Title: Their 15 Minutes Are Up&#65533;
Product review: Sugar Ray busted through the music scene in a BIG way in 1997 with their smash hit "Fly." This song propelled their album into multi-platinum status and brought immediate fame. But now, capitolizing on the concept of 15 minutes of fame (which they are so incredibly close to...), they have returned with a watered-down, stale, boring, and incredibly unstylistic follow-up. "14:59" brings to light the sole soft song on their previous album, "Fly." Whereas usually the record was dominated by hard rock, punk music, this album is mainly light-hearted, jazzy pop/rock riffs, like the delightfully catchy "Every Morning" or "New Direction." Unfortunately though, aside from these two standouts, the record is much embarassment. The cover version of Steve Miller's band "Abracadabra." Enough said. It's lame!
