Known for her sweet and emotive voice, Teng's performance contributed greatly to the song's success.
The Moon Represents My Heart quickly became a classic, extending its popularity beyond Asia and gaining recognition in Western countries. The song's enduring appeal is in its romantic theme, heartfelt lyrics, and Teng's emotive delivery. It has been covered by numerous artists in various languages.
