"Never Enough" was the second single Jesus Jones pulled from Liquidizer, their 1989 debut album on Food Records, arriving in June between "Info Freako" and "Bring It on Down" and matching the first one's number 42 on the UK singles chart. The songwriting credit goes to the whole band; Craig Leon produced and Leigh Fenlon engineered.
Leon got the job after sessions with David Motion came to nothing, and he gave the album its signature tone, though the band would later be let down by the mix. Frontman Mike Edwards had bought a sampler in May 1988, and it shows: Liquidizer is a sample-heavy mash of techno and power pop with a hip-hop streak, and critics lined it up next to Pop Will Eat Itself, Renegade Soundwave and World Domination Enterprises.
