Insatiable is the debut studio album by Irish recording artist Nadine Coyle. It was released in the United Kingdom and Ireland on 8 November 2010,[1] through Black Pen Records. Looking to transition from the electropop styles of her previous music as part of Girls Aloud, Coyle began to work on a solo album during the hiatus of the group. She enlisted writers and producers such as Toby Gad, Guy Chambers and William Orbit, co-writing its thirteen tracks alongside them. Coyle began to embrace a more sophisticated sound with Insatiable, and its songs incorporate genres of pop rock and R&B.[2]

The title track was released as the album's sole single on 1 November 2010. Its poor commercial performance was highly criticised by the media, with reports attributing low physical sales to limited availability of the single.[3] The song debuted in the top forty in both the United Kingdom and Ireland, dropping out of the charts the following week.

Upon its release, Insatiable received generally mixed to unfavourable reviews from music critics, who complimented its cohesiveness and maturity, but criticised the homogeneity and lack of personality shown on the record. The album was distributed exclusively by grocery store chain Tesco, and debuted at number 47 on the UK Albums Chart, with first-week sales of 5,450 copies.[4]
