Its a very positive album, lot of positivityI am trying to breathe into it. Star is on the road with his musicthrough early Summer, before his new album hits the airwaves. 樂評：Four years in the making, Ryan Stars 11:59 has had his loyal fan base waiting for a very long time. Difficult to believe as it may be, it has been four long years since Ryan starred on the television show Rock Star: Supernova. Ryan has teased fans with singles here, EPs there, and playing new songs at live shows, all while maintaining a level of mystery about the development of his solo major label debut album.Fast-forward to 2010, and it has finally arrived. 11:59 starts off strong with the hopeful, powerful track Brand New Day. Fans will recognize this song from his Last Train Home EP. The following track, Right Now, expresses a sense of urgency, as Ryan sings the chorus almost as a plea to the world to live in the moment.Last Train Home, another song Ryans fans may recognize, sounds like an imminent smash hit, with a booming chorus that soars above the rest. His songwriting is on display here, as with the song We Might Fall, a slowly building piano-based ballad. Among the other standout tracks is Unbreak, a well-crafted song of commitment. It is immediately followed by Start a Fire, a fast-paced anthemic song about... well, sex. When it sounds this good, it might be difficult to argue with any subject matter. It is a single-worthy song with a radio-ready sound.The highlight of the album, however, is the final offering, the title track. 11:59 is a lyrically masterful song, perfect for a summer day. Please dont leave, this could be the best time of our lives tonight. You and me, dont let the moment pass by, put the windows down and drive away, he pleads in the chorus. It is a fitting end to one of the most complete albums of the year thus far. Ryan Star deserves a chance. This might just be his.翻譯：Ryan Star這張製作了四年的專輯讓他堅定的歌迷們等了很長一段時間了，很難相信從他在電視節目搖滾明星：超新星上演出開始已經過了四年了。他在開玩笑般地發行了許多單曲啊、EP啊的同時，始終保持著他首張個人大型專輯的神秘感。讓我們回到現在，而這張專輯終於到來了。11:59這張專輯以充滿希望和力量的歌曲“Brand New Day”起頭，歌迷們會發現這首歌也出現在Last Train Home這張EP之中。接下來的第二首歌”Right Now“通過Ryan Star像對當下世界的懇求一般的歌唱表達出一種緊迫感。“Last Train Home”，這是又一首他的歌迷容易從全曲大部分那咆哮般的聲音認出來的歌，這首歌聽起來像是一首不久就會走紅的曲子。“We Might Fall”是一首緩慢的以鋼琴為主的的歌謠。在其他幾首出色的曲子中還有精心製作的有關承諾的歌曲“Unbreak”，緊接著的歌曲“Start a Fire”是一首快節奏的有關…恩，性的歌曲。但如果它像這樣好的話，就不會有人再去爭論這些問題了，這首歌值得當一首打榜單曲。不管怎么說，整張專輯中最引人矚目的歌曲還是最後一首同名歌曲“11:59”，這是一首熟練的抒情歌曲，正好適合這樣的一個夏天。Ryan Star在歌中請求道：“請不要離開我，今晚可能是我們一生中最為美好的時刻。關上窗戶趕走旁人，我們不會浪費這時刻。這可能是今年來所有完整專輯中最恰當的結尾，Ryan Star應該得到這樣的一個機會，這將是他的。
