Your Ultimate Girl Power Playlist
By Johana LMar. 8 2019, Published 5:48 p.m. ET
You can’t have an International Women’s Day without a proper playlist! If I had all the time in the world to gather all every powerful anthem on this, I would probably do it. (Help us add to it!)
Here’s some of our favorite girl power/girl pride anthems.
The Spice Girls – The Lady Is A Vamp
Nothing screams Girl Power like the Spice Girls: the ultimate girl group. Here’s some lyrics to The Lady Is A Vamp to make you feel like a mf champ.
Lyrics:
-“She’s a Bond babe, kick some ass
Doctor No, this girl’s got class
Charlie’s Angels, girls on top
Handbags, heels, their pistols rock”
“She’s a Bond babe, kick some ass
Doctor No, this girl’s got class
Charlie’s Angels, girls on top
Handbags, heels, their pistols rock”
Destiny’s Child – Independent Women
Speaking of Charlie’s Angels! Here’s a song I was obsessed with when Now 6 came out. From that moment on, I made a pact to myself that when I grew up, I would be independent like Destiny’s Child.
Lyrics:
-“The shoes on my feet, I bought it
The clothes I’m wearing, I bought it
The rock I’m rockin’, I bought it
‘Cause I depend on me, If I want itThe watch I’m wearin’, I bought it
The house I live in, I bought it
The car I’m driving, I bought it
I depend on me, I depend on me”
-“That’s the kinda girl I am
Don’t cha know I really don’t give a damn
Let me be me for me and not what I’m supposed to be
So I’m gonna do what I wanna do
Cause dumb rules are left for silly fools
That’s the kinda girl that I am”
-“Listen as your day unfolds
Challenge what the future holds
Try and keep your head up to the sky
Lovers, they may cause you tears
Go ahead release your fears”
-“This is for my girls all around the world
Who have come across a man that don’t respect your worth
Thinkin’ all women should be seen and not heard
So what do we do girls, shout out loud
Lettin ’em know were gonna stand our ground
So lift your hands high and wave ’em proud
Take a deep breath and say it loud
Never can, never will
Can’t hold us downNobody can hold us down
Never can, never will”
Superchick – One Girl Revolution
Lyrics:
-“Some people see the revolution
But most only see the girl
I can lose my hard earned freedom
If my fear defines my world
I declare my independence
From the critics and their stones
I can find my revolution
I can learn to stand alone”
-“You’ve been down before
You’ve been hurt before
You got up before
You’ll be good to go, good to go
Destiny said it, you got to get up and get it
Get mad independent and don’t you ever forget it
Got some dirt on your shoulder, then let me brush it off for ya”
-“I can cast a spell,
Of secrets you can’t tell,
Mix a special brew,
Put fire inside of you
Anytime you feel danger or fear,
Then instantly
I will appear ’cause”
