert, Nate Ruess, Baauer, Ray Dalton, Passenger, Daft Punk, Pharrell Williams, Robin Thicke, T.I., Avicii, 2 Chainz, Redfoo, Dami Im, Taylor Henderson and John Legend.[4] Im and Henderson were the only Australian artists to achieve a number-one single.

Pharrell Williams also earned two number-one singles during the year, as a featured artist on Daft Punk's "Get Lucky" and Robin Thicke's "Blurred Lines".
