Additions:
1) Because normalization boosts the entire signal, the noise floor comes up as well.
2) Normalization has nothing to do with a song's average level, only the peak level. Yet when balancing levels between tracks in the process of assembling a master tape, it is the average level that is usually most important. This is one reason why most mastering engineers recommend that you not normalize each individual song.

(image is 404 - a screenshot demonstrating this is welcome)
//Fig. 2 - The highlighted area is about to be normalized.//
**Fig. 3** shows the post-normalized version of the drum track. Note how the average level is now dramatically higher.
//Fig. 3 - The upper track shows the non-normalized sound; the lower track shows normalization applied only to a section that occurs before a peak that attains maximum headroom.//
//Fig. 4 - The "gourmet normalized" drum track adds a lot more punch.//
