In December the same year, she also competed at the World Popular Song Festival in Tokyo, winning both the Grand Prix and the Most Outstanding Performance Award with the song "Parigi a Volte Cosa Fa".[1] [2] From the mid-1970s she slowed her activities, focusing her career on international appearances.[1] [2]
