Critical reception
A reviewer from Billboard magazine described "Burn" as a "beautiful love song", adding that Arena "has glorious pipes, a charismatic presence, and the song-writing savvy of a lifelong hitmaker."{{cite magazine|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=SQ0EAAAAMBAJ&pg=PA35|title=Reviews & Previews: Albums|editor-last=Verna|editor-first=Paul|magazine=Billboard|volume=111|issue=14|page=35|date=3 April 1999|access-date=15 March 2023}} Sunday Mirror commented, "She's got a huge pair of lungs for a tiny lass, and this power ballad fair simmers."Sunday Mirror. 28 February 1999. p. 48.

"Ti voglio qui"
{{More citations needed section|date=November 2022}}
"Ti voglio qui" is the Italian version of "Burn", translated by Fabrizio V Zee Grossi. As an alternate-language version of a hit single, this release lacked substantial mainstream appeal and therefore failed to make any significant commercial impact. Despite being released at the same time, the two songs are often credited as the first and second singles from the In Deep album. It is credited as a single released from this album due to its connection to "Burn" and the two songs' simultaneous releases, despite being a non-album track. This quickly made its limited CD single a highly sought-after collector's item, as it was the only way to obtain this song until it was re-released on the limited edition 2CD version of the Greatest Hits 1994-2004 album. The song can still be purchased from a number of Australian legal music download services.
