"'Zar je ljubav spala na to (Obećanja)" (Has Love Come to That (Promises)) is a song by Croatian pop band Magazin featuring Bosnian rock singer Mladen Vojičić Tifa. It was written by Croatian songwriter and lyricist Vjekoslava Huljić and produced by Tonči Huljić. It was released as a single through Croatia Records in 2001. The song was well received by both of the singers' fanbases. Commercially, the song achieved success in Croatia and the wider Yugoslav region. A music video was released which features the band and both of the lead vocalists singing the song along with scenes from the 2000 movie What Women Want.

In 2022, Rozga re-released the song in an acoustic version featuring Croatian pop singer Matija Cvek for her fourth studio album and first acoustic album titled Minut Srca Mog (2022). The rework fared well on the Croatian airplay chart where it managed to peak at number 4 in the week of its release. A music video directed by Dario Radusin was also released on 15 September showing the duo singing the song together on the streets of Zagreb and in a studio. The acoustic rework was performed live at the singer's concerts during the Minut Srca Mog Tour (2022–23) and during televised appearances.
In 2001, Jelena Rozga served as the main vocal of the famous pop band Magazin while Mladen Vojičić Tifa was the former member of the popular Yugoslav rock band Bijelo dugme.
