Normalizing takes the single loudest sample and pushes it to the level of
your choice (usually around 0 db).
To make the whole track louder requires compression.
These are VERY different things but in a nutshell:  normalizing makes it all
louder, while compression makes the peaks quieter so you can turn the whole
thing up.

Email me off-list if you want me to explain more.

Oh, and nice track!
