'''''Another Page''''' is Christopher Cross's second studio album, recorded in 1982 and released in early 1983. It was not as commercially successful as its predecessor (it was certified Gold by the RIAA, but only after his self-titled debut album had already been certified Platinum by the time of the release of ''Another Page''). The album reached number 1 in Japan in 1983.<ref>Billboard. 5 March 1983, [https://books.google.co.uk/books?id=eCQEAAAAMBAJ&pg=PT56#v=onepage&q&f=false p 57]. 26 February 1983, [https://books.google.co.uk/books?id=EyQEAAAAMBAJ&pg=PT48#v=onepage&q&f=false p 49].</ref>
The album is known for its two hit singles, "All Right" and "Think of Laura". "All Right" is the first single to be released from the album.<ref name="Billboard1983-AllRight">{{cite magazine |date=January 29, 1983 |title=One Page Is The Past, Another Page Is The Future |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=EiQEAAAAMBAJ&pg=PT117&dq=all+right+christopher+cross |access-date=August 29, 2025 |magazine=Billboard |publisher=Nielsen Business Media |page=back cover}}</ref> And it became a massive hit in 1983, with it reaching No. 12 on the Billboard Hot 100, No. 3 on the Adult Contemporary chart, and No. 1 in the RPM adult contemporary charts. "Think of Laura" is dedicated to the Denison University college student Laura Carter, who was assassinated by Gordon Newlin when he shot a stray bullet at her during gunfire in a gang war. "Think of Laura" managed to become a No. 1 hit on the Adult Contemporary chart and No. 9 on the Billboard Hot 100. "Think of Laura" also was featured on the television soap opera General Hospital.
"Arthur's Theme (Best That You Can Do)" appeared as a bonus track on the cassette and later CD releases of the album.
== Reception == In his retrospective review, William Ruhlmann of AllMusic noted that ''Another Page'' closely followed the musical style of Christopher Cross's debut album, which had been a major commercial and critical success. Ruhlmann wrote that ''Another Page'' featured similarly smooth pop arrangements and romantic lyrics delivered in Cross's gentle, Brian Wilson-like tenor. Although the album lacked the emotional depth or edge of rock music, he stated that it was still commercially successful, producing two Top 40 hits—"All Right" and "No Time for Talk"—and earning a gold certification. Nearly a year after its release, the album gained renewed attention when the ballad "Think of Laura" was featured on the television soap opera General Hospital, leading to the song becoming a Top 10 hit.
