If you live in Germany you will get a bonus track on the album and another version with a special DVD. The tracklisting is the same as the US version only track #12 is Helpless. The DVD will include performances from the London O2 Arena concert last year and the music video for ‘Straight Through My Heart’ Check it out here.
In Japan the tracklisting is the same only with two bonus tracks which are ‘International Luv’ and a remix of ‘Straight Through My Heart’ there is also another version with a DVD which is the same one Germany gets. Check it out here.

Metromix.com posted video of the boys in rehearsals and having a small interview. Where they say they let Kevin hear the new music and he’s excited for the new album. Check it out below or download here in HQ.
Call them pop’s longest-running, most persistent group. Call them men, not boys. Just don’t call it a comeback. “We almost named the album that,” jokes Nick Carter, one-fourth of the Backstreet Boys, whose seventh studio effort, This Is Us, is slated for release on October 6th. “We’re the Brett Favres of the music industry.” Clearly, he and his bandmates are fed up with the public perception that they’ve taken an extended time out. They’re not ‘NSync, after all. “It does frustrate me,” says Brian Littrell. “Everybody asks, ‘Where have you been? What have you been doing?’ When we’re, like, ‘We’ve been touring the world, and working our butts off!’ ”
OK, so maybe the boy-band racket isn’t what it used to be. There are no million-plus first week sellers in today’s music business, and so many outlets vying for your attention that it’s easy to miss a respectable showing like Backstreet’s 2007 album, Unbreakable. Which is one reason why A.J. McLean, Howie Dorough, Carter and Littrell are looking back to a proven formula with This Is Us. “The idea was going back to those great R&B ballads as well as dance songs you can shake your butt to,” McLean explains. “And we were fortunate enough to work with some amazing writers and producers who got our concept and everything fit perfectly.”

Nick did a phone interview with Q107.5 in Memphis, TN yesterday morning (August 26). We finally got the audio. Thanks to Q107.5.
In the interview Nick says while they were recording they would of have lots of artists come in the studios and say they like the new stuff. One in particular that Nick mentioned was Wycelf Jean. He said ‘This Is Us’ the title track on the album will change music. Wow that’s a big complement coming from him. You can download the interview below.
