"Girls of Summer" was the lone single off O, Yeah! Ultimate Aerosmith Hits, the band's 2002 greatest-hits set. Singer Steven Tyler and guitarist Joe Perry wrote it in Hawaii with pro songwriter Marti Frederiksen once the Just Push Play Tour had wrapped, and Tyler is credited as producer.
For a new song tucked onto a hits package, it did plenty of work. It climbed to No. 25 on Billboard's Mainstream Rock Tracks chart, picked up a 2003 Grammy nomination for Best Rock Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocal, and lent its name to the band's tour through the second half of 2002, with Kid Rock and Run-DMC opening the shows.
