Top 10 Singles Sales Weeks of 2013, take 2

SINGLES GOING STEADILY: Remember when we only talked about album sales and singles were products of a bygone era? We kind of remember it, but we were drinking a lot of cough syrup back then. Holla! Anyway, the singles market is booming nowadays, so we thought we'd take a look at 2013's biggest sales weeks for the top tracks. And thus was a Rumor Mill item born.

Macklemore is the undisputed champ here—and ruled the roost in eight weeks of Q1—but Robin Thicke's "Blurred Lines" just had the fourth-best week of the year for a single, and is thus far the year's top one-week seller that isn't "Thrift Shop." (6/20p)
