Burn is the third studio album by American country music artist Jo Dee Messina, released on August 1, 2000 by Curb Records.

Her first No. 1 Billboard album on the Top Country Albums charts, it also hit No. 19 on the Billboard 200. "That's the Way" served as the album's lead-off single, spending four weeks at the top of the Billboard country music charts and becoming a major pop hit, peaking at #25. "Closer" was supposed to be the first single but was switched last minute (they filmed a video for it and it's included on her DVD video collection). Following it was the title track (previously recorded by Tina Arena on her album In Deep) which became a #2 hit on the country music charts and Top 20 hit on the Hot Adult Contemporary Tracks, it gave Messina her first entry on the latter charts. "Downtime" peaked at #5 on the country music charts, followed by another Number One in the Tim McGraw duet "Bring on the Rain". Finally, "Dare to Dream" peaked at #23 in mid-2002. The album has sold over one million copies and was certified Platinum.

Commercial performance

Burn debuted at number one on the Top Country Albums chart and number 19 on the Billboard 200. It would be certified Gold by the RIAA for sales of 500,000 within 20 days.[2]
