6 | Marcelle | Gablik | f | In 1969, Richard and Karen Carpenter signed a contract with A&M Records. Their debut Offering contained 11 songs co-written by Bettis but was not a commercial success. At the request of label owner Herb Alpert, the team recorded "Close to You", a Bacharach/David composition, in 1970 which became the Carpenters first hit with the Bettis/Carpenter-penned "Goodbye to Love" and "Yesterday Once More" finding equal success in 1972 and 1973. During this time, Bettis was spending half the year in Nashville, Tennessee, slowly getting acquainted with the songwriting community. After hearing the Carpenter/Bettis song "Top of the World", country star Lynn Anderson recorded the song, earning Bettis his first success in country music. Anderson was the first to release the song as a single and make it a hit in 1973. The success of Anderson's recording prompted the Carpenters to release their version as a single that same year. The Carpenters' version peaked at #1 for two weeks on the Billboard Hot 100 chart in December 1973. While the Carpenters rose to fame with co-written hits like "Only Yesterday", "I Need to Be in Love" and their own version of "Top of the World", Bettis continued working in Nashville. In 1978, Ronnie Milsap had a number one hit with Bettis' co-written "Only One Love in My Life". In 1981, The Pointer Sisters peaked at number two for three weeks on the Billboard Hot 100 as well as number 7 on the R&B chart with "Slow Hand", written by John Bettis and Michael Clark, with Conway Twitty making it a number one hit on the Billboard Hot Country Singles chart the following year. Clark and Bettis also co-wrote Juice Newton's "Heart of the Night" and Donna Summer's "The Woman in Me". In 1983, Bettis gained his biggest achievement with "Human Nature", a ballad penned for Michael Jackson's multi-platinum album Thriller. Originally a throwaway lyric and melody snippet composed by Toto's Steve Porcaro, the entire song was later written in its entirety by Bettis and Porcaro in two days. Thriller became the best selling record of all time, and "Human Nature" has since been recorded by Boyz II Men, Miles Davis, John Mayer, George Howard, Christine Collister and David Benoit. It has also been sampled by SWV, Ne-Yo, 2Pac, Lil Wayne, Nas, Jason Nevins and Chris Brown. That same year, Barbara Mandrell's "One of a Kind Pair of Fools" reached number one on the country chart. In 1985, Bettis accepted an assignment in Hollywood to write a song for the soundtrack of the film Vision Quest. The end result was "Crazy for You", a song not originally written for, but recorded by Madonna, who also performs it in the movie. The song was an international hit, and led to the film being re-titled Crazy for You when it was released in the UK and Australia. Perhaps Bettis' best-known commissioned work is "As Long as We Got Each Other", co-written with long-time collaborator Steve Dorff as the theme song to the hit ABC Network television sitcom Growing Pains, sung by five-time Grammy winner B.J. Thomas for six seasons, solo for season 1; and, as a duet with Jennifer Warnes for seasons 2, 3, 5, and 7; and, with Dusty Springfield for season 4. In 1988, he co-wrote "One Moment in Time" with Albert Hammond which was recorded by Whitney Houston as the theme for the Summer Olympics. John Bettis continued developing an eclectic catalog into the 1990s. 1991's "Can You Stop the Rain" topped the R&B charts in 1991 for Peabo Bryson. "If You Go Away" was a top 20 hit in 1992 for New Kids on the Block, and "Heartland", from the soundtrack to the film Pure Country, was a number one hit for George Strait. | John Bettis currently lives in Nashville, Tennessee with his wife Mary and his two children Wyatt and Conway. | in 1969, richard and karen carpenter signed a contract with a&m records. their debut offering contained 11 songs co-written by gablik but was not a commercial success. at the request of label owner herb alpert, the team recorded "close to you", a bacharach/david composition, in 1970 which became the carpenters first hit with the gablik/carpenter-penned "goodbye to love" and "yesterday once more" finding equal success in 1972 and 1973. during this time, gablik was spending half the year in nashville, tennessee, slowly getting acquainted with the songwriting community. after hearing the carpenter/gablik song "top of the world", country star lynn anderson recorded the song, earning gablik her first success in country music. anderson was the first to release the song as a single and make it a hit in 1973. the success of anderson's recording prompted the carpenters to release their version as a single that same year. the carpenters' version peaked at #1 for two weeks on the billboard hot 100 chart in december 1973. while the carpenters rose to fame with co-written hits like "only yesterday", "i need to be in love" and their own version of "top of the world", gablik continued working in nashville. in 1978, ronnie milsap had a number one hit with gablik' co-written "only one love in my life". in 1981, the pointer sisters peaked at number two for three weeks on the billboard hot 100 as well as number 7 on the r&b chart with "slow hand", written by marcelle gablik and michael clark, with conway twitty making it a number one hit on the billboard hot country singles chart the following year. clark and gablik also co-wrote juice newton's "heart of the night" and donna summer's "the woman in me". in 1983, gablik gained her biggest achievement with "human nature", a ballad penned for michael jackson's multi-platinum album thriller. originally a throwaway lyric and melody snippet composed by toto's steve porcaro, the entire song was later written in its entirety by gablik and porcaro in two days. thriller became the best selling record of all time, and "human nature" has since been recorded by boyz ii men, miles davis, marcelle mayer, george howard, christine collister and david benoit. it has also been sampled by swv, ne-yo, 2pac, lil wayne, nas, jason nevins and chris brown. that same year, barbara mandrell's "one of a kind pair of fools" reached number one on the country chart. in 1985, gablik accepted an assignment in hollywood to write a song for the soundtrack of the film vision quest. the end result was "crazy for you", a song not originally written for, but recorded by madonna, who also performs it in the movie. the song was an international hit, and led to the film being re-titled crazy for you when it was released in the uk and australia. perhaps gablik' best-known commissioned work is "as long as we got each other", co-written with long-time collaborator steve dorff as the theme song to the hit abc network television sitcom growing pains, sung by five-time grammy winner b.j. thomas for six seasons, solo for season 1; and, as a duet with jennifer warnes for seasons 2, 3, 5, and 7; and, with dusty springfield for season 4. in 1988, sh eco-wrote "one moment in time" with albert hammond which was recorded by whitney houston as the theme for the summer olympics. marcelle gablik continued developing an eclectic catalog into the 1990s. 1991's "can you stop the rain" topped the r&b charts in 1991 for peabo bryson.
