Kings Ballad includes 19 tracks and the total length is 49 minutes from start to finish. The problem with this is that a good amount of the tracks are essentially skits that have been placed on the CD to fill space. There are 10 tracks that are under 3 minutes in length and this leaves the listener wanting more. I would have liked for the songs to be longer at the expense of having less songs on the CD. In reality this CD should only be about 10 songs but the tracks are placed on to make it look like a better deal. The tracks that I enjoyed the most are Simple Advice, Doobie Down and Simple Love. However, I don't think these tracks are worth spending $10 on and I did not like any other tracks. The single Kings Ballad is a tribute to Michael Jackson that is simply boring. The lyrics seem to come from her heart but this tribute is late and lacks any true lyrical content. If you like this CD you will enjoy music by Adriana Evans, Platinum Pied Pipers, and Mayer Hawthorne. I would suggest that you save the money instead of buying Kings Ballad because there are very few songs with any replay value. I enjoyed just three tracks on this CD so I rate it 2/5.
