Just gone straight in at #2 in the billboard album charts (selling 6 times as much in it's first week than what Soul0 ever did)
The success might have been divorce-influence but hey there some great tracks on there and he deserves it.

The title track is pure mid-tempo Westlife but I do have a certain fondness for it..

It's absolute dribble and he has the charisma of a dead toad.

zzzzzz ... Men can't play the whole 'victim' thing the same way a woman can. Justin Spe Timberlake tried it with "Cry Me a River". Whine, whine, whine.

The single is good, but almost every song on the album is exactly the same as it.

I liked the other one in 98 Degrees, that wasn't his bro or the nerdy one.
The Hardest Thing is pure class.

Cry Me A River, wasn't a bad song..and as much as I dislike the Timberlake post Nsync....I do have to admit...he's a pretty talented dude.(though not as much as HE thinks he is) Damn him....
As for "What's Left of Me" it's boring. I like Nick-and not just because Jessica annoyed the hell out of me and I think any man that lived with her for any amount of time deserves some sort of an award-but I think he's allowing himself to continue on with boring dribble rather than attempt something that is a bit of a challenge. (a bigger challenge than living with Jess)
It's songs like that that are the reason that people make fun of pop. At least part of it.
It's cliched and not even in a good way.

it has a bit of feeling and emotion in it which puts him quite a few steps above westshite in my book. good power ballads are few and far between nowadays

I think it's a really nice song, his vocals are quite good.
