Curiosity is the second extended play (EP) by Canadian singer-songwriter Carly Rae Jepsen. It was released on February 14, 2012, by 604, Schoolboy, and Interscope Records. Initially listed on the iTunes Store with a full-length tracklist, Curiosity was cut down to a six-song EP just days before its release. The full-length album titled Kiss was released 7 months later containing only two songs from the EP on its standard edition. Curiosity is an electropop and pop EP, and its tracks are influenced by various genres such as dance-pop and R&B. The EP's lyrical content is mostly about love.
Curiosity was praised for its quality of the tracks and was labelled mainstream. It peaked at number six on the Canadian Albums Chart. The lead single, "Call Me Maybe", was a commercial success, topping the charts in several countries and is one of the best-selling singles of all time, with over 18 million copies sold. The title track served as the second and final single almost a year later, and was modestly successful in Jepsen's home country of Canada.
