"Girls" (stylised as "girl$") is a song by Australian record producer Dom Dolla, featuring uncredited vocals by Caitlin Stubbs and released on 7 June 2024.[1][2]

About the track, Dom Dolla said that the song is inspired from a conversation he had with his friends who had experienced of bad dates. Dolla said "I recorded it and heavily affected my vocals, but felt it needed a strong female performance, so I reached out to my good pal Caitlin Stubbs and asked if she was keen to re-perform the vocal, her voice is fantastic and suits the record so well… I even left some crumbs of my vocal in there, too."[2][1]
