And Listmeister, on BEA we do have a few exceptions to tracks released last year counting as '2013', but not that one 😕 Sorry.

Not a big deal or anything though 😜

Albums, I track by release date. But I've been tracking singles for a lot longer than I've been on BEA, and that's always been my rule. It makes it easier to cross-check with reference books.

But, if you insist,

11. Arcade Fire - Reflektor

It peaked on April 6, 2013 at #35. Following Joel Whitburn and Fred Bronson, that makes it a 2013 song.

But it was released in August last year. Who cares when it peaks? What about the Michael Jackson songs that went to number one after his death? Or how about Killing in the Name reaching number one in 2009?
