In this brief clip from a 1961 episode of The Graham Kennedy Show, singer Pilita Corrales (1937–2025) performs the song 'What's New' by Bob Haggart and Johnny Burke (1939).
Her single ‘Come Closer to Me’ was a hit in 1959, making Corrales one of the first women to make the Australian pop charts with a locally produced record.
Corrales recorded at least three LPs in Australia and became an early television star before returning to the Philippines in 1963. There, she starred in many films and on television, recorded more than 135 albums and appeared as a judge on the Philippines edition of The X Factor.
