I just gotta babysit your ass so don't mess things up and make me look bad ok? Nick: That's not bad, I mean it's not bad being with such a beautiful lady. Candy: Ok interview's over! I got what I want now! Nick: [laughs] See? I mean it could be worse if I was with somebody different ya know, but that's all you so it's cool. Candy: [laughs] Ok stop hitting on me. So Nick has a brand new cd comin out soon, what's it gonna be called? Nick: Now or Never. Candy: Now Or Never? Why'd you pick that title for the cd? Nick: I just felt like it was now or never, I was gonna do it now, or never gonna do it. Candy: So tell me about the single, that we're going to play for the first time ever right here at BFD 4 for everyone in Seattle, right? Nick: Yup. Candy: Um so..it's taking on a more rock turn though? Nick: Yeah, I've always been very very rock influenced since I was young kid, I grew up on rock music..that's always what I tried to put in to the Backstreet Boys, my one fit, I always tried to put in like a little bit of rock edge, little bit of that just gritty kind of...just rock edge. So now that's what I`m doing, I'm doin the whole thing like that ya know? It's not like really hard core rock, it's like a pop rock. Candy: So now are you more proud of this album, or an album you did with the Backstreet Boys? Nick: I am so proud of everything that I've done with the Backstreet Boys, because we've accomplished a lot since we've been together as a group. but this is a whole new thing for me, and it's just me, ya know? Candy: Did you get to call all the shots on this album? Nick: Yeah.. everything..if there was a song I wrote then ya know...I mean most of the songs, I wrote about 75% of the album, but if there wasn't songs that I wrote then they had to actually mean something, like, they had to be very personal to me like something that I've been going through or wouldn't have recorded it at all on the album. Candy: Now this is where we get personal...Nick and I have been hanging out for a while, I feel like I know you a little bit. Here's the question, girlfriend, yes or no? Nick: No Candy: Want a girlfriend, yes or no? Nick: Very badly Candy: Really? Nick: Very very Candy: Are you a relationship guy? Nick: Kind of..depends. alot of the girls that I meet, ya know, its like I'm so scared if they're down with likin' you because of who you are or who you are know what I'm sayin? [laughs] ya never know.. Candy: This is the other thing I heard about you, being a commitment phobic - not really commitment phobic i don't wanna say that, scared of dating - I believe that's the quote from a magazine that just came out Nick: Nah, I'm not scared of dating, I mean I date. I'm just scared of like relationships.. Candy: Supermodels from what I hear.. Nick: Who told you that? Candy: I heard you were dating a super model over in Sweden same place you were recording in the studio.. Nick: I dated a girl, supermodel for like a short period of time but like I said I get all scared and I don't trust people.
