Teng's songs over the following decade revolutionized music in China. Her singing, described as 'soft, melodious, often whispery and restrained,' was considered the 'ideal' in gangtai music at that time.[6] The style was in striking contrast to the then officially sanctioned songs in mainland China which were often revolutionary songs, and made a strong impact on its listeners.[6] She became so popular that 'within months the country was literally flooded with [her] songs.'[6] 'The Moon Represents My Heart', however, is often cited as one of her best-known or most popular pieces.[13][14][15][16]
