Nora Aunor’s popularity increased when she became the champion of the popular local amateur singing contest Tawag ng Tanghalan. In 1968, Alpha Records contracted her upon the recommendation of Carmen Soriano. This marked the beginning of the Golden Age of Local Recording. Although Aunor’s early singles were not major hits, she broke all record sales with her series of hits which included "It's Time to Say Goodbye", "Silently", "Forever Loving You","It's Not Unusual", and countless others. In her seven years with Alpha, she was able to set all-time high record sales which up to this day has not been surpassed. She had more than 100 hit singles, more than 15 hit albums, and several extended plays. She is the country’s only Superstar.
