Kid Rock is having the last laugh as his last album has sold over seven million copies and is still in the top 50 albums in the country nearly three years after its release.

Beginning with music that seems to invoke a reflective mood, "All You'll Ever Need to Know" basically delivers the message "happiness is what matters most in life."

While these three songs stick to the basic rock sound, other influences can be heard once one gets deeper into the album.
