It's the Girls! is the fourteenth studio album, and twenty-fifth album overall, by Bette Midler, released on November 4, 2014. It is a collection representing the music of the great girl groups of the past.[3]

The album sold 40,000 copies in its first week of release in the United States thus allowing it to reach number three on the Billboard 200. This made Midler only the second female singer after Barbra Streisand to have top 10 albums in five consecutive decades.[4] It's the Girls! also marked Midler's highest debut week sales ever, and her second-highest position in the US after the Beaches soundtrack. Another 27,000 copies of the album were sold in its second week.
