Notes
- ^ Named after original Laibach vocalist Tomaž Hostnik. Music by Kraftwerk ("Ohm Sweet Ohm"), lyrics by Tomaž Hostnik.
- ^ a b The pieces "Valjhun" and "Bogomila" also derive from France Prešeren's epic. Valjhun is a Carinthian duke who converts Slavs into Christianity and Bogomila is Črtomir's sweetheart.
- ^ "Delak" is probably named after radical Slovenian theatrical artist Ferdo Delak (Croatian, Slovene).
- ^ a b c d The pieces "Koža", "Jägerspiel", "Herzfeld" and "Krst" are also found as bonus tracks on the Opus Dei CD.
- ^ "Wienerblut" music by Johann Strauss II
- ^ "Črtomir" is an old Slovenian name and means "to hate a peace". In France Prešeren's epic Krst pri Savici, the Pagan Črtomir converts to Christianity following the destruction of the temple of the goddess Živa on Bled Island.
- ^ Lyrics by Tomaž Hostnik.
- ^ "Herzfeld" is probably named after German satirist John Heartfield, b. Helmut Herzfeld, upon whose photomontages Laibach have based some of their images.
- ^ Arranged by Graeme Revell
