 The single that US radio djs overlooked !!! August 18, 2003
Juan Carlos Rodriguez (Panama, Panama Panama)

Great danceable mixes with enough versions to satisfy any trend. Perhaps this is not the best single Madonna has released, but anyway, it is a pop melodic song with great lyrics and a catchy chorus. After the "American Life" single, this was obviously the correct single to follow after all the controversy caused by the first single and its "Wonderful" video. Living outside the USA gave me the chance to enjoy the original "American Life " video as well as the song over and over. I agree with many people. The USA were not ready to hear from its most famous pop icon that the American Dream is based solely on looks, power and money where nothing is what is seems. It's hard to admit it, but it's a truth well known around the whole world. Madonna dared to sung the wrong lyrics to the wrong country at the very wrong moment: Irak war (which by the way, has caused even more US casualties after the conflict "ended" ).
After my brief analysis, I don't wonder why US djs haven't played this song. While they have not declared openly a boicot to Madonna's records, that's what is obviously happening. All around the rest of the world, Madonna's "Hollywood" is Number 1 for the third consecutive week, with Beyonce's "Crazy in Love" at number 2, struggling hard to dethrone the queen of pop (not an easy task in a LOGICAL music world). "Hollywood" debuted at number 4 in the Billboard singles sales chart and has became Madonna's 30th Number 1 in the Club Play charts. How could you explain that this song has not earn enough points on Radio Airplay in the USA? As a result of this "Not declared" boicot, Hollywood is the first non charting Madonna's single on the Billboard's Hot 100. The only loosers are the US radio listeners which haven't been able to enjoy this nice song. I hope that US radio programers open their mind a little in order to embrace the next single "Nothing Fails" , an hybrid bewteen "Don't Tell Me" and "Like a Prayer". This is a deep catchy song that deserves a better luck. HIP HOP has dominated the Billborad Top 10 in the recent years. This is kind of funny because you don't even need to "SING" anymore in order to own the number one "SONG" in the USA.
Madonna's 30th number one club track. July 26, 2003

This is the second release fron the American Life cd and it finds the Material Girl doing some more self searching. This cd single comes with 5 remixes and a radio edit. This is Madonna and most .... will buy this no matter how good or bad the mixes are. The Radio edit(3:42) is good but needed the "Push The Button " part on it. The Jacques Lu Con't's Thin White Duck Mix(7:09) is good electronica with most of the vocals.The Micronauts remix(6:25) is good as well but is basically a dub mix. The Paul Oakenfold Full remix(7:01) is the second best mix here. It is electro with a lot of house thrown in and features the entire vocal of Madonna. The Deepsky's Home Sweet Home Vocal mix(7:34) is okay but doesn't feature any of the vocals except the "Push The Button" part. Disappointing!! The best mix is the Victor Calderone and Mac Quayle Glam Mix(9:22) and what most Club DJ's are playing. This track is more aggressive than some of his latest stuff and features the entire vocal of Madonna on it. Just another side of Madonna in her never ending trying and doing and being all career.
great remixes! July 12, 2003

These are some very modern remixes with a retro vibe. My favorite is definitely the Oakenfold mix, which is just an awesome dance floor stomper. The Jacques mix and micronauts mix are very interesting as well. I'd have to say i like this maxi more than "American Life" and "Die Another Day", which were also very good.
Madonna is the queen of maxi-singles!
HOLLYWOOD! THE DJ'S WILL TAKE U THERE! July 9, 2003
5 out of 5 found this review helpful
If u like hi energy dance music, Hollywood is for you! The first track is the radio edit(3:42) which is same song from the original American Life album. This single is a classic in it self and Madonna has done a perfect job whenever she performs this song live for her fans. She did the latter in New York and LondonTrack 002 is Jacques Lu Cont's Thin White Duck mix(7:02). This remix is rather timid and very much laid back so to speak. You will not hear this remix on a Saturday night at a club unless it is the last song that the dj plays. Madonna's voice is refreshing on this track though. Track number 003 is The Micronauts Remix(6:25)It has a kewl dance beat which is groovy. You hear Madonna gasping for air over and over again at the begining and throughtout this track. "Check it out" she says. I like it. Track 004 is the Oakenfold Full Remix(7:01)! This is the remix to die for! It is one of the remixes that the hottest night clubs in Houston, Tx are playing. The remix is fast, glamorous, cute, somewhat of a rave, techno and house combined. One of the standouts about this track is that you get to hear Madonna sing! Paul Oakenfold has done it again! Get ready to dance my sisters...and brothers! Track 005 is Deepsky Home Sweet Home Vocal remix(7:34)If u are a great dancer when it comes to dancing in pairs, this song is for you? Atleast that is how I envision it. "Push The button..Don't push the button trip the station change the channel" madonna blurts out over and over again. I do like this remix but I also believe that Deepsky did a better remix of "Die Another Day." Track 006 is Calderone & Quayle Glam Mix(9:22) This remix and Paul Oakenfolds are the best of the five remixes(excluding track one which is the original from American Life) on this album. Once again you get to hear Madonna sing as the dj's work their magic with the music.
The remix used on the MTV Awards is on this CD August 31, 2003

In case anyone was wondering, the "Thin White Duck" remix on this CD is the remix heard during Madonna's performance of "Hollywood" on the MTV Video Music Awards.
