Window is the sixth studio album by American singer Christopher Cross. It was released in the United States in 1994 through Rhythm Safari and distributed by Priority Records. The album did not achieve the sales success of his earlier albums, failing to chart or generate the comeback that Cross desired.[2]
Window was also released separately in Germany by BMG and Japan by Geronimo Records (a sublabel of Polystar Records), where it reached No.91 on the Oricon Albums Chart.[3]
Reception
Stephen Thomas Erlewine in Allmusic stated "most of the record is devoid of anything resembling hooks; instead, it relies on its production to make an impact. As a result, Window is a bland collection of faceless, mellow pop that works only as background music."[1]
