Insomniac is the eighth studio album (and fourth English-language album) from singer Enrique Iglesias. The album is produced by John Shanks, Kristian Lundin, Sean Garrett, Anders Bagge, Jesper Andersen, Mark Taylor, Stargate, and Maratone. It also contains his first collaboration with a rapper (Lil Wayne) as well as a cover of indie band Ringside's "Tired of Being Sorry".

This album is said to be different from his prior albums, incorporating a more contemporary pop style than his previous albums. As well as the aforementioned hip hop collaboration, the album also includes elements of R&B and Latin pop (the latter as on his previous albums). It was released on June 12, 2007 in the USA and worldwide on June 11, 2007.
