"K.K. Ballad" is a K.K. Slider song that first appears in Doubutsu no Mori. Its style derives from the modern meaning of "ballad," as in a sentimental ballad, rather than the traditional storytelling format seen in classical ballads. The song is slow-paced with a melancholic melody, and its aircheck features a string section, a light rhythm, and a plucked violin playing the lead.

The song has a distinctly different melody in Doubutsu no Mori and Doubutsu no Mori+ than in the international release of Animal Crossing. The change remains in all subsequent games. It shares this trait with "DJ K.K."
