Hey everyone. I hope you all are enjoying ‘Last Train Home’ from the “P.S. I Love You” soundtrack. If you haven’t purchased it yet, it’s definitely worth it. I come bearing a gift this holiday season - another interview with Ryan, featuring your questions.
Question: I’ve been a fan of yours since Stage and haven’t stopped since then. You said a while ago when you started making this album that once it was finished you would come out on the road. Any sign of a release date for the album or chance that you will be on the road some time soon? If so, will the fans be able to rock out on tambourine again? - Doug
Ryan: Ha - the old tambourine days! I am currently starting to look around at musicians to see what kind of band I will be putting together. This new stuff is like nothing else I have ever done so I am thinking it through before I get out there but in the new year I will probably have a better idea of what’s going on.

Posted November 18, 2007 by Kim Just wanted to touch base with you guys on the status of the latest interview. I know we took a tad bit longer than expected to get everything together, but Tiffany sent the questions in to Ryan at the end of last week. So be sure to check back over the course of the next few weeks to see if your questions made the cut!
Posted October 23, 2007 by Kim That’s right, we’re doing it again!
I know some of yo might have follow up questions after our last interview with Ryan, or perhaps you weren’t able to submit yours last time. Well Tiff will be sending him about ten more questions, so if you have anything else on your mind send it to kimberwyn AT gmail DOT com. Let’s make the deadline Oct. 31st (yup, Halloween!).
Posted September 19, 2007 by Tiff We here at RyanStarFans.com have had the chance to have an exclusive interview with Ryan, the man himself. Who asked the questions? You did! Ryan was awesome and took time to answer your questions about his past music, his life right now, and everything we have to look forward to, and that’s a lot!
Question: If you hadn’t pursued music, what profession do you think you’d have today (that isn’t music-related)? (From Miel)
Ryan: I used to believe that it was the only thing to live for and in some respects I still do but every time I pass a school or see one of those inspiring movies where a teacher makes a difference I feel like I could do that. I just worry about teaching high school girls. Especially these days. I saw that nude photo online of the girl from ‘High School Musical’ and remembered why I sing and don’t teach.
Question: Which of your life-changing moments stands out the most? (From Miel)
Ryan: There are a few like in everyone’s vault. The first day I heard Pearl Jam, the night I finished the book “Many Lives, Many Masters,” but in recent history I would say when I decided to swallow my indie cred pride and go on an international television show of cover songs to get my voice and name out there. I was so confused I almost went to a psychic the night before because I truly had no idea what was the right thing to do. I closed my eyes and dove in as you know and since then life has been different.
Question: What are your thoughts about your fans checking out and being fans of your older music, from the Stage album and earlier? (From Jackie)
Ryan: Hi Jackie! I was just out with Justin from Stage last night in my quick visit home in NYC. I told him I just watched the Stage DVD a few days ago and it fired me up to not only get out there in huge ways for r. star but for Stage as well. We were kids and had the dream and it faded with time. Nothing would make me happier than for all of that music to be heard by millions so that when I go touring I can play those songs of my childhood. The guys deserve it too so that we can say it all was for something.
Question: Of the songs going to be on the new album, which songs were the easiest to write, which were the most difficult? How did you decide which songs would be on the album? (From Jackie)
Ryan: This process was hardly easy this time around. I think between searching for my new statement and being my first proper solo album it was always a challenge. Writing a song called “11:59″ (for now) was memorable because it was the first new song to be written which ultimately opened the flood gates for the rest to follow. As far as what will be on the album I still don’t even know. I wrote a new song called ‘Orphans’ which I just recorded last week. The book isn’t closed yet.
More, under the jump!
