Hi, I haven't been a fan since NKOTB. I didn't really know them that well, I was pretty young, and didn't care about music too much. But ever since I heard, "Stay The Same," I have just LOVED Joe! He has a great voice and it really touches me to know that he wrote every song but one on his album! My favorites are "I Cried" and "Without Your Love" because they are really emotionally powerful songs. I think that he is very talented, and I would recommend this cd to anyone, even those who hated him back in NKOTB! Get this cd, it is definitely worth it!
