One Moment In Time

One Moment in Time is a nostalgic song penned by John Bettis and Albert Hammond for the Summer Olympics in Seoul, South Korea, 1988. It was later produced by the talented producer Narada Michael Walden. Arista Records released it on 27 August, 1988. The song was Houston's third UK number one single, and it also peaked at number 5 on Billboard Hot 100.

The main chorus of One Moment In Time was influenced by the enduring presence of Elvis Presley; Hammond envisioned it being performed by him during the ceremony of the Olympics. It was included on the 1988 Summer Games Discography: One Moment in Time, which was released in connection with NBC Sports' broadcast of the Seoul tournaments. The album, besides Whitney Houston, also included other popular artists such as The Bee Gees, The Four Tops, Taylor Dayne, Eric Carmen, and filmmaker John Williams.

One Moment In Time is an ode for believing in oneself. With such a powerful message, it is no surprise that the song still resonates with many listeners even to this day.
