Bikini Kill frontwoman Kathleen Hannah has an interesting explanation for the creation of "Rebel Girl," telling Yahoo News, "I feel like I didn't really write it. We were living in D.C. at the time and there was a lot of activism happening, and it just kind of learned itself. I feel like it's something that very much belongs to all of my punk friends who were hanging out at that time."
She said something similar to NPR, telling them that even though she and her bandmates weren't getting along at the time, there was so much inspiration from various women "it was really like I just stuck my hand up in the air and there it was. I don't really feel like I can take credit for writing it — I feel like it just kind of wrote itself."
And that's just the beginning of the interesting details that went into this iconic punk anthem's creation.
