“American Girl” is the second single from Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers' self-titled debut album. The single did not chart in the U.S., but in the UK it peaked at #40 the week ending August 27, 1977.
The supercharged riff set the template for decades of Petty hits, but it was also a homage to the Byrds: Petty and Mike Campbell’s twin guitars mirrored Roger McGuinn’s 12-string, infusing the folk-rock sounds of the 1960s with New Wave energy."
This song was memorably included in the opening scene of Jonathan Demme’s 1991 The Silence of the Lambs . In the scene, Brooke Smith as Catherine Martin jams out in her car before being abruptly abducted by cannibalistic killer “Buffalo Bill.” Smith later told Huffington Post that she originally wanted a different song, but Demme wanted “American Girl” or “Tell Me Something Good.”
I think he always had it in his mind because the only songs that I remember him talking about were those two. And ‘American Girl’ was the one he really wanted. I just didn’t feel like the quintessential American girl. I guess I still don’t. I felt too much like an outsider."
The song experienced a resurgence in popularity after the film, despite not charting upon its original release.
