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. This list shows singles that peaked in the Top 10 of the UK Singles Chart during 2004, as well as songs which peaked in 2003 but were in the top 10 in 2004. 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 six songs were in the top ten in 2004. Ten singles from 2003 remained in the top 10 for several weeks at the beginning of the year.Hey Ya! by American hip hop duo Outkast, was the only song from 2003 to reach its peak in 2004, reaching number three on 14 February 2004 having entered the top 10 on 22 November 2003. Sixty-three artists scored multiple entries in the top 10 in 2004.

The 2003 Christmas number-one, "Mad World" by Michael Andrews featuring Gary Jules (which was recorded for the 2001 film Donnie Darko), remained at number-one for the first week of 2004. The first new number-one single of the year was "All This Time" by 2003 Pop Idol winner Michelle McManus. The release sent McManus into the Guinness Book of Records as the first Scottish female to reach the top of the charts with their debut single. Overall, thirty different songs peaked at number-one in 2004, with Busted (3) having the most songs (including their appearance on Band Aid 20's "Do They Know It's Christmas?") hit that position.
