"I wrote ['Fight Song'] when I was going through a really hard time," Rachel told The 20 host Shannon Coffey. "I needed a reminder, and I needed this declaration. ... It was my fight song."

In the sneak from this weekend's coming The 20 episode, Rachel also reveals to Shannon the three things she needs to bring on tour with her, as well as what being our featured You Oughta Know artist means to her.
