Background

In 2006, Rozga performed at the 2006 Dora national festival, Croatia's show for the Eurovision Song Contest, performing the song "Oprosti mala". That performance is considered the "farewell" performance of the group. Namely, the same day, Rozga appeared performing under her name with the song "Ne zovi me Marija" and thus started her solo career. The summer of the same year, she performed the song "Ja znam dobro što mi je" at the Split Music Festival. In August 2006, the album Oprosti Mala was released through Croatia Records.[1] In 2007, she performed the songs "Nemam" at the Dora and "Gospe Moja" at the Split Festival. Due to the success of the songs, in September 2007, the re-release of Oprosti Mala was published in which besides the previously released, the aforementioned two songs were also released.[2]

Content

The standard edition of the album contains 13 new songs, while the re-edition contained 15 songs. Authors of most songs were the Huljić duo, consisting of Vjekoslava and Tonči Huljić; only the songs "Roza boja" and "Sve mi tvoje oči govore" were written by the authors Đorđe Novković and Željko Pavičić. Remi Kazinoti was the producer of all songs. Despite the original songs, the album also featured two covers including "Bilo bi super", a reworked version of a single by the group Magazin when Danijela Martinović was the lead singer and "Lijepa samo za tebe", a cover of the song "I Could Fall in Love" (1995) by the Mexican-American singer Selena Quintanilla. The album included three remixes produced by Motiwwwo. The album was mostly a pop record similar to records of the group Magazin when Rozga was still the main vocal. "Gospe Moja" was the exception as it featured a renowned Dalmatian sound.

Commercial success

The album debuted at the top of the Croatian Albums Chart immediately after its released in the 31st week of 2006.[3] The following week it landed at position three and the week afterwards it fell to the fifth position.
