"Deep in Love" is a song by Romanian producer Tom Boxer and singer Morena, featuring guest vocals by English recording artist J Warner. It was released as a CD single in Italy on 31 October 2011 through Step and Go, while later made available for digital download in various countries on 14 February 2012 through Roton. The track was written by Boxer and Warner, and solely produced by Boxer; the latter came up with the song in Morocco in 2011 and recorded a demo while travelling to a concert there. He ultimately worked on the track for four months. A love song, its lyrics include a reference to the popular paradigm that men are from Mars and women are from Venus.

Filmed in a studio in Bucharest and on the Canary Islands, an accompanying music video for "Deep in Love" was uploaded to Roton's YouTube channel on 15 August 2011. For further promotion, the song was performed at the ZU Loves You event organized by Radio ZU. It reached the top 40 on Hungarian, Romanian, Polish and Italian music charts, while being awarded a Platinum certification in the latter region by the Federazione Industria Musicale Italiana (FIMI) for 30,000 copies sold.

Background and release

"Deep in Love" was written by Tom Boxer and J Warner — the latter of whom provides guest vocals — while production was solely handled by Boxer. Boxer composed the song in 2011 in Morocco; while she and Morena were driving to a show there by car, he came up with a melody and recorded a demo on his mobile phone. Work on "Deep in Love" was completed in four months, and the vocals were mixed at a studio in London.{{cite news|url=http://www.urban.ro/muzica/videoclipuri/tom-boxer---morena-feat-j-warner---deep-in-love-teaser-video|title=Tom Boxer & Morena feat.

Lyrics from the love song include "I'm from Venus, you're from Mars/When we're together, we create stars", on which Morena elaborated during an interview, saying that it describes two persons that share a special connection and love, "creat[ing] stars [...] high up in the sky". Boxer stated that he "[likes] to put some message" in his material, and that the aforementioned lyrics were inspired by the popular paradigm that men are from Mars and women are from Venus.{{cite news|url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eDot8Yrk-Ps&t=139s|title=Tom Boxer & Morena Interview|date=25 March 2012|access-date=21 June 2018|publisher=YouTube|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180621223019/https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eDot8Yrk-Ps&t=139s|archive-date=21 June 2018}}
