The 2013 YouTube Rewind was the fourth video release of the series. It was released on December 11, 2013 via YouTube's official channel, YouTube Spotlight. It was directed by Kai Hasson and produced by Nate Houghteling, Zach Blume, Jeffrey Sabin-Matsumoto and David Iain Johnson. It was produced by the Portal A studio. The title is a reference to Ylvis' song "The Fox (What Does the Fox Say?)", which is also the main motif of the video.
