Christopher Cross - Arthurs Theme
Review by Hemant Gandhi
Arthur's Theme is the second studio album by American singer-songwriter Christopher Cross. Released in 1981, the album features the hit single "Arthur's Theme (Best That You Can Do)," which won an Academy Award for Best Original Song in 1982.
The album also includes other notable tracks such as "All Right," "Minstrel Gigolo," and "Say You'll Be Mine." Cross's smooth vocals and mellow melodies are on full display throughout the album, showcasing his signature style of soft rock and pop.
Listeners will appreciate the well-crafted arrangements and polished production of Arthur's Theme, which has stood the test of time as a classic album of the 80s. Cross's songwriting and musicianship are top-notch, and his ability to craft catchy hooks and memorable melodies is evident on every track.

2/13/2023 I'm 48 yrs old this is Mother flipping Christopher Cross..
I find songs like this from when I was growing up in the early 90s and I embrace it
All-world sax solo by Ernie Watts. There used to be fantastic songs in feature films. I wonder what made that go away.
Omg. Nice thoughts flowing through my heart from years ago ❤️ ♥️ ?
