Sam (trans. Alone) is the second studio album from Serbian and Yugoslav hard rock band Osvajači, released in 1995.
Sam is the band's first album recorded with keyboardist Nebojša Jakovljević, and the last studio album released by the original incarnation of the band, which split up two years after the album release.[1]
Beside original members of Osvajači, vocalist Zvonko Pantović, guitarist Dragan Urošević and drummer Miša Raca, Sam recording featured keyboardist Nebojša Jakovljević, who came in as the replacement for the original keyboardist Laza Ristovski, and bass guitarist Dejan Dačović, who replaced the original bass guitarist Saša Popović.[2] Ristovski made a guest appearance on the album, playing keyboards in the song "Maska (Sam)" "Mask (Alone)".[2] Ana Spasić, Jelisaveta Stamenković (vocalist for the band Agata), Mijo Babalj (former vocalist for the band Cveće) and Slobodan Ljubisavljević all made guest appearances on backing vocals.[2]
All songs written by Dragan Urošević (music) and Zvonko Pantović (lyrics).
The album's biggest hit upon its release was the ballad "S kim čekaš dan".[3]
The song "Maska (Sam)" was covered by Serbian progressive/power metal band Alogia on their 2006 live album Priče o vremenu i životu – Live at SKC (Tales of Time and Life – Live at SKC), Dragan Urošević making a guest appearance on the song.[4]
In 2011, "Maska (Sam)" was polled, by the listeners of Radio 202, one of 60 greatest songs released by PGP-RTB/PGP-RTS during the sixty years of the label's existence.[5]
