"Hey Little Girl" is a single released by Australian band Icehouse, the second single from the band's 1982 album, Primitive Man.[1] The album and single were co-produced by band member and the track's writer, Iva Davies, and Keith Forsey.[1][2] It was released in November 1982[3] on Regular Records in 7" vinyl single and 12" vinyl single formats. UK and Europe releases by Chrysalis Records were also on 7" and 12" formats, but with different track listings. The single was then released in the US in 1983 on the same formats. On "Hey Little Girl", Iva Davies uses the Linn drum machine—the first for an Australian recording.[4] It peaked at No. 7 on the Australian singles chart[5] and No. 2 in Switzerland,[6] No. 5 in Germany,[7] Top 20 in UK,[8] Sweden[9] and Netherlands,[10] and No. 31 on the Billboard Mainstream Rock chart.[11]

The US cover for the single has a still from the Russell Mulcahy music video for "Hey Little Girl".[4][12][13]

In 1997, a series of re-mixes of the song was released in Germany on the Edel Music label. Another remix version by Infusion was released on the Icehouse album Meltdown in 2002.[14]
