Legacy

Kozmetika was polled in 1998 as the 98th on the list of 100 greatest Yugoslav popular music albums in the book YU 100: najbolji albumi jugoslovenske rok i pop muzike (YU 100: The Best albums of Yugoslav pop and rock music).[2]

In 2006 the song "Utisci" was ranked #99 the B92 Top 100 Domestic Songs List.[3] The song has also been used as the theme song for the Olja Bećković political talk show Utisak nedelje broadcast on RTV Studio B and later on B92.[4] For the 20th anniversary of the talk show the Viva Vox Choir from Belgrade covered "Utisci" and the version has become the new theme song for the show.[5]

gollark: The only downsides are *minor* extra dereferencing overhead and additional space.
gollark: osmarksßspointers can point to:- local virtual memory- local physical memory- local disks- local files- other osmarksßspointers™- registers- arbitrary IPv4/6 addresses- URLs- arbitrary IPv4/6 addresses *and ports*- the output of short pieces of code embedded in the pointer
gollark: Actually, it should be 256 for osmarksßspointers™.
gollark: "Load far pointer" is only 80 bits → not 128 → uncool.
