** As of 2011, Smith has added a cover of "[[Adele|Rolling in the Deep]]" to her live setlist.
** Also her whole [[Cover Album]] ''Twelve'', which includes [[Rolling Stones|"Gimme Shelter"]], [[Nirvana|"Smells Like Teen Spirit"]], [[Jimi Hendrix|"Are You Experienced?"]], [[The Doors|"Soul Kitchen"]], [[Bob Dylan|"Changing of the Guards"]], [[The Beatles|"Within You Without You"]], [[Tears for Fears|"Everybody Wants to Rule the World"]] (really), [[REM|"Everybody Hurts"]], [[Paul Simon|"The Boy in the Bubble"]], and so on.
* [[Creator Couple]]: Smith's romantic relationship with [[Blue OysterÖyster Cult (Music)|Blue Oyster Cult]] keyboardist Allen Lanier lead to her writing a number of songs for the group, and performing backing vocals on a few songs. Additionally, Lanier played keyboards on her song "Space Monkey".
* [[Epic Rocking]]: Most of her albums have at least one song pushing 10 minutes, frequently based around her poetry.
* [[Fan Nickname]]: "The Godmother of Punk".
* [[Grief Song]]: Much of her mid-90s material, after both her husband, her brother, and one of her band members died almost at the same time.
* [[Lady Looks Like a Dude]]
* [[Les Yay]]: Smith's cover of "Gloria" is about a female-on-female one night stand. "Debbie Denise", a song she wrote for [[Blue OysterÖyster Cult (Music)|Blue Oyster Cult]], was similarly about her female lover, though it underwent a [[The Cover Changes the Gender|sex-change]] when BOC performed it.
* [[Incoming Ham]]: [[Crowning Music of Awesome|Arguably]] the opening lines of the opening song on her debut album.
