** Patti and Creator/RobertMapplethorpe. They were TheMuse for each other and felt they were soulmates. Those photos on her album covers? All taken by him, up to ''Dream of Life'', taken about a year before he died of AIDS.
** Smith's romantic relationship with Music/BlueOysterCult keyboardist Allen Lanier lead to her writing a number of songs for the group, beginning in 1972 with ''Baby Ice Dog'' on the album ''Music/TyrannyAndMutation'', ultimately performing backing vocals on a few songs. Additionally, Lanier played keyboards on her songs "Elegie", "Kimberly", and "Space Monkey".
** Her song ''Fire of Unknown Origin'' was not only recorded by the BOC, it became the title of the LP. Some fifteen or sixteen BOC songs were wholly or partly composed by Patti.

* TheMuse:
** Patti may have been the life-model for "Suzie", the character who steps in and out of many Music/BlueOysterCult songs, as a fiery, independently-minded strong woman answerable to nobody who takes no shit from anyone.
** She also inspired the {{Music/KT Tunstall}} song ''Suddenly I See'', which is dedicated to her.
** Creator/GrantMorrison has stated she's the visual inspiration for ComicBook/DoomPatrol's Crazy Jane.
* OneHitWonder: Like {{Music/Devo}}, despite her long, acclaimed career, she's only had one real hit: "Because the Night" from ''Music/{{Easter}}''. The fact that it was co-written with Music/BruceSpringsteen might have something to do with it.

* RefrainFromAssuming: The "[[AlbumTitleDrop Horses! Horses! Horses! Horses!]]" song on ''Horses'' is actually called "Land." To further confuse matters, the song "Distant Fingers" on ''Music/RadioEthiopia'' has the chorus "Land, land, land." It's about [[InterspeciesRomance having romance with an alien]] and [[StayWithTheAliens leaving with him in his spaceship]].
--> ''All my earthly dreams are shattered/ I'm so tired, I quit/ Take me forever, it doesn't matter/ Deep inside of your ship.''

* TheWoobie: For a spell in 1994, when the poor woman lost her husband, brother and long-time keyboardist all within a few months. Allen Lanier's death in 2013 saw her reunite with the Music/BlueOysterCult for several gigs. As Allen knew the end was coming, this was the last time they were to work together, and both knew it.

* ValuesDissonance: Her use of the N-word in that one song may have been well-intentioned, but in today's more politically charged atmosphere it's less likely that people would accept a white woman using racist slurs, particularly one directed at Music/JimiHendrix.

* EnsembleDarkhorse: Lenny Kaye and Jay Dee Daugherty, Patti's lead guitarist and drummer respectively. They've appeared on all (all but one in Kaye's case) of her albums and still continue to perform live with her to this day. Patti herself would tell you that they've been vital to her music for her entire career.
