The album's title is a humorous pun on the musical term Perpetuum mobile (literally meaning "perpetual motion"), in which the second word is replaced by fritule (also known as "fritula" in singular), a type of traditional sweet pastry popular in Dalmatia. In line with the pun, the album cover depicts a drawing of a fritula and the CD notes include a recipe for preparing fritule. This albums is TBF-s most successful album with more than 75,000 copies sold.
