"Too Young" is a song by all-female German pop band Queensberry. It was written by Swedish composer Eric Palmqvist and recorded for the deluxe edition of the group's debut studio album Volume I (2008). Production on the track was helmed by Erik "Kid Crazy" Nyholm and Pete Kirtley. A melancholic uptempo pop song, it is built upon 1980s synthesizer sounds. Lyrically, "Too Young" has the protagonist wondering whether her broken but still longed-for relationship fell apart because of their naivety and youth.
The song was released by Starwatch Music as the band's second single on 22 May 2008. It became their first top ten hit on the German Singles Chart and ranks among the band's highest-charting singles: It peaked at number five in Germany and reached the top 20 in Austria and the top 40 in Switzerland. In support of the single, Queensberry flew to Miami, Florida to film a music video for the track with director Markus Gerwinat. "Too Young" was later also included on Queensberry's second studio album On My Own (2009).
