艺人介绍
小简介Christopher Cross（克里斯多夫·克罗斯）的名字大家可能不太熟悉，但是说起在90年代初曾经流行一时的"Sailing（航行）＂，大多数对流行音乐保持关注的朋友多半都能想起来这位声音柔细飘扬的歌手。专辑《航行》还让他获得了第23届（1980年）年度Grammy音乐奖的年度单曲、年度最佳歌曲、年度最佳专辑和最佳新人这四项大奖。
Sheriff 的"When I'm With You" 是 one hit wonder 的代表，那么 Christopher Cross 则是被喩为明日之星的歌手却快速殒落的例子．以同名专辑中的亚军曲"Ride Like the Wind"及冠军曲"Sailing"崛起于1980年的他，旋即在隔年以势如破竹之势拿下包括最佳新人及年度最佳歌曲(Sailing) 等5座葛莱美奖，他的事业在当年年底以"Arthur's Theme (Best That You Can Do)"得到排行3周冠军及奥斯卡最佳歌曲时达到颠峰．但之后在83年推出的专辑"Another Page"却让等待的歌迷大失所望，而"Think of Laura"即是专辑中唯一一首大家较熟悉的单曲，曾在84年2月份得到第9名的成绩，而从此以后，他就不曾再进入过Top 40排行过了...
2001年，Christopher Cross总结性的发行了一张名为"THE DEFINITIVE(SPECIAL EDITION)＂的专辑，中文名字叫"终极经典（特别限量版）＂，一共收录了19首各个时期的歌曲，让我最有回忆的Sailing也在其中。因为发行时间比较晚，Christopher Cross还在其中尝试了一些电子节奏，例如第二首"All Right＂。一些平时很少听到的歌曲也收录其中，是一张相当有收藏价值的唱片。
Christopher Cross的歌声特点在于高音区的细腻与飘逸，含蓄温柔，充满浪漫色彩，用来向MM表白是最合适不过的了！
by Jason AnkenyChristopher Cross was far and away the biggest new star of 1980, virtually defining adult contemporary radio with a series of smoothly sophisticated ballads including the chart-topping Sailing; seemingly as quickly as he shot to fame, however, his star descended, although he continued recording and touring for years to come. Born Christopher Geppert in San Antonio, TX on May 3, 1951, Cross first surfaced in the Austin-based cover band Flash before signing a solo contract with Warner Bros. in the autumn of 1978. His self-titled debut LP appeared two years later, with the lead single Ride Like the Wind rocketing to the number two spot; the massive success of the second single Sailing made Cross a superstar, and in the wake of two more Top 20 hits, Never Be the Same and Say Youll Be Mine, he walked off with a record-setting five Grammys in 1981, including Best New Artist and Song of the Year for Sailing. He soon scored a second number one as well as an Academy Award with Arthurs Theme (Best That You Can Do), which he co-wrote with Burt Bacharach, Carole Bayer Sager, and Peter Allen for the smash Dudley Moore film comedy Arthur. Cross much-anticipated sophomore effort Another Page arrived in 1983, but except for the Top Ten entry Think of Laura (popularized through its constant presence on the daytime soap phenomenon General Hospital), the album failed to repeat the success of its predecessor, and somewhat amazingly, he never returned to the Top 40 again. Every Turn of the World appeared to little notice in 1985, and when 1988s Back of My Mind failed to chart altogether, Cross was dropped by Warner. His next album, Rendezvous, did not appear until five years later on BMG. Window followed in 1995, and in 1998 he signed to CMC International for Walking in Avalon, a two-disc effort split between new studio material and live recordings of his past hits. Cross returned in the spring of 2000 with The Red Room.
