小简介
Help Me Make It Through The Night这首歌被具有“叛逆个性”的美国乡村音乐“女英雄”Sammi Smith唱红，它一度成为美国乡村排行榜的冠军，Sammi Smith也借此获得了美国葛莱美奖年度“最佳乡村女歌手”奖，以及CMA的“年度最佳单曲”。
In the tradition of Waylon Jennings and Willie Nelson, singer/songwriter Sammi Smith was considered a country music outlaw, unafraid to sing songs that reflected the sometimes gritty realities of modern life. She first came to fame singing Kris Kristoffersons Help Me Make It Through the Night and was noted for her husky voice, the result of spending many years singing in smoke-filled clubs.
She was born Jewel Fay Smith in California, but spent her childhood living in different southwestern states. At age 11, Smith dropped out of school and the following year began singing professionally in clubs. She married at age 15 and produced four children. At songwriter Gene Sullivans urging, a newly-divorced Smith moved to Nashville in 1967. A year later she had her first minor hit, So Long, Charlie Brown, Dont Look for Me Around. In 1970, she had another minor hit, but it was not until the end of the year that she had her first major smash with Help Me Make It Through the Night, which made it to the top of the country charts and also became a Top Ten pop hit. Later that year, she wrote Cedartown, Georgia, which became a major hit for Waylon Jennings.
In 1973, Smith moved to Dallas to join Jennings and Willie Nelson and become an outlaw. Through 1975, she had several hits including Then You Walk In and Today I Started Loving You Again. She moved to Elektra in 1975 and remained with them for three years. During that time, she had several chart entries with such songs as Loving Arms, Days That End in Y (both 1977) and Norma Jean (1978), a tribute to Marilyn Monroe. In 1979, she signed to the independent label Cyclone and had a Top 20 hit with What a Lie, In 1980, she moved to Sound Factory and had one Top 40 and two Top 20 hits including I Cry When Im Alone. Her last hit came in 1986 with Love Me All Over.
