Singer-songwriter Christopher Cross has been diagnosed with the coronavirus. The five-time Grammy winner shared the news in a lengthy Facebook post on Friday (April 3).

“I’m sorry to report that I am among the growing number of Americans who tested positive for the COVID-19 virus,” he wrote. “Although I am fortunate enough to be cared for at home, this is possibly the worst illness I’ve ever had.”

The musician, whose songs “Arthur’s Theme (Best That You Can Do)” and “Sailing” topped the Billboard Hot 100, urged his fans to take the growing global pandemic seriously.

“For those of you who still do not believe the COVID-19 virus is real, or think it is a ‘hoax’ or part of some conspiracy, my advice to you is to understand right now that this is a deadly illness spreading like wildfire throughout the world,” he continued. “PLEASE make every attempt to stall the spread of the virus.”

1. "I'll Never Be the Same"

Thank you, Christopher Cross. My dad heard this on the radio when I was a kid when this song first came out, and he mentioned that it was a lovely song.

RIP, my dad, and all the best to you, Christopher Cross.

2. Best wishes to him!

Glad that he’s staying in isolation and not riding like the wind “to the border of Mexico”.

One of my favorites when I was in elementary school:

3. Cross has a great voice and ear for melody and some underrated work

I'm sorry he's suffering, but he's doing well to get word out about the virus.
