North (Elvis Costello Album)
North is a 2003 album by Elvis Costello. It reached 44 in the UK album charts, 57 in the US charts and No. 1 in the US Traditional Jazz charts.
Coming after the return-to-form rock'n'roll of When I Was Cruel, North is an intimate album of ballads, reportedly inspired by Costello's relationship with Diana Krall. The album received mixed reviews.
A limited edition of the album also contains a DVD with two solo piano performances by Costello ("North," "Fallen") and a promo video for "Still." There is also a code included inside the package for a free download of the outtake title track "North," which is provided in the Windows Media Audio (.wma) format.

Famous quotes containing the word north:
“Here, the flag snaps in the glare and silence
Of the unbroken ice. I stand here,
The dogs bark, my beard is black, and I stare
At the North Pole. . .
And now what? Why, go back.
Turn as I please, my step is to the south.”
—Randall Jarrell (19141965)
