"Young Girl" was a song performed by Gary Puckett & The Union Gap released in 1968. Although it wasn't a #1 hit on Billboard (Puckett being an American artist), reaching #2 on the Billboard Hot 100, it reached #1 on the UK Singles chart and Cash Box.
In the UK, the recording enjoyed a second chart run in 1974, when it peaked at #6.
Danny Tanner sang this song in an episode of Full House.
A part of the Chorus of "Young Girl" was sampled on Plan B's song "Charmaine". Both "Young Girl" and "Charmaine" are about forbidden, underage love (note the lyrics "Young Girl, get out of my mind / My love for you is way out of line").
In the early 1980s, Gary Glitter expressed an interest in doing a cover version of the song in a radio interview with John Peel however this never came to fruition.
