Bruno Mars beams in a Billboard promo shoot.

Bruno Mars thrilled his fans when he performed a new song called ‘Young Girls’ during his stint as a featured performer and host of ‘Saturday Night Live’. Now, the studio recording of the song has been released and it is even better than his live showing.

‘Young Girls’ is the opening song on  Mars’ upcoming ‘Unorthodox Jukebox’ album; just one spot before the current single off the record, ‘Locked Out of Heaven’. Click here to see the full track list of the set and listen to ‘Young Girls’ below:

Despite a clear similarity between the melody in chorus of this song and that of Aerosmith’s ‘Jaded’, ‘Young Girls’ is a great song that shows off Mars’ skill as a writer and as a singer. In fact, this would be a great followup to ‘Locked Out of Heaven’ but knowing him, he probably has an even stronger song waiting to be released.
