PEAK MUSIC 2013

 2013

It was very hard to break the top 10 twice this year. - At least as to what I can gather. (In the years to come that will not be the case)

Robin Thicke – YOUTUBE smash hit "Blurred Lines" which spilled over to other media (eventually promoted a lawsuit). The peak of music videos?

Eminem – 3 top ten hits including "Monster" with Rihanna

Katy Perry one number one "Roar"

Miley Cyrus one number one hit "Wrecking Ball"

Lorde one number one hit "Royals"
