Graduated Fool is the third studio album from Dutch singer Anouk, released on 22 November 2002.{{cite web|url=http://www.discogs.com/Anouk-Graduated-Fool/master/91768|title=Anouk - Graduated Fool|publisher=discogs.com|accessdate=2014-02-15}} The album yielded three singles: "Everything" peaked at number 12 in the Dutch top 40, second single "I Live For You" failed to chart and third single "Hail" peaked at number 31, due to a lack of promotion because Anouk was pregnant with her son Elijah. The album itself peaked at number 3 in the Dutch album chart. With 25.000 copies sold, it was her least successful album to date.{{cite web|url=http://www.nvpi.nl/nvpi/pagina.asp?pagkey=60463&formposted=no&pagenr=1|title=Overzicht Goud/Platina Audio | NVPI|publisher=Nvpi.nl|accessdate=19 February 2012|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110514034507/http://www.nvpi.nl/nvpi/pagina.asp?pagkey=60463|archive-date=14 May 2011|url-status=dead}}
