Kris Kristofferson: A Country Music Icon

Kris Kristofferson is a name that is identified with country music and it isn’t an overstatement to say he forever changed the genre, and the world. He was also a gifted lyricist with that particular voice and country manners that held the public’s attention for much of his time.

A Songwriter's Legacy

Kristofferson sharply distinguished himself from other musicians and songwriters of his time by focusing on important subjects and using poetry as well as plain truth. To be precise, his songs touched on issues such as love, loss, and what it means to be an American. Songs such as “Me and Bobby McGee”, “Sunday Mornin’ Comin’ Down”, “Help Me Make It Through the Night” became hymns of the their generations. What might be most remembered about him was his participation in the outlaw country musical genre. Known alongside such stars as Johnny Cash, Waylon Jennings, and Willie Nelson, he strived for revolutionizing the pleasant and polished country music of Nashville for the unplanned, rebellious sound.

A Versatile Performer

Besides songwriting Kraistofferson was a good singer and a performer too. His voice was unique having a deep resonance that gave his songs some intensity. Sometimes he danced with certain uncertainties and did so with the rawness that people could naturally understand. Kristofferson also had a good run in acting with movies and acting in television series. He had a macho look, and he was very passionate which made him suitable for stagey characters that demanded a powerful on-screen personality.

A Lasting Impact

It is however very shocking to find that Kris Kristofferson was an incomparable influence in the world of country music and in the general popular culture. His songs remain to be sung and appreciated by artistes right from pop to country to hip hop and even metal. He defined music in the 20th century and it is safe to say that his work and influence will last a lifetime and beyond.
