"Just Can't Get Enough" is a song by American group The Black Eyed Peas. The song was written by members will.i.am, apl.de.ap, Taboo and Fergie, along with Joshua Alvarez, Stephen Shadowen, Rodney "Darkchild" Jerkins, and Julie Frost, for the group's sixth studio album, The Beginning (2010). It was announced on January 21, 2011 as the album's second single.

The song has been a success on the charts, reaching the top-five in many countries, such as New Zealand (their twelfth top 5), Australia, Greece, France, United Kingdom and the United States, among others. The video for this song was filmed in Japan a week before the 2011 Tōhoku earthquake and tsunami happened. As of June 2011, the single has sold more than 2,400,000 digital units in the US.

The Beginning's second single was announced on The Black Eyed Peas' official website on January 21, 2011.

Rodney Jerkins and Julie Frost composed the basic song together, with Jerkins on piano and Frost contributing the lyrics and topline melody. The Darkchild production team of Tommy Brown and Bah then worked on the producing the track and contributing to the music composition before finally Will.I.Am and the Black Eyed Peas, in the words of Frost, "cut it up and gave it their own twist".

Member Apl.de.ap told Beatweek Magazine that he wanted this to be the follow up The Time (Dirty Bit) because "It's a different tempo and it's also paying homage to the ladies."

Group member Taboo explained the meaning of the song to MTV News as: "The message is knowing that when you're gone from somebody, especially when you're on tour, you can't get enough of them or you're just thinking about them and you just want to let them know that you're always there for them."

Andy Gill from The Independent said, positively, that: "other highlights include "Just Can't Get Enough" – not the Depeche Mode song – which vaults suddenly from the rare dignity of string-synth textures to a sweatily pumping techno finale". Lewis Corner from Digital Spy rated it three stars (out of five) and commented that: "The back-and-forth production - reminiscent of vintage arcade game Pong - comprises electronic synths and soft strings teamed with heavy beats and, of course, the obligatory vocoded "mega switch up" - prompting its transformation into a thumping techno endgame. Throw in some "LOL" text lingo and computerised vocals, and we can't help but think he's perhaps spent a little too much time in front of the PC for this one. You want to be careful Will, we hear they make your eyes go square".
