''Dnevnik starog momka'' (trans. ''Diary of an Old Bachelor'') is the eleventh studio album released by Serbian and
former Yugoslav singer-songwriter
ÄorÄ‘e BalaÅ¡ević.
Balašević's first album after the
2000 political changes in Serbia, ''Dnevnik starog momka'' featured only love songs, each having a female name as its title (for this reason most songs remain better known by their unofficial titles, for an example: "Jaroslava" is better known as "Princezo, javi se", "Anđela" as "Moja je draga veštica" etc.). The first letters of the songs' names form the
acrostic
An acrostic is a poem or other word composition in which the ''first'' letter (or syllable, or word) of each new line (or paragraph, or other recurring feature in the text) spells out a word, message or the alphabet. The term comes from the Fre ...
"Olja je najbolja" (''Olja is the best''), which refers to Balašević's wife Olivera "Olja" Balašević.
