The first single " Straight Through My Heart", was premiered on the group's website on August 17 and released to radio the following day.The deluxe edition (limited first edition in Japan) featured a DVD with live performances of previous singles at The O2 Arena in London, along with the music video for the first single. The group simultaneously released the standard and deluxe editions of the album. One Tedder song, "Shadows", which was co-written by McLean was written for this album, but failed to make it, so Simon Cowell bought the song for Leona Lewis's second album Echo but in the end felt it more suited for a boyband and it was featured on Westlife's 10th album Where We Are. It was also revealed that there had previously been 5 or 6 songs in the running for the lead single, although a Kevin Borg production titled "PDA" was most likely to be released however, the RedOne production felt like "it was meant to be". Due to timing, the group was not able to make any recordings with the in-demand producer however, near to the album's turn-in date, RedOne revealed that he had worked on three songs for the group and was more than willing to collaborate. Regarding their collaboration with RedOne, McLean remarked that it had been largely a last minute affair. Amongst those songs listed in the complaint was one called "Masquerade", described at the time as a new recording by the Backstreet Boys. In July 2010, the Rasch law firm logged a criminal complaint against DJ Stolen for "constantly placing hacked songs on the internet".
It was later revealed in 2011, that songs recorded for This Is Us were targeted by the German hacker, Deniz A., also known as DJ Stolen. In the end, however, the group used the feedback from the leaks to help guide the direction of the album and even the song selection by comparing fan reviews to what producers thought about the songs. McLean said that the group were "P.O.ed that music had leaked especially since extra care had been taken to keep the record secret". On May 1, 2009, the Backstreet Boys management team expressed discontent at the fact that four recorded songs had been leaked on the internet. It shows remarkable growth as songwriters and continues to give us songs that has made millions smile."
The 11 songs that make up album are the sounds of four skilled singers with a similar vision, who have dealt with the trials and tribulations that accompany fame at an early age and who came out as one of the most successful groups of all time. In the official press release RCA/Jive Records describes the album as "a finely crafted R&B and pop album from four talented musicians who love what they do and who maintain the rare relevance in an industry that often disposes of pop acts.
