Aerosmith shocked fans all around the world in 2025 by announcing – and within a few weeks, releasing – a collaborative EP with alternative superstar Yungblud. The rock band had previously canceled all live performances due to Steven Tyler’s vocal cord injuries, and it seemed like the band might be finished. After Ozzy Osbourne’s death in July, Aerosmith took part in a tribute to the late rocker at the MTV Video Music Awards. That’s where the group first collaborated with Yungblud, and a special relationship began.
Months after the joint One More Time EP hit No. 1 in the United Kingdom, Aerosmith and Yungblud score a new bestselling song on a pair of tallies with one of the most popular tunes featured on the short project.
“Wild Woman” Becomes a New Hit for Aerosmith and Yungblud
“Wild Woman,” which credits both Aerosmith and Yungblud, debuts on a pair of rosters across the Atlantic. This frame, the cut launches at No. 75 on the Official Singles Downloads chart and breaks onto the Official Singles Sales list, which is not specific to any one format, at No. 85.
Aerosmith Scores Another Career Bestseller
Aerosmith earns a fourth hit on both rankings as “Wild Woman” debuts. The collaborative cut brings the Grammy-winning troupe to a new low point, as it’s the first song from Aerosmith to miss the top 40 on the Official Singles Downloads chart, and one of only two – in addition to “I Don’t Want to Miss a Thing,” which peaked at No. 61 – to land in the lower half of the Official Singles Sales ranking.
Half of Aerosmith’s Bestselling Songs Come from One EP
Half of all of Aerosmith’s career hits on both the Official Singles Sales and Official Singles Downloads charts come from the One More Time EP. In October 2025, lead single “My Only Angel” reached No. 9 on the downloads roster and settled just a few spaces beneath the top 10, at No. 12, on the Official Singles Sales roster.
Yungblud Lands Another Hit in His Home Country
Yungblud, meanwhile, scores his eighteenth career hit on the Official Singles Downloads chart. He’s up to just one more win on the general sales ranking.

2026 is just beginning, but Yungblud is already off to a fantastic start as “Wild Woman” becomes a bestseller in his home country. The rocker is hoping to score his first Grammy, as he is currently nominated for three honors: Best Rock Performance, Best Rock Song, and Best Rock Album for “Changes,” “Zombie,” and Idols, respectively.
Last year was also a major moment for Yungblud, especially on the U.K. charts. He added more than half a dozen new wins to his totals on the two rosters where “Wild Woman” debuts this time around. That includes a No. 1 with “Changes,” a tribute to Osbourne, which also credits Nuno Bettencourt and Frank Bello. Several solo cuts, such as “Hello Heaven, Hello,” “Lovesick Lullaby,” and the Grammy-nominated “Zombie,” also became powerful sellers, if only for a short time.
One More Time EP Returns as “Wild Woman” Debuts
The current success of “Wild Woman” propels the collaborative One More Time EP back onto the Official Album Downloads chart, where it settles at No. 89. The same collection lifts a single spot to No. 27 on the Official Rock and Metal Albums list, as fans across the U.K. purchase the tune “Wild Woman” in large enough numbers to turn it into a smash.
