The album contains 11 songs which composed of three OPM original [a] and seven revival tracks. [5] It is her third studio album under Star Records, and was released on April 27, 2008. Toni stated that this album is very close to her, saying "Ang laki talaga ng pasasalamat ko sa Star Records dahil pinagkakatiwalaan nila ako with another album. Lahat ng kanta dito ay close to my heart at masaya ako nang i-record ko ang mga kanta" ([I] am very thankful to Star Records because they trusted me with another album. All of the songs here are close to my heart and I am happy when I started recording them). Moreover, according to Nixon Sy, Star Records' promo unit head, said "Her first album with Star Records, Toni: You Complete Me , was certified gold, and her sophomore album, Falling In Love , was awarded platinum. At such a young age, Toni is being recognized as one of the movers of the music industry and it's a privilege for Star Records to produce another winner for her." [6]
