Live Performances and Cover Versions
On May 5, 1999, Paige performed "Crush" at the 1999 World Music Awards.
Emperor Entertainment Group of Hong Kong bought a license of the melody, and made a Cantonese version sung by Cantopop diva Joey Yung called "Unknown", which is included on her debut album, EP/JOEY, and compilation album, Love Joey 2. It won "Best Performance of Cover Song award". This becomes Joey's first big hit in the Hong Kong music industry, achieving charting success with 3 number-ones (out of 4 charts in Hong Kong). "Unknown" is still a remarkable and popular hit of Joey now.
