===Second album=== Cross's second album, ''[[Another Page]]'' (1983), produced "[[All Right]]", "No Time for Talk", and "[[Think of Laura]]". "All Right" was used by [[CBS Sports]] for its highlights montage following the [[1983 NCAA Division I men's basketball tournament]], while "Think of Laura" is used as a reference to characters on the soap opera ''[[General Hospital]]''. Against his wishes [[American Broadcasting Company|ABC]] used his song in this context; however, he has stated that he wrote "Think of Laura" not in reference to the television characters, but to celebrate the life of [[Denison University]] college student Laura Carter who was killed when she was struck by a stray bullet. Cross has stated on his social media platforms that he felt it was inappropriate for ABC/General Hospital to use the song against his wishes and those of Carter's family. ''Another Page'' sold well, getting [[Gold (RIAA certification)|Gold]] certification.<ref>{{Cite certification|region=United States|artist=Christopher Cross|title=Another Page|access-date=July 24, 2022}}</ref> He also co-wrote and sang the song "A Chance For Heaven" for the [[1984 Summer Olympics#Music|1984 Summer Olympic Games]].
