I’m breaking the rules today by not featuring a second song from Elvis Costello’s North. I couldn’t find any more of its tracks on YouTube and I’m not about to throw good money after bad and download one.
Instead I’m going back a few years before the release of North to highlight a performance in a similar vein that I find far more effective. Costello recorded this cover of the Charles Aznavour song ‘She’ for the soundtrack to 1999’s Notting Hill. The song played over the opening and end credits of that Julia Roberts/Hugh Grant romantic comedy, adding a nice romantic sheen.
