The singles discography of American singer Brenda Lee contains 90 as a lead artist, four as a collaborative and featured artist, nine released in foreign languages, 21 promotional singles, 19 other charting songs and two music videos (for singles and songs). Lee's debut single was released by Decca Records in 1956 called "Jambalaya (On the Bayou)". The 1957 single "One Step at a Time" was her first to make the US charts. The 1958 release of "Rockin' Around the Christmas Tree" did not chart until Lee had further charting singles in 1960. Originally the US Hot 100 top 20, it would later top the same chart 65 years later in 2023. In recent years, it has also made chart positions in several other countries.

The 1959 single "Sweet Nothin's" was Lee's first top ten recording, reaching number four in the US and the UK. The follow-up was the 1960 US and Australian top ten "That's All You Gotta Do". Its B-side titled "I'm Sorry" reached number one on the US Hot 100, number six in Australia, number two in Belgium and number 12 in the UK. "I Want to Be Wanted" was also a chart-topping US single. Between 1961 and 1963, nine of Lee's singles made top ten positions in the US. Some of them also reached the top ten in Australia, Belgium, Canada, Ireland, Norway and the UK: "Emotions", "You Can Depend on Me", "Dum Dum", "Fool No. 1", "Break It to Me Gently", "Speak to Me Pretty", "Everybody Loves Me But You", "All Alone Am I" and "Losing You".

Following 1963, Lee's singles made the top ten with less frequency. In the US, she reached the top 20 through 1966 with singles like "The Grass Is Greener", "As Usual", "Too Many Rivers" and "Coming on Strong". Many of these releases (along with several more) made the top ten on the US adult contemporary chart. The singles "As Usual", "Is It True" and "I Wonder" made the top ten in Canada and European countries. Lee's last US top 40 entry was 1967's "Ride, Ride, Ride". In 1968, she collaborated with Pete Fountain on the single "Cabaret".

During the 1970s, Lee found commercial success in the country market. The 1973 single "Nobody Wins" reached the number five position on the US Hot Country Songs chart and went to number one on the Canadian RPM Country Tracks chart. Between 1973 and 1975, all of five of Lee's singles made the top ten on the US country chart: "Sunday Sunrise", "Wrong Ideas", "Big Four Poster Bed", "Rock on Baby" and "He's My Rock". While several more releases made the country charts, they stalled in the top 40. In 1979, "Tell Me What It's Like" returned Lee to the US country top ten. It was followed in 1980 by the top ten US and Canadian country song "The Cowgirl and the Dandy". In 1981, "Broken Trust" reached the number nine position on the US country chart. Lee's singles continued to make the US country chart through 1985 and in Canada through 1991.

Holiday 100 chart entries

Since many radio stations in the US adopt a format change to Christmas music each December, many holiday hits have an annual spike in popularity during the last few weeks of the year and are retired once the season is over. [88] In December 2011, Billboard began a Holiday Songs chart with 50 positions that monitors the last five weeks of each year to "rank the top holiday hits of all eras using the same methodology as the Hot 100, blending streaming, airplay, and sales data", [89] and in 2013 the number of positions on the chart was doubled, resulting in the Holiday 100. [90] Lee's recording of "Rockin' Around the Christmas Tree" has made appearances on the Holiday 100, which are noted below according to the holiday season in which it charted there.
