Last Train Home EP is an EP by singer/songwriter Ryan Star including four previously unreleased songs and two music videos. It reached No. 42 on Top Heatseekers chart.[2] The title song was released as the first single off Star's major label debut 11:59. It was also featured on the soundtrack for the film P.S. I Love You (2007).
All songs were originally waiting to be released on 11:59, while the album release date kept being pushed back, from 'late 2008' eventually to August 2010.[3] “I wanted to make sure the fans had some music because they have been waiting a long time,” Star told Alternative Addiction about the reason for releasing the EP. "[..] just to have something out there right now."[4]
All tracks on the EP included songs that had been on TV and movies.[4] "Brand New Day" was the main theme song for the FOX TV show Lie to Me.[5] "This Could Be the Year" was used on Super Bowl promo spots in 2009,[6] as well as the theme song for WWE pay-per-view event Survivor Series 2008. "Right Now" was picked up for promos for "The Philanthropist" on NBC, and it has also been used by ESPN.[7]
