"Insatiable"
Song

"Insatiable" is the debut solo single by Irish recording artist Nadine. Co-written and produced by Guy Chambers, it was released as the lead single from Nadine's debut solo album of the same name (2010). The pop rock song "showcases a harder, guitar-led sound" for Nadine. The accompanying music video for "Insatiable" was directed by Wayne Isham and features Nadine performing with a live band against various backdrops.

Background

"Insatiable" is Nadine Coyle's first solo single after seven years as a member of BRIT Award-winning girl group Girls Aloud, who achieved a streak of twenty consecutive top ten singles on the UK Singles Chart. During the group's hiatus, Nadine announced plans to release a solo album during the group's hiatus.[1][2][3] Nadine worked with a number of famous songwriters and producers, including Guy Chambers.[2][4] Nadine said she knew it was going to be a hit as soon as they finished it, because it was so catchy. She said, "I just knew we had something special when we wrote that song."[5] BBC said the song "showcases a harder, guitar-led sound for the pop singer."[6] Nadine revealed the song was intended to sound "sexy."[7]

Release

A clip of the single appeared on Nadine's website on 6 September.[6] The song received its official world premiere on In:Demand on 10 September.[8] Nadine visited The Scott Mills Show on 15 September, giving the song its BBC Radio 1 premiere.[9] She will perform at London's G-A-Y on Saturday, 30 October.[10] She is also set to perform the single on The X Factor, series 7, on the live finals.[citation needed]

Critical reception

The song has received acclaim from contemporary music critics. Popjustice said it "thunders across the horizon like a furious pop battlehorse. We like this a lot."[11] Heat magazine described it as "very good indeed. And massive. And dramatic. And sing-songy. We love it quite a lot, actually."[12] Digital Spy also praised the song, describing it as "a bombastic synthy pop morsel with more swagger than the hardest lad in the upper sixth."[13] It has been called "ballsy and Eighties-influenced", receiving comparisons to The Bangles.[14][15]

Music video

The music video was directed by Wayne Isham.[16] Wayne Isham said of Nadine, “I loved Nadine’s voice and songs from first listen as well as her focus on authentic performance and a vision as to how she wanted me to work with her. I’m inspired to take this to an even higher level. This girl rocks."[17] Nadine said, "I viewed presentation reels by tons of talented directors, but Wayne's feel for capturing live performance as well as lighting and camera work spoke to me straight away."[17] The video was filmed in Los Angeles starting on 11 September.[17] It was deemed "too sexy" for television and had to be re-edited.[18][19] Pictures appeared in tabloids on 25 September.[20] It premiered on 3 October.[21]

The video features Nadine performing in front of black and white backgrounds in a number of outfits. There are also scenes with rain falling behind her. She is accompanied by a live band. Nadine received media attention for her "sexy" looks.[19][20][22][23] Ryan Love of Digital Spy said that he was excited for the video, but was ultimately disappointed.[24] The music video was often compared to the video for Nadine's Girls Aloud bandmate Cheryl Cole and her video for "Promise This".[23][25]
