Untitled

I'm Taking Off is the second solo album released by Backstreet Boys member Nick Carter. The album was initially released on his own record label, Kaotic INC.

Background

Following the conclusion of the recording of the Backstreet Boys studio album This Is Us, Carter entered the studio to record solo material for a possible second album. On November 28, 2010, a new song, "Just One Kiss", was unveiled to Japanese radio. The song became an immediate success, peaking at #12 on the Japan Hot 100. Thus, Carter compiled a series of tracks he had recorded, and announced that his second studio album would be released on February 2, 2011 in Japan. On the week of release, the album sold 9,928 copies, peaking at #8, before dropping to #17 the following week, selling 4,103 copies. In its third week on the chart, it sold a further 3,100 copies, dropping to #30.[1][2][3] A deluxe version of the album, with a bonus DVD, was made available on February 9.

As such, Carter decide to release the album in the United States due it's success in Japan. The US release date was set for May 24, 2011, however, Carter announced the album would only be released digitally. Carter also announced that the single "Just One Kiss" would receive a US release on April 5.[4] The US version of the album replaces the track "Jewel In Our Hearts" with a new track, entitled "Remember". The US version also included a dance remix of the single "Just One Kiss". A deluxe version of the album, containing the contents of the Japanese Bonus DVD, was also made available.[5] The album peaked at #14 on the US Digital Chart.

Europe became the next country to receive a release. "Just One Kiss" was released on April 29, before the album received a release on June 2. The European version of the album does not include "Jewel In Our Hearts", "Remember" or the dance remix of "Just One Kiss", however, includes two further tracks - a new composition entitled "Coma", and Carter's 2009 duet with Jennifer Paige, "Beautiful Lie". The European version of the album comes packaged in a limited edition digipak, with postcard, poster, full album booklet, four additional videos and further enhanced content.

Canada became the last country to receive a release. However, this time, a brand new song, "Love Can't Wait", was released as the album's lead single on June 21. The album was released on August 9. The Canadian version includes "Love Can't Wait" as a bonus track, but does not include "Jewel In Our Hearts", "Coma", "Remember", "Beautiful Lie" or the dance remix of "Just One Kiss". The album peaked at #2 on the Canadian Digital Chart.

On November 15, 2011, a new version of the album was released worldwide. Entitled I'm Taking Off: Relaunched & Remixed, the release packages the original eleven-track album, accompanied by the specific bonus tracks available in each region, alongside a sixteen-track remix EP, containing remixes of "I'm Taking Off", "So Far Away", "Love Can't Wait", "Not The Other Guy", "Just One Kiss" and "Falling Down".[6]

According to AllAccess.com, "Burning Up" is the first single being released to U.S. mainstream radio on January 24, 2012.
