Old School Hollywood

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

"Old School Hollywood" is a song by System of a Down about Daron Malakian's experience at a celebrity baseball game. It is the tenth track on their fourth album, Mezmerize. It uses a synthesizer and voice effects as its main hook.

The meaning behind the song lies in the event of the Celebrity Baseball game in 2003 where guitarist Daron Malakian was ignored and didn't really take the whole thing seriously like everyone else. According to him, it was a complete nightmare.

People mentioned in the song: Frankie Avalon, Tony Danza and Jack Gilardi.
