What's missing is a true sense of McIntyre as his own artist.

McIntyre has the handsome boyish looks of a teen idol, and there are times during the album where he bleeds passion. He just doesn't bleed it on key.

In these days of even "tougher" younger dudes (think Hansons), Joey may just ended up mugged along the way.

"Stay the Same" is easily better than what the Backstreet Boys or 'N Sync's are producing.

With this debut solo collection of love ballads and Stevie Wonder-influenced dance tunes, Joey just may give the Backstreet Boys, 'N Sync and the rest of this year's New Kids a run for the teenybopper bucks.

McIntyre may be in sync with the charts and the trends, but it appears as if he's still a stranger to himself.
