# List of UK top-ten albums in 2013

The UK Albums Chart is one of many music charts compiled by the Official Charts Company that calculates the best-selling albums of the week in the United Kingdom. Since 2004 the chart has been based on the sales of both physical albums and digital downloads. This list shows albums that peaked in the Top 10 of the UK Albums Chart during 2013, as well as albums which peaked in 2012 and 2014 but were in the top 10 in 2013. The entry date is when the album appeared in the top 10 for the first time (week ending, as published by the Official Charts Company, which is six days after the chart is announced).
One-hundred and seventy-two albums were in the top ten this year. One album from 2011 and seventeen albums from 2012 remained in the top 10 for several weeks at the beginning of the year, while Beyoncé by Beyoncé was released in 2013 but did not reach its peak until 2014. Halcyon by Ellie Goulding debuted in 2012 and re-entered the top 10 in 2013, but its peak position was not until 2014. Six artists scored multiple entries in the top 10 in 2013. The 1975, Bastille, Frank Turner, James Arthur and Kodaline were among the many artists who achieved their first UK charting top 10 album in 2013.
18 Months by Calvin Harris returned to the top spot in the first week of 2013. The first new number-one album of the year was Les Misérables: Highlights from the Motion Picture Soundtrack by the Les Misérables cast. Overall, thirty-five different albums peaked at number-one in 2013, with thirty-five unique artists hitting that position.

## Background
### Multiple entries

One-hundred and seventy-two albums charted in the top 10 in 2013, with one-hundred and fifty-two albums reaching their peak this year (including The Complete Greatest Hits which charted in previous years but reached a peak on its latest chart run).
Six artists scored multiple entries in the top 10 in 2013. Andrea Bocelli, Jake Bugg, Justin Timberlake, Michael Bublé, One Direction and Robbie Williams were the acts who had two top 10 albums this year. Andrea Bocelli and Justin Timberlake's two entries were both released this year, with Christmas by Michael Bublé returning after making the top ten before.

Forty-six artists achieved their first top 10 album in 2013 as a lead artist.
