Billboard’s Top 5 Songs of the Summer in 2013 | Billboard News

Billboard looks back and counts down the top five songs that ruled the summer of 2013.

Rania Aniftos:
Here we are — 2013! Ten years ago, when Miley Cyrus offended some people for twerking, but that didn’t stop her from twerking her way into the top five hits of the summer. More on that later, but let’s start off with the No. 5 song: Macklemore and Ryan Lewis featuring Ray Dalton start us off with “Can’t Hold Us.”

The No. 4 song belongs to the queen of 2013 twerking, Miley Cyrus. Her song “We Can’t Stop” had us feeling invincible in 2013.

Our No. 3 song won Record of the Year at the Grammys. Daft Punk’s “Get Lucky” featuring Pharrell Williams had us getting our funk on.

Imagine Dragons had us head banging in the heat to their hit “Radioactive,” which comes in at No. 2 on our summer songs of 2013.

Pharrell Williams was killing it in 2013. Despite the legal issues around our No. 1 song, it was a huge hit. “Blurred Lines” by Robin Thicke featuring T.I. and Pharrell was our favorite song of the summer.

Come back next week for more summer fun as we dive into 2014.
