I'm really unconvinced that the term 'albatross' has anything to do with the Fleetwood Mac single. I don't even think Fleetwood Mac are particularly associated with that song, it's one of many Mac hits. It's from Coleridge. The use of the term to mean 'a wearisome burden' applies outside the field of music too.

"Sun King" - how was thing song inspired by "Albatross"/is there a source? I'm not disputing it - I have no idea - but a source or justification would be nice. --kingboyk 01:05, 15 March 2006 (UTC)
