Hilltop Hoods – I Love It Feat. Sia

19 12 2011

The Hilltop Hoods have treated fans to not only one brand new film clip for their lead single I Love It, taken from the upcoming Drinking From The Sun LP, due February 2012. The clips, produced by 3 different production companies each bring a unique take on the track. Check them all out below.

Hilltop Hoods – I Love It Feat. Sia – Carl Allison & Nick Kozakis Version
Kozakis and Allison bring together a perfect fusion of direction and visuals to compliment any production. Having worked together on high and low end projects they are making a solid impact on the film & media industry. Allison brings a cinematic eye and a unique twist to his work aided by Kozakis’ innovative vision for direction.

Shot guerilla-style on a tight budget, Allison and Kozakis took a dark, stylistic approach in their rendition of ‘I Love It’. In this clip the Hoods roam the highways picking up unfortunate hitchhikers.

Hilltop Hoods – I Love It Feat. Sia – Animal Logic Version
Animal Logic is one of the worlds leading design, visual effects and animation companies. They have worked on such films as The Matrix, Moulin Rouge, 300 and Happy Feet. When creating their interpretation of ‘I Love It’ Animal Logic chose to let the viewer see the world through the eyes and imagination of a child.


Turntables become fascinating landscapes, and entryways into underground worlds, as two young children let their creativity bring their fantasy worlds to life.

Hilltop Hoods – I Love It Feat. Sia – Blue Tongue Version
The collective Blue Tongue Films was founded some 15 years ago. This gifted group of directors came together with a philosophy that by using their individual skills and strengths they could benefit each other’s projects.

Nash Edgerton (Spider, The Square) took the helm for this depiction of ‘I Love It’. Nash takes the Hoods on a journey searching through the majestic rainforest south of Sydney. Beautifully shot in the Royal National Park, this video looks more film than filmclip.

Hilltop Hoods – ‘I Love It’ Feat. Sia

25 11 2011

Hilltop Hoods make their highly anticipated return to the airwaves this month with their brand new single ‘I Love It’ Feat. Sia, which is set to drop through their own label Golden Era Records/UMA today, with production by South Australian newcomer One Above.

The single features arrangements from Jamie Messenger performed by the Bacchanalia String Quartet. It also features a special guest performance by Sia in her first collaboration with the Hoods. Their first single since 2009 and the first taste of their impending album, Drinking From The Sun, the single release also coincides with the bands first live appearances in almost 18 months as they head out on the road with Eminem in December and Big Day Out in January.

Due out February 2012 Drinking From The Sun speaks to the experience of being part of an underground culture that’s risen from obscurity to gain mainstream recognition. Even though this album is more introspective than their previous releases it maintains a balance of moody tracks and party joints that the Hoods are best known for. The album also has a fair amount of live instrumentation, and will feature a number of local and international guests.

The forthcoming release looks set to build on the success that has seen Hilltop Hoods win multiple ARIA awards, achieve double platinum album sales and play to sold out venues around Australia as well as overseas.

I love It is released today – Grab it now. - Drinking From The Sun will be released February 2012
