"Crush" has been met with positive reviews by many critics. [[Chuck Taylor (Billboard writer and editor)|Chuck Taylor]] of ''[[Billboard (magazine)|Billboard]]'' praised it for being a suitable match for Archuleta, citing it as a "hummable, age-appropriate midtempo pop ditty for the 17-year-old, showcasing his fine mass-appeal vocal stylings with creamy harmonies and some nice falsetto effects." He also predicted chart success for the song, saying "'Crush' is likely to put its money where its title is on the charts."<ref>{{cite web [[Media:[Example.ogg]]] |

Michael Slezak of ''[[Entertainment Weekly]]'' called the song "surprisingly good!", as well as "hip and contemporary." He stated, "David adroitly walks the line between giving his core fans their fill of vocal runs while showing enough restraint that he won't automatically alienate non-Idol-loving listeners."<ref> {{cite web |

''[[Blender Magazine]]'', despite not liking Archuleta during his time on ''American Idol'', also praised the song, giving it three and a half out of five stars and claiming to have "just listened to the thing six times in a row and we're not terribly angry about spin seven." They also liked that the song seemed perfectly crafted for radio, saying, "Songs like "Crush" are great because they sound as if the radio immaculately conceived them."<ref> {{cite web |

Please do not correct "Los Angeles" and "Chicago" in the line scores. This was designed not to confuse the users as they are in the post-season. They are to be listed as "L. A. Dodgers", "L. A.

The group is also shown in a cabin playing a game involving [[post it|post its]], while Archuleta is also shown playing his [[guitar]] in the cabin. Another scene shows the group by a campfire with several of the kids paired off into couples. At the end Archuleta goes out on the deck of the cabin, and the girl follows him out, showing that she shares his feelings. Archuleta is also shown playing the [[piano]] right next to the lake throughout the video. |
|||
The video is now available for voting on the VH1 Top 20 Countdown website. It debuted at number 15 on Sepember 27th, 2008 and jumped 12 spots to #3 on October 4th, 2008. |
