so, this is nadine coyle's debut solo single 'insatiable'. unlike the first time i heard 'fight for this love,' when i first heard insatiable it was instantly catchy and likable. unfortunately for nadine, she is not cheryl cole. she is not the nations 'sweetheart'. in fact, it seems in recent times the media have painted her as a snob who has turned her back on ireland, girls aloud and general down-to-earthness for a flashy L.A lifestyle. i myself, a huge girls aloud fan, used to adore nadine, and now she is at the bottom of the 5 for me(along with sarah, who I just find a bit blah).
all of this said, at least her record-company-people realized she couldn't just release shit-on-a-stick and have it be a sure hit(unlike cheryl, who literally could have done just that). she has released a refreshing pop-song that has a sorta 80's/90's rock/pop power ballad feel. the reason it is refreshing, is that pop stars, hip hop stars, r&b stars, rock stars etc are all releasing what sounds like remixes of the music they used to release. I love electro music, but when kelis and co. are all doing dance then there is no variety in the pop world.
so thankyou nadine, for releasing something a bit different to what everyone else is doing. i am not sure you have a hit on your hands, purely because people seem to think u r a skinny bitch, but its a nice song. if you need a hit, consider teaming up with david guetta like everyone else.
