''Idemo dalje'' was released in 1995, with the exact date not being known but a time window established. The songs were written at a time with very many and very fast territory changes in the war. The title track is of very happy nature and giving the tone that the war is nearly over with Serbia as the winner. He sings that Srebrenica has already fallen and that Žepa will too, giving that song a timeframe of being between the 11th of July 1995 and the 26th of July 1995. Track A4, "[[Vratićemo sve]]", already has a dramatic shift in tone as it sounds much sadder compared to the last three songs. Baja sings about territorial exchanges and that Krajina was "given away", he mentions the fall of Grahovo but also says that Knin should not give itself up. This gives "Vratićemo sve" a timeframe of the 28th of July and the 5tth of August 1995. Considering the time it takes to record, produce and duplicate an album, among other things, it can safely be assumed that ''Idemo dalje'' was released sometime in August 1995. The album was possibly even rushed to be released, when taking into account the lack of a double fold, which was present on all Baja albums since 1993's [[Rat i mir|''Rat i mir'']], the pictures for the front and back of the cover being reused from shoots as early as late 1994's [[Pobediće istina|''Pobediće istina'']] (hence the credit "choice of photographs" given to his wife, Meri, instead of a photographer being credited), the inclusion of a cover of "[[Ponosan sam što sam Srbin]]", the filler song, "[[Teče Drina]]" and the overall mood change present throughout the album, with some songs being more complex than others. | ''Idemo dalje'' was released in 1995, with the exact date not being known but a time window established.

The song "[[Ponosan što sam Srbin]]" would be featured on the album ''Srpskim radikalima'' two years later and the title track would be featured in the compilation ''[[The Best Off]]'' the following year. The photo used for the j-card back would be repurposed six years later for the album, [[Đe si legendo|''Đe si legendo'']]. | The song "[[Ponosan što sam Srbin]]" would be featured on the album ''Srpskim radikalima'' two years later and the title track would be featured in the compilation ''[[The Best Off]]'' the following year.

The company's upload of the remastered version is Generacide's fan remaster with the addition of fades. The cover image used in this version on digital streaming platforms removes the track listing and miscellaneous logos originally present on the cover. The reason for these changes are unknown. | ||
