It is a homage to Robert Palmer's 1988 video for " Simply Irresistible", featuring different genders in the dancer roles instead of just women. The official music video for "Girls Chase Boys" was released on February 4, 2014. It reached number 38 on the Hot 100 Airplay (Radio Songs) chart, her first single to list on that chart. It is also her first appearance on the magazine's Pop Songs chart, debuting at number 40 and reaching number 25. This song became Michaelson's highest-charting single and biggest airplay hit since " The Way I Am" hit number 37 in 2007, peaking at number 52 on the Billboard Hot 100, as well as her highest appearance on the Adult Pop Songs chart (number 6). It was written by Ingrid Michaelson, along with Trent Dabbs and Barry Dean. We all chase each other and in the end we are all chasing after the same thing: love. The video takes that idea one step further, and attempts to turn stereotypical gender roles on their head. More than just being about my experience, its focus shifted to include the idea that, no matter who or how we love, we are all the same. "Girls Chase Boys" started out as a break-up song but took on a deeper meaning as I continued writing. Michaelson spoke about the development of the song and stated, The song peaked at number 52 on the Billboard Hot 100. " Girls Chase Boys" is the lead single from Ingrid Michaelson's sixth studio album, Lights Out.
