The album's first track "Radio ljubav" spoke about love in the media, in what was then a state of war in Croatia. "E moj druže beogradski" dealt with the end of Yugoslavia and the emptiness of its promises of unity. "Dođi gola, dođi bosa" was a love song. "Dom" was another song deeply influence by the war, as the song spoke about the sanctity of one's home. "Bili cvitak" was sung from the perspective of a Croatian soldier. The song's chorus, "A white flower in memory, an eternal love. For my people and for you, I had to die" was one of the most significant musically of the Croatian war period.

"E moj druže beogradski" and "Bili cvitak" were the album's biggest hits due to their patriotic, but pacifist, content.
