Career[]

Her professional career began in 1975, with the release of her first single, "Na Drini ćuprija" (The Bridge on the Drina), written by Obren Pjevović. She was most popular during the 1980s although she has been active to date.

A month after the fall of Vukovar during the Croatian War of Independence, in the winter of 1991–92, she, Era Ojdanić and Mira Kosovka sung at a concert for Serb soldiers in the occupied city.[1][2] According to her, she was forced by armed soldiers to sing at the concert.[3]

In 2021, Swedish footballer Zlatan Ibrahimović used a snippet of her song "Jutro je" (It's Morning) at Sanremo Music Festival. The snippet subsequently achieved significant notoriety in Italy.
