Lyrics[]

Angel Dust: 'Til death do us part
But, we're already past that phase
This is a brand new start
And I think I deserve some praise

For the way that I am
Despite having overdosed
And ending up comatose

I don't give a damn
I've let my emotions go
Fuck bein' a sober hoe

This is the mantra
This is my life
You're playin' with now
'Til the end of the night

Surrounded by fire
The passion ignites
A hit of that Heaven and Hell
A helluva high

Angel Dust and Cherri Bomb: I'm addicted to the madness
This hotel is my Atlantis
We're forever gonna have a fuckin' reason to sin
Let me leave my soul to burn and I'll be breathin' it in

I'm addicted to the feelin'
Gettin' higher than the ceilin'
And we're never gonna want this fuckin' feelin' to end
Just concede and give in to your inner demons again

Cherri Bomb: Yeah, you fell in love
But, you fell deeper in this pit
While death rains from above
So count your blessings 'cause this is it

You're not lettin' it go
So, what if I misbehave?
It's what everybody craves

You already know
So, come if you're feelin' brave
And fancy yourself a mate

You want it, I got it
See what you like?
We could have it all
By the end of the night

Your money and power
My sinful delight
A hit of that Heaven and Hell
A helluva high

Angel Dust and Cherri Bomb: I'm addicted to the madness
This hotel is my Atlantis
Angel Dust: We're forever gonna have a fuckin' reason to sin
Cherri Bomb: Let me leave my soul to burn and I'll be breathin' it in

Angel Dust and Cherri Bomb: I'm addicted to the feelin'
Gettin' higher than the ceilin'
And we're never gonna want this fuckin' feelin' to end
Just concede and give in to your inner demons again

Angel Dust: Just concede and give in to your inner demons again

Angel Dust and Cherri Bomb: I'm addicted to the feelin'
Gettin' higher than the ceilin'
And we're never gonna want this fuckin' feeling to end
Just concede and give in to your inner demons again

Angel Dust: I'm addicted to the sorrow
When the buzz ends by tomorrow
There's another rush of poison flowing into my veins
Giving me a dose of pleasure that resides by the pain

I'm addicted, I'm dependent
Looking awesome, feeling helpless
And I know I'm raisin' cane by every highway in Hell
Maybe things won't be so terrible inside this hotel

Trivia[]

  • Fat Nuggets makes his first animated appearance in the official music video of this song.
  • During Cherri's scenes, a one-eyed figure makes an appearance. This figure bears an uncanny resemblance to the Demon Hunter, a character from Vivziepop's previous work Zoophobia. Though, it is unknown if it is the same character or a reference to them.
  • Travis is shown watching Angel Dust's performance amorously before Angel kicks him in the face.
  • Several Impsonas of the SpindleHorse crew members make an appearance.
  • An early reel design of Fat Nuggets taken from the prequel comic can be seen in a poster in Angel's hotel room during the after-credits scene.
  • A remix album of the song is available on YouTube.
  • The credits and epilogue use music from the VIP mix.
    • The ending "Hazbin Hotel" logo was animated by Michael Boggs, who initially made the logo as just a fan animation.[2][3][4]
  • Austin Kalista, who was previously an animator for the SpindleHorse short "Holidaze", also helped work on this short. He previously made a series of Hazbin Hotel fan animations before being inquired by Vivziepop.
  • According to Austin, he re-watched a scene in Disney's animated film, Mulan, in order to copy the way the smoke travelled from Angel's cigarette in the after-credits scene.[5]
  • The second chorus briefly acknowledges Angel's love of blobfish and angelfish as stated from a live stream,[6] as it shows him and Cherri Bomb having fun in a club with an aquarium in the background that reaches the ceiling. Coincidentally, both a blobfish and three angelfish can be seen in one of the shots.
  • In the original, Angel sings about how the hotel might not be as bad as he thought in the epilogue, while in the French dub, he sings about how he wishes to be redeemed and to be able to escape to Heaven. It is unknown if this is an easter egg, or just a mistranslation.
  • From this music video onwards, Cherri has a slightly revamped design, having different tattoos on her right arm, her left glove having a different design, the right strap, along with the buttons to her skirt removed, new designs on both her shirt and skirt along with her left boot. Charlie also receives a new hairstyle at the end of the music video.
  • Cécilia Goncalves made the designs of Dia and Summer.[7] Also according to Cécilia, Summer was originally named Lulu but she changed it due to sounding too similar to another character's name.[8]
    • Cécilia also replied to a question about if the two were girlfriends, saying that she shouldn't decide that but would want to see them as such and being in an open relationship due to being sex workers.[9]
  • The line "heaven and hell" is a double entendre of another street term for pcp, aka angel dust.[10]
  • This song may reference the song "Poison", wherein the lyrics include "Addicted to this feeling".
    • Additionally, the word "Poison" is mentioned in ADDICT in the lyrics "There's another rush of poison flowing into my veins".
  • According to Vivziepop, Valentino counting three bills was something that slipped through the cracks in animation from the boards to final and he was supposed to be counting a stack of bills.[11]
    • Angel Dust joking in "Masquerade" about how Valentino's eyesight is so bad that he once spent a half hour counting a "stack" of bills, unaware there were only three in his hand, is a reference to him looking at three the bills in ADDICT.[11]

Errors[]

  • Angel's left sclera was colored incorrectly during the second chorus.
  • The temples of both Angel and Cherri's glasses disappear throughout the scene wherein they are worn.
  • When Angel finishes singing the line "Just concede and give in to your inner demons again.", Cherri's hair appears out of nowhere.
  • During the scene wherein Angel's facing backwards, just before he sings the line "Just concede and give in to your inner demons again.", the heart-shaped patch of fur behind his head is missing.
    • The patch of fur appears to be missing again during the scene wherein he sings the line "We're forever gonna have a fuckin' reason to sin."
  • The design of Cherri's usual outfit changes throughout the music video, most notably the length of her shorts.
  • The part of Angel's eye that is covered by his bangs is not colored in during the scene wherein Valentino forcefully takes Angel's chin to face him.
  • The fur patterns on Angel's hands, specifically his fingers, keep changing throughout the music video.
