But the other single releases - 'Beat of Love,' 'Head On,' and 'Say Goodbye' - only continued the soundalike concept, and Regina became a one-hit act. Additionally, 'Love Time' and 'Bring Me All Your Love' do a good job of meshing pop/dance radio trends with jazzy R&B shades. The standouts are the riveting R&B/rock fusion 'Sentimental Love' the snazzy title cut, especially thanks to its playful lyrics and the light, Motown-esque soul groove of 'Just Like You.' On these cuts, Regina sounds her most spirited, and the arrangements are vibrant. A healthy supply of session singers (including Gwen Guthrie, Tawatha, Siedah Garrett, and Evan Rogers) doesn't hurt, either. But not all of the cuts suffer from this syndrome, and the singer proves herself more substantial in both areas than La M. Unfortunately, the strong attempt to write and sing Madonna-esque songs does detract at times. She was actually on record before Madonna, fronting the band Regina Richards & Red Hot on an obscure A&M album in 1981 the next year releasing the independent solo single, 'Deep Dreaming.' While Curiosity is much different than the 'Head On' pop/rock sound she established with her earlier material, her songwriting and vocal abilities are perfectly intact here. Contrary to popular belief at the time, Regina was not a start-up.
