"Youth Gone Wild" is the debut single from American heavy metal band Skid Row's debut album.
The song's music video received heavy airplay on MTV; however, as a single it only reached #99 on the US Billboard Hot 100 and reached #27 on the Mainstream Rock Tracks.
The song was re-released as a single in 1992, with a live recording of "Delivering the Goods" (from the band's B-Side Ourselves EP) as the B-side; it charted again at #22 on the UK Singles chart.[5]
