It's obvious that Joey McIntyre poured his heart into the first single from his upcoming album, "8:09." The former Boston-based New Kid penned the poignant lyrics to "L.A. Blue" soon after leaving his hometown. Revealing a mature sound that's closer to adult contemporary than mainstream pop, it seems as though McIntyre is finally making strides in distancing himself from an image he has been trying to shake for years. But it's unlikely—and unfortunate—that anyone other than die-hard fans will get the chance to be acquainted with his more melodic side. These days, such a deeply personal song will likely get lost in the shuffle.

There's a new Horse's Mouth message up at Joey's website, find it here.

Poor Joey! Hopefully he'll be able to get at least a little recognition and credibility with this album. I feel so bad for both Joey & Jordan that they're having to fight so hard to get past the stigma of their earlier years in NKOTB.

Hopefully they'll both be able to make it work, if only because that's what they seem to want to do.
As long as they're happy.

That goes for everybody, really.
Justin, JC, Chris, Joey F, Lance, Jordan Knight, Joey McIntrye, and all of you!!

I feel bad for Joey and Jordan, too. I got Jordan's CD back in the Give It To You days, and I know I've liked the few songs I've heard from Joey. It's a shame that not many people have heard their stuff, at least anything past the New Kids days.

Hi Siamese Twin, nice to meet you!

I know what you mean. I'm sure that a lot of people just don't even want to give anyone who's labelled as a former New Kid the time of day.

Heck! Look at what a hard time the critics are giving JC & Justin as they're breaking away from *NSYNC. It's a bit of an understatement to say that *NSYNC is slightly more respected than NKOTB ever dreamed of being.
