It is written by Dee Dee Halligan, Richard W. Palmer-James and Junior Torello, and produced by Halligan and Torello. The song was the last major Haddaway hit in several countries, particularly in Israel, Belgium (Flanders), where it reached the top 10.

      Critical reception


      AllMusic editor Jose F. Promis viewed "Catch a Fire" as a "fantastic, urgent, anthemic" song, adding that it "definitely deserved some form of exposure in the U.S.". James Masterton for Dotmusic described it as "a typically bouncy piece of Europop but not one it seems that is going to find chart success to match past hits such as What Is Love and I Miss You." A reviewer from Music Week rated it three out of five, writing that "Haddaway continues to make the pop game look easy with another manfully-sung sun 'n' surf stomper ripe for picking by Club Medders." James Hamilton from the magazine's RM Dance Update called it a "huskily crooned Euro canterer".


      Music video


      A music video was produced to promote the single. It was later published on YouTube in October 2012. The video has amassed more than 822,000 views as of September 2021.
