  • Curiosity Killed the Cat è stato un gruppo musicale pop inglese formato nel 1984. La formazione era composta da Ben Volpeliere-Pierrot alla voce, Julian Godfrey Brookhouse alla chitarra, Nick Thorp al basso e Migi Drummond alla batteria. Lo stile variava tra acid jazz, soul, funky e pop. Il gruppo è attivo sino al 1993 e vanta tre album in studio, di cui uno postumo nel 1994. Il nome deriva da un motto popolare inglese, traducibile con "la curiosità uccise il gatto", e dal significato paragonabile al proverbio italiano "tanto va la gatta al lardo che ci lascia lo zampino".

  • Curiosity Killed the Cat (Кьюрио́сити килд зе кэт) — британская поп-группа. Добилась успеха в британских чартах в конце 1980-х — начале 1990-х годов. Как пишет музыкальный сайт AllMusic, группа была частью теперь забытого «Британского вторжения» конца 1980-х годов, когда такие британские группы, как «Johnny Hates Jazz», «» и «Curiosity Killed the Cat» пытались «заманить американскую публику отполированной амальгамой голубоглазого соула и лёгкого фанка». В начале 1990-х басист покинул группу, и, объявленный как "Curiosity", они сотрудничали с Саймоном Коуэллом, записывая "Hang On in There Baby" на альбоме Back to Front (ru)
