Carly Rae Jepsen's unofficial and unreleased music video for the song "Curiosity" gets leaked online Saturday by some random fan for the viewing pleasure of everybody, and according to the description of the leak, the video was shelved because it was "too sexy" for the 27-year-old Canadian singer's new-found teen demographic. The sexy clip features Jepsen caught up in an affair, which is a stark contrast from her family-friendly videos for "This Kiss," and "Call Me Maybe."
The Ryan Stewart-produced "Curiosity," the second single and title track from her debut EP, is an amazingly upbeat strong pop track that draws influences from dance and synthpop. Lyrically, the track alludes to a girl who is poorly treated by a bad boy, but she can't get out of her mind, and begs for more of his love. The track came out differently to anything Jepsen would done previously - more poppy than her other folk-styled tunes. "I was singing it in the mic, to demo it out, with these guts that I didn't know I had," Jepsen recalled. "And it was exciting. It was like a braver version of me that I never had experimented with before, at least not out loud to people."
"Curiosity" brings the same lighthearted vibe while touching on a more personal note, and it encompasses the feelings of a girl fighting to keep her relationship alive while struggling with the ever-present curiosity of 'what ifs.' It received generally positive reviews from contemporary critics, who deemed it as similar to Jepsen's previous hit single, "Call Me Maybe" with heavy dance beats and catchy hooks. Her voice sings the highs and lows of love and everything that comes along with it.
The Colin Minihan directed clip opens with Jepsen meeting up a guy at his home. The house seems like a fantasy with its endless labyrinth of doors and hallways and supernatural occurrences. Jepsen wears a form-fitting red dress walking through the home, but is later seen clad in lingerie as she kisses her lover in the bedroom. It's not a fairytale ending for the two as a second woman gets involved. Finding out the boy of her eye in “Call Me Maybe” was gay made for a funny moment, but Jepsen seeing her man with another woman in “Curiosity” is heartbreaking. How could anyone cheat on sweet and humble Jepsen?
