"Insatiable" is a song by Prince and the New Power Generation, from the 1991 album Diamonds and Pearls. It is a slow, simmering ballad that often draws comparisons to 1989's "Scandalous." The B-side was "I Love U In Me," which was originally the B-side to "The Arms of Orion." "Insatiable" was only released in the U.S. as a 7" single, a 12" promo was sent only to Urban radio stations, and the track was not released to Pop radio stations. It performed well on the R&B charts, reaching #3, but didn't break the Top-40 on the U.S. charts. Its single sales were moderate, and it received heavy airplay on Urban & UAC radio stations, but it did not make the Hot 100 airplay (the R&B airplay charts didn't appear until spring 1992).
