"Hollywood" is a rock song by Irish band the Cranberries. It is the fourth single from the band's third album, entitled To the Faithful Departed. Plans to record a video clip were abandoned after the band cancelled the remainder of their Free to Decide World Tour and other promotional activities due to lead singer Dolores O'Riordan's health problems.[1] The worldwide release of a commercial CD single was cancelled as well, except in France.[2]
