Helen Reddy 1942年 於澳洲Melbourne 出生﹐生長在一個音樂世家﹐
自小已常作歌唱演出﹐後來移居美國﹐1966年打進美國展開她的歌唱事業，
曾以Ain't No Way To Treat A Lady 這首歌獲得 葛萊美音樂獎「最佳流行女藝人」，
並榮登美國成人抒情榜冠軍，這首歌亦作為她歌唱生涯的代表作。
除此之外她還為眾多電影演唱過主題曲，電影《萬世巨 星》插曲I Don't Know How To Love Him Helen Reddy
（我不知道如何愛他）,Yvonne Elliman是電影插曲的原唱( 她也有參與演出)，Helen Reddy是翻唱的；
但Helen版本得到流行榜 13名，更勝原唱的 28名；許多人因此誤以為她是原唱了。You're my World...等。
相信很多樂迷都不會忘記﹐特別是她那張女權主義味道的單曲 I Am Woman。
1971年首張單曲「I Don’t Know How To Love Him」推出後，
演唱生涯便一帆風順的Helen Reddy
是第一位同年有三首歌得到榜首，
也是第一個榮獲葛萊美獎肯定的澳州歌手。
「I Am Woman」這首婦女運動名曲，
1972年的冠軍歌曲﹐充份表達出70年代美國女權主義。
歌詞中不難發現美國70年代日益高漲的女權主義，
也是1972年讓Helen Reddy得到生平第一個Billboard排行冠軍的創作。
I don't know how to love him
What to do, how to move him
I've been changed, yes really changed
In these past few days
When I've seen myself
I seem like someone else
I don't know how to take this
I don't see why he moved me
He's a man, he just a man
And I've had so many men before in very many ways
He's just one more
Should I bring him down
Should I scream and shout
Should I speak of love
Let my feeling out
I never thought I'd come to this
What's it all about
Don't you think it's rather funny
I should be in this position
I'm the one who's always been so calm so cool
No lover's fool, running every show
He scares me so
Yet if he said he loved me
I'd be lost, I'd be frightened
I couldn't cope, just couldn't cope
I'd turn my head, I'd back away
I wouldn't want to know
還真不曉得 這首 I don't know how to love him 是唱給 耶穌 聽的
我因為熟齡了~所以我一直都知道它是在對耶穌訴說~
因為這首是當年電影"萬世巨星"裡的插曲~相當受到大眾的喜愛~
