"Mysterious Girl" is the second overall single and third British single from singer-songwriter Peter Andre's second studio album, Natural (1996). The song was written by Glen Goldsmith, Philip Jackson, Ollie Jacobs and Andre, and produced by Jacobs. The song features guest vocals from Caribbean rapper Bubbler Ranx. The song was first released as a single by Melodian Records in Australia in September 1992.[1] The song was then re-released as a single in 1995, but was not released in the United Kingdom until May 1996 due to problems regarding the administration of Andre's UK record label, Mushroom Records.

The song was originally titled "Mysterious Boy", but was changed upon the suggestion of Andre's management, whom believed it to be more commercially viable as "Mysterious Girl".

The song reached the top of the charts in New Zealand and number eight in Australia, and peaked at number two on the UK Singles Chart. Following a lengthy campaign on The Chris Moyles Show in 2004[2] and Andre's appearance on the British reality show I'm a Celebrity...Get Me Out of Here!, the song was re-released as the first single from Andre's fourth studio album, The Long Road Back, peaking at number one on February 29, 2004.[3] It hit 1 million UK sales in July 2013[4] and has sold 1.03 million as of October 2015.[5]

Music video

Filmed in Thailand, the video depicts Ranx and Andre on a beach. There are montages of several women and Peter and Bubbler dance in a lagoon shirtless and in their jeans. Peter is later seen dancing underneath a waterfall. Peter is last seen walking along the beach shirtless and later rolls in the sand as the sun sets. The video also features Thai model Champagne Inthachak.
