It peaked at #7 on the Australian singles chart and #2 in Switzerland, #5 in Germany, Top 20 in UK, Sweden and Netherlands, and #31 on the Billboard Mainstream Rock chart. The U.S. cover for the single has a still from the Russell Mulcahy music video for "Hey Little Girl". 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. The song has been covered by Sven Schumacher, the German metal band Atrocity, the horrorpunk band The Spook, and Kate Miller-Heidke. The group Syndicate of Sound wrote "Little Girl" which the band recorded for Hush Records in San Francisco, January 9, 1966. "Little Girl" became a regional hit after San Jose radio station KLIV latched onto it, and was released nationally and offered the group a contract for an album.
