The UK Singles Chart is one of many music charts compiled by the Official Charts Company that calculates the best-selling singles of the week in the United Kingdom. Before 2004, the chart was only based on the sales of physical singles with airplay figures and digital downloads excluded from the official chart. This list shows singles that peaked in the Top 10 of the UK Singles Chart during 2001, as well as songs which peaked in 2000 and 2002 but were in the top 10 in 2001. The entry date is when the song 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).

Two-hundred and one songs were in the top ten in 2001. Ten singles from 2000 remained in the top 10 for several weeks at the beginning of the year. Sixty-eight artists scored multiple entries in the top 10 in 2001. Blue, Daniel Bedingfield, Linkin Park, Nelly Furtado and Outkast were among the many artists who achieved their first UK charting top 10 single in 2001.

The 2000 Christmas number-one, "Can We Fix It?" by Bob the Builder (voiced by Neil Morrissey and the theme song from the children's television series), remained at number-one for the first week of 2001. The first new number-one single of the year was "Touch Me" by Rui da Silva. Overall, thirty-one different songs peaked at number-one in 2001, with Atomic Kitten, Blue, Bob the Builder, Robbie Williams, S Club 7, Shaggy and Westlife (all 2) having the most songs hit that position.
