Thom Pace

Thom Pace (born Thomas M. Pace, 1949, Boise, Idaho, Idaho) wrote the song "Maybe," which started out as a medley titled "Wear The Sun In Your Heart/Maybe." This song became the theme song of the Sunn Classic Pictures And Television film and TV series, The Life And Times Of Grizzly Adams. The program starred Dan Haggerty as James Capen Adams, who had fled from false murder charges into the mountains and forest nearby. The made-for-television film The Capture Of Grizzly Adams, which starred Haggerty and also featured "Maybe" as its theme, finally showed Adams successfully clearing his name.

Pace had originally intended the song "Maybe" for a movie called The Snow Tigers, but ultimately the producers did not use it in that film. It was later used as the last song in the Grizzly Adams movie, and was then used as the theme song in the TV series.

Another version, the theme from an album that Pace recorded and released in the 1970s, was released as a single in Europe. "Maybe" went to number one in Germany and stayed there for nine weeks. Pace received the "Goldene Europa" Award, Europe's version of the Grammy Award for Best Song of 1979. He also wrote and composed, often in collaboration with Maria Hegsted, songs for other films including the NBC 'Movies of the Week', Vestige Of Honor and Night Of The Comet.

Pace continues to remain involved with music, and he now lives in North Idaho. He is usually regarded as a one-hit wonder.
