P.U.N.K. Girl
A 1993 Sarah single and the title song of a 1995 K Records EP.
Heavenly (1993)
It was released in 1993 as a Sarah single, "P.U.N.K. Girl" with "Hearts and Crosses" (Sarah 81), and gave its name to the K Records EP of July 11, 1995 (KLP 25), which combines the 1993 Sarah singles with a total length of 14:12. The EP's tracks are "P.U.N.K. Girl" (2:55), "Hearts & Crosses" (4:00), "Atta Girl" (4:01), "Dig Your Own Grave" (2:07) and "So?" (1:09), with Amelia Fletcher on guitar and vocals, Mathew Fletcher on drums, Momtchiloff on guitar, Pursey on bass, Rogers on keyboards and vocals and Ian Shaw engineering. AllMusic's Mike DaRonco gave the EP 4 of 5, Christgau an A-minus and the New Rolling Stone Album Guide 4. A search summary credits the writing to Fletcher, Pursey and Mathew Fletcher, unconfirmed. It is an acronym song, each letter standing for a feeling about a girl, again from a search summary, with no band statement.
Bandcamp Daily dates the revival to TikTok, where Pursey's daughter saw the song and assumed her parents had planted it; Pursey said they had no idea. Adrian Goldberg's 2026 interview has Fletcher crediting TikTok and Spotify success to chance, and Skep Wax sells a P.U.N.K. Girl T-shirt. We found no covers, samples, video or setlist data.
