about

Singer/lyricist Joe Hodgson outlines how Hollywood came into being – ‘The genesis of the track was in the first verse, which came line by line in a really organic way, building up a feeling of it being an ‘honest love song’ which wasn’t too sugary sweet. The track was provisionally called ‘Love Is’ and mutated into “Hollywood” once the hometown memory element came into the mix. I wrote it on the piano over a few days which helped get that ballad feel. I’m probably most proud of the middle-8 lyric: ‘So, raise a glass to a shipbuilding town /Drink your weight in words and try to keep it down / You’ve got the look of your father and a couple of his dance moves too / Yeah, you’re the spit of your mother, what a looker back in 82’.’
