IVANA remakes Jennifer Paige and Cascada for the dancefloor
By Markus Hamence
Adelaide-based dance artist IVANA has released club-ready covers of Jennifer Paige's "Crush" and Cascada's "Everytime We Touch", available now on streaming platforms. She performs both tracks live at Paradise Beach Club in Mykonos on 6 August 2026.
Rising Australian dance artist IVANA has released two brand-new covers, delivering her own club-ready reimagining’s of two era-defining pop anthems: Jennifer Paige’s “Crush” and Cascada’s “Everytime We Touch”, available now on all streaming platforms.
Known for putting her own euphoric, dancefloor-first spin on pop, IVANA turns her attention this time to two songs that shaped her own musical upbringing, reworking each with shimmering production and her unmistakable vocal stamp while staying true to what made the originals so beloved.
“Crush” has long held a special place for IVANA. Explaining the reasoning behind the cover, she says: “‘Crush’ was one of my favourite songs growing up! I absolutely loved it, and I was such a huge Jennifer Paige fan. Being now in my early 20’s, I always felt like not enough people in my generation knew the song, so creating a fresh club version felt like a no-brainer. It was my way of bringing such an incredible track to a whole new audience while still keeping what made the original so special.”
The second track sees IVANA take on Cascada’s dancefloor classic “Everytime We Touch”, a track she’d already made a fixture of her live sets before bringing it into the studio. She explains:
“I honestly just wanted to play ‘Everytime We Touch’ in my live set because it’s such an iconic song. I saw it was coming up to 20 years since it was first released, and it just felt like the perfect time to put my own spin on it. We started playing it at shows, and the reaction was honestly crazy! Everyone was singing every word. After that, releasing this version just felt right.”
IVANA will perform both reworks live at Paradise Beach Club in Mykonos on 6 August 2026.
With a string of buzzworthy singles already under her belt, streaming collectively in the millions in just her first few years since arriving on the global music scene which include “Need Your Love”, Burning”, “Beating Heart”, “Liar Liar” and “Ooh La La La”.
IVANA continues to cement herself as one of Australia’s most exciting voices in the dance and electronic space internationally.
