A second helping from the American Life album, Hollywood maintains just about enough Mirwais spark to make it worth a listen.

It would be even better if the lazy lyrics (where just about everything rhymes with "Hollywood" - especially itself) had been dispensed with and Mirwais hadn't managed to make the production sound like he's used the same instruments on this as he has on everything else he's produced for Her Madgeness.

It has the name Madonna on it so it will sell, but it's hardly vintage stuff. Time for some musical reinvention to go with the incessant changes of image.
