   I have to admit that I cannot separate how nice I think Ace looks from my opinion of the video, because well, there’s a lot of that ’sex sells’ going on and well, he’s looking quite nice in my opinion. On another note, I enjoyed the song when he sang it on that JD Roberto show so it’s all good. I hope I don’t have to have the, well it has to be a hit before we will play it conversation with my local DJ again!

   Yikes! You’re right, Mrs. Trep, sex does sell. And Ace certainly looks good in the video. I’m guessing it was fun to make!

   I feel a little too old to be all fangirly about Ace, but damn that boy is yummy.

   In other news - I also like the song.

   My 7 yr old is a devoted Ace fan. Ace was his very first “favorite” once he was old enough to realize kind of how the show worked. So, I would have been buying that CD anyway. He’s going to be excited when I tell him it’s finally coming out (which I won’t do until July, since 7 yr olds don’t have much patience!).

   Well, that’s quite racy! Ahem.

   I’m looking forward to the album as well!

   I don’t like the video; it’s too voyeuristic and it skeeves me out. Also, I find it kind of weird that Ace’s parents had his fans stop circulating shirtless pictures of him on his fansites and now this…? Mmmkay. I think it’s time for Ace to have a makeover too.

   I hated the song at first…it’s grown on me a little but I’m still not crazy about it. Ah well, at any rate, good luck, Ace!

   Yuck, wasn’t feeling him on Idol, still not feeling him, now. Can’t stand the muscles, the shirt, the voice, the whole package….ewie!

    “You had me from the jump.” Um…. no. Sounds a bit to pop to be a real dance hit but maybe a good remix could sell it in. Don’t see much happening with this one.

    The woman in the video represents his addiction. Notice how he keeps trying to throw her out and she keeps coming back to haunt and seduce him? I like the video and hope it helps sell the song/album.

    Ummm - I love the muscles, I love the shirt, I love the hair, I love the guy, I love the song. What’s not to love? And Billboard loves it, too!!

    “American Idol” season-five finalist Ace Young was among the prettiest, but also most capable vocalists, with understated charm. That makes enthralling first single “Addicted” a bit of a shock—there’s nothing laid-back about this TNT-ignited, full-on pop opus, so plump with production elements that Phil Spector would wink. Boasting heavyweight super-producer Desmond Child and Swede hitmaker Andreas Carlsson, the song’s mass of strings, horns, percussion, a gritty guitar solo and craftily layered vocals pound home one hook after another. Reminiscent of Savage Garden or any other cherished melodic fave, Young delivers quite the ace. “Addicted” has every element to break this talent wide open. —Chuck Taylor

    Whooooot!

    I just now watched the video. It’s a little too much sex for me but I’m not the target audience. I do like the song.
