Nick & Knight Album Comes Out Tomorrow!

Hi everyone. Hope you are enjoying your Labor Day weekend! I'm enjoying the extra time off from work and trying to catch up on some things. I've booked my flights for BSB Cruise 2014 and I'm trying to find time to get outfits together for that and the two Nick & Knight shows in Chicago.

Speaking of Nick & Knight, the album will be in stores tomorrow!!! I already pre-ordered the album through iTunes, but I'll be getting the physical copy at Best Buy. Sadly, it won't be the Best Buy in New York where Nick will be signing cds, but I wish everyone attending a fun and safe time!

I'll be watching Good Morning America tomorrow and Kelly and Michael on Wednesday. Wednesday is my 31st birthday so seeing Nick on tv will be a nice way to celebrate before going to work. It's always exciting when Nick is putting out new music and all the press that comes along with it.

GMA is asking fans for questions to ask Nick & Knight via Twitter and I submitted a few. I've been wondering if they will be using instruments during their shows, if they will invite fans up on stage, and what their favorite Nick & Knight song is to perform. Hopefully, some of those questions will be answered tomorrow. I heard that BSB and New Kids songs will be performed as well, but I'm wondering if any of their previous solo stuff will be too. Here's a couple of pictures of Nick and Jordan rehearsing for GMA that was posted on their Facebook page.



So awhile back, Pandora had put the whole Nick & Knight album to listen to on their site. It's still available by clicking here and clicking the Nick & Knight ad on the right. After Pandora not working for me, I was finally able to listen to it and it's a very fun, impressive album. I never have any doubt in Nick's determination and talent and knew this would be a great album but I still wish it was all just Nick lol.

I would say my favorite song off the album as of this moment would be "Drive My Car." I say that because I replayed that one a few more times than the others on Pandora. I think it has a fresh, cool vibe.

Out of the three songs you get right away from the iTunes pre-order, I really enjoyed "Paper" the most and played that one on repeat even more than "Drive My Car." It's definitely a sexy song. My only complaint is that Nick's f-bomb had to be scrambled out lol.

"One More Time" was the perfect song to pick for the first music video off the album because it is a fun, catchy song and I think you could say that much of the album is both fun and catchy. I was happy to hear that most of the songs are up-tempo.

"Nobody Better" is such a perfect dance song, but Nick should have been the one to have rapped. Jordan does a good job though.

"Switch" is a sexy, playful song and "Take Me Home" seems to be the fan favorite showcasing Nick's strong vocals and bringing across the emotion in this ballad.

"Deja Vu" is totally groovable, as well as danceable and "If You Want It" is playful and has a disco sound to it...should be played on 70's Night on the cruise.

"Halfway There" is such a pretty song and I can really picture the guys singing this one at their shows and making it a sweet moment to share with the fans.

That leaves "Just the Two of Us," the first song we heard from Nick & Knight. Smooth and catchy.

Overall, I love the album and I'm glad to hear new music from Nick. Our Nick is definitely going to be busy for awhile between the album, tour, I Heart Nick Carter, and the cruise. Plus, he's keeping up with his exercise routines. For crying out loud, eat that cupcake, Nick! You deserve it! lol

Since I brought up I Heart Nick Carter, is everyone ready for the premiere September 10th? I've been keeping up with the clips that have been coming out and it'll be nice to see Nick on tv every Wednesday night. I think I'll have to watch it the next day though because Wednesdays are one of the days I work nights and I don't have cable. I plan on blogging about each episode and I hope you guys will read and comment. Nick mentioned on Twitter that he is nervous about the show, but it'll all be okay...it's happening so there's no turning back now lol. The show has its own Twitter page at @HeartNickCarter and VH1 put up their own page complete with some clips of the show.

Nick has also been asking for some I Heart Nick Carter challenges to be completed and the first one so far was posting a picture with #IHeartNickCarter in it. I've had this pin forever so I thought I would use it for the challenge.


This week I'll be anticipating all the excitement surrounding Nick & Knight and celebrating my birthday.

In non-related Nick news, I seen Bret Michaels two Saturdays ago and he put on a great show, very personable on stage and I would say was my favorite show I seen out of my brother's picks. I've always liked Poison so it was nice to hear most of the hits live. It was "nothin' but a good time" pun intended.

Last night, my brother and I seen Queensryche, Warrant, and Sebastian Bach. I'm hoping since I go on his musical adventures he'll see the second Nick & Knight show in Chicago with me. Still haven't talked him into it yet lol.

Well, it's Monday so I'll be watching Bachelor in Paradise. Hope everyone has a great week!
