Albatross Lyrics


One last cup of starlight
Before I wake and start my day
A past so filled with promise
Before I lost, I lost my way
Ah that’s ok, and I’m alright
I guess I’ll be lost again
For one more night
Ooh and that’s alright, I’m ok
I'll wear the albatross
For one more day
[Solo]
As the past recalls the romance
Before the bets and what you make
I lost my friend in between them
And that was more than I could take

Ah that’s ok, and I’m alright
I guess I’ll be lost again
For one more night
Ooh and that’s alright, I’m ok
I'll wear the albatross
For one more day
[Solo]
Ah that’s ok, and I’m alright
I guess I’ll be lost again
For one more night
Ooh and that’s alright, I’m ok
I'll wear the albatross
For one more day
I'll wear the albatross
For one more day
I'll wear the albatross
For one more day
And because I know I'm alright

Big Wreck was a neo-progressive hard rock band of the late 1990s.

The band was formed in Boston, Massachusetts in 1995 by vocalist Ian Thornley, guitarist Brian Doherty, bassist Dave Henning and drummer Forrest Williams, who met as students at the Berklee College of Music. After several years of gigging in Boston and Cambridge, the band signed to a major label and released its debut album In Loving Memory Of... in 1997. The single The Oaf was a major Top Ten hit for the band that year.

Due to Thornley's Canadian nationality, the band's biggest commercial success was actually in Canada rather than the United States. The album's subsequent singles, Blown Wide Open and That Song, were not as successful on the American charts as The Oaf had been, but in Canada they were both Top Ten hits.

In October of 2001, Big Wreck played a special show at Toronto's Roy Thompson Hall accompanied by the Toronto Symphony Orchestra and the Uzume Taiko Ensemble of drummers, with The Tragically Hip's Paul Langlois and Robby Baker also making appearances.

The band's second album The Pleasure and the Greed (released in 2001) was marred by poor marketing and was not as big a hit as their debut album, especially in the United States. The band subsequently broke up a year later in 2002.

Thornley moved back to Toronto, launching the band Thornley. Doherty has gone on to be in the indie band Death of 8, but the other band members never emerged with new projects.

Ian and Brian rekindled their friendship, which lead to a reunion in 2011

New album titled "Albatross" released on iTunes on March 6, 2012

Subsequent 2012 Canadian tour announced.
