Addicted
ACE YOUNG
Producer(s): Desmond Child, Andreas Carlsson, Jon Vella, Kalle Engström
Genre: POP
Label: Pazzo
"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
