"Summer Son" was the second single Texas took from The Hush, the Scottish band's fifth album, reaching Europe on 9 August 1999 and the UK a week later, right behind "In Our Lifetime". It's glossy, confident late-'90s rock, and it went to number five at home.

On the Continent it counts among their biggest hits, cracking the top five in Austria, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Switzerland and Wallonia, and it went gold in Belgium and Germany and silver in the UK. It has stayed a regular on their compilations too, from The Greatest Hits in 2000 to Texas 25 in 2015 and The Very Best of 1989–2023.
