My Flame Burns Blue (Blood Count). 14. Watching the Detectives. 15. God Give Me Strength. This CD of 14 very interesting songs sang in the jazz tradition, was recorded live at the North Sea Jazz Festival in 2004. Costello is backed by the Metropole Orkest (also known as the Metropole Orchestra), conducted by Vince Mendoza. Mendoza also arranges "That's How You Got Killed Before", "Episode of Blonde" and the title track, which is only 3 of the 14 songs but it's good enough for me. Interestingly, certainly for me, Bill Frisell & Willem Friede also arrange a song here - "Upon A Veil of Midnight Blue".

As the last light glimmers And the evening hours dim Maybe I'm too proud to utter it out loud Even though my flame burns blue. As the night's descending Once again I find I'll tarry and pretend My confidential friend Will suddenly appear in view. All my might Between velvet and dynamite Blow out the doors Let in the light Falling dust in the beam And a small stifled scream. Alibis and decoys Were his eyes so turquoise? Covered with a lash They flatter and they flash Even though my flame burns blue
This is a rare thing in live albums: a souvenir equal to my fond memory of this big-swing project, which I saw reprised at New York’s Lincoln Center by Costello and Holland’s Metropole Orkest just four days after they recorded these performances on July 9th, 2004, at the North Sea Jazz Festival. I wish there had been room on this single-CD version of the original two-hour show for the luscious tension they lavished on Someone Took the Words Away, from Costello’s 2003 album North.
