Title

According to an interview with Adams on Canada AM, the title "11" was chosen because it is his eleventh album of completely original material, outside of live or compilation records, but including soundtrack. In addition, Adams mentioned on another interview [ [http://www.songwriters.de/inhalt/kuenstler/bryanadams/564/artikel Songwriters | Bryan Adams | Infotexte ] ] : cquote|I haven't really thought about the other associations that go along with the numerology of eleven. Although I think there is already people that are speculating all over the place. But truthfully from my standpoint there's no hidden meaning behind it.|

Re-release

On October 05, 2008 a new version of 11 was announced on his official website along with a new DVD. The new CD features the original 11 tracks, plus the 2 songs released as B-sides "Way of the World" and "Miss America", along with a new "Chicane mix" of "She's Got a Way" and a new song "Saved".
