This contribution summarizes the main experimental results presented at the 2009 Quark Matter conference concerning single and dilepton production in proton and heavy ion collisions at high energy. The dilepton invariant mass spectrum has been measured over a range that extends from the $\pi^0$ mass to the $\Upsilon$ mass, and for various collision energies at SPS, Fermilab, Hera and RHIC. This paper focuses on the various contributions (photons, low mass vector mesons, open and hidden heavy flavors) to this spectrum and discuss their implications on our understanding of the matter formed in heavy ion collisions.
