A year later, composer Zdenko Runjić and Dragojević, released the song "Galeb i ja" (Seagull and I). It proved to be a big hit across the former Yugoslavia and made Dragojević a household name. This was followed by hits "Romanca" (Romance), "Oprosti mi, pape" (Forgive Me, Father), "Stari morski vuk" (An Old Sea Wolf). Runjić would further collaborate with Dragojević on further 200 songs, until Runjić's death. Between 1975 and 1980, the Dragojević/Runjić duo dominated the music scene of the former Yugoslavia. Part of the secret of their success was a third contributor, Jakša Fiamengo, who wrote the lyrics to some of Dragojević's most iconic songs, namely: "Nadalina", "Piva klapa ispo' volta" (The Klapa sings Under the Volt), "Karoca", "Ništa nova" (Nothing New), "Infiša san u te" (I am Crazy About You), and "Ostavljam te samu" (I leave You Alone). In 1990 Dragojević won the Split Festival with "Ti si moj san" (You are my Dream), and the Jugovizija Jamboree with the song "Sreća je tamo gdje si ti" (Happiness is Where You are), both collaboration with Zorica Kondža.
