I love these songs, but boy is he cocky! I can't help laughing when I listen to the lyrics. No, not because I think Ne-Yo is gay, but because he works so hard on making us understand what an awesome freak he is. I can see how Prince influences him...

Addicted
[Spoken]
Let me talk to em
I guess you know you made it when they start talking bout you, right?
Welcome to fame
Ya'll don't pay me no mind, I just gotta get some stuff off my chest
Listen

Young, energetic, famous but don't really sweat it
Rich enough, fairly hot - so basically sex is not:
Difficult to get
That ain't my fault, naw naw
Listen

And just cuz I might take advantage once or twice
People tell me I'm not right, thinking that sex was my life
But that just ain't me
So let me clear it for those who have obviously misread the code
Listen to me now

NO
I
AM

I'm not ADDICTED TO SEX
But girl I guarantee that if you lay with me
You just might be
NO
I
AM
NOT
I'm not ADDICTED TO SEX
But girl I guarantee that if you lay with me
You just might be yeah

I wanna 'pologize for bein just a little freaky
I can't help it, it's just ?
But a problem it is not
I'm just fine ya'll
Don't worry bout me
Listen
And I wanna 'pologize
For bein blessed with the ability to satisfy accurately
And quickly find the spot
It's a gift and a curse
Don't mess around - find my number
In your girlfriend's purse
NO
I
AM
NOT
I'm not ADDICTED TO SEX
But girl I guarantee that if you lay with me
You just might be
NO
I
AM

I'm not ADDICTED TO SEX
But girl I guarantee that if you lay with me
You just might be yeah

I never been shy bout my self and sexuality
Never been taboo (never been taboo but if I)
Have to live without
I know its something I could do
But I just really don't want to

NO
I
AM

I'm not ADDICTED TO SEX
But girl I guarantee that if you lay with me
You just might be

True, but there are different degrees of confidence. lol. But hey, I am not complaining. A little cockiness is always good.

VenusBlingBling said:

I did notice his cockiness though. he is actually pretty level headed in REAL life.

ok... I know when Graycap23 started a thread about Sex With My Ex I said i hated this song... but the more i listen to the CD it's not that bad after all

banks said:

Think Andre Cymone and Camille.....

sex with my ex totally reminded me of mj and prince in the 80's

Yeah, you guys are right. "Sex..." definitely has that sound and it's really refreshing to hear something like that from a new artist. Thank goodness for Ne-Yo, that's what I say.

It does but that B2K'ish singing style sometimes creeps in and reminds you it's 2007
