Whitney Houston - How Will I Know (Official HD Video)

[@BHarry-mx9py]

I had a baby girl in 1987 on Labor Day weekend, I got released without an official baby name. When the hospital called, wanting an official name, I said Whitney ( due to loving the name and talent)! My daughter is grown with four kids of her own, and loves her name! So hearing a Whitney Houston song to this day, makes me sappy! Lol

Whitney's voice is unmatched. This song is timeless Truly one of a kind

[@the_letter_b]

Agreed. I actually like this song (and video) the most of hers, even though "I Wanna Dance with Somebody" is more popular. This one has more of a distinctly 80s sound to it, though the lyrics were similar to 60s pop R&B style (quite a few 80s songs were late 50s to 60s influenced or straight up covers of songs from then). The latter was more polished and kind of maxed out, which became the norm for pop music from the 90s onward.

I just came from a Wendy Williams "bio" video (due to her health problems of course) and they played the interview with Whitney and seeing and hearing that made me love her even more because despite all her personal struggles, she was genuine. She didn't pretend to be perfect nor did she shy away from the scrutiny. She wasn't your stereotypical "diva" to the point where no diva has acted like her before or after. If Wendy didn't announce that its Whitney on the line you would've thought it was just one of her fans from the hood 😂😂

Mercury if they are the best male vocalists and I'd bet mine and my family lifes that nor M.J, nor Mercury would admit it but rather point someone else. Case with singer is just like the case with Your care: You can't say which one is "the best", since if You want to drive fast You'll need Ferrari, a "sportcoupe", to drive trough swamps and such You'll need a Jeep and to take all Your family You'd need sedan or minivan etc. Whitney had really powerful voice, she was universal singer, same with Madonna, but then You have vocalists like Tina Turner and Bonnie Tyler with probably the most beautiful and powerful rock voices, then You have Marriah Carey with her soft, perfect for slower songs voice etc. I'm not saying Huston can't sing or she is not great singer, she is but You can mention other who were better than she was at e.g ballads or pop songs, rock songs etc. I'd place her in my top 5 the best female vocalists with Madonna, Turner, Tyler and Riordan - and what's funny all of them could do any song and sound perfect.

In 1985 Whitney Houston released one of the greatest pieces of art in human history. The album contained this song, was nominated to Album of the Year and it is simply called "Whitney Houston". The greatest Love of All, is such a timeless classic, a song that breaks all boundaries, since it's a song that reaches to everyone, and can be felt by everybody. A song about not finding love in others, but finding love in ourselves.

[@manabrown5668]

+darkdevil905 So true

[@glorias4462]

Only Whitney can cover songs and made it top the chart as it's her own songs. Truly The Voice.

[@calam8286]

If there’s any doubt about her being a sensational and towering musical talent, let this be proof. Hope she had immense joy making this video because it is a joyous performance. RIP baby.

This song’s structure is so cool. The first verse is followed by a pre-chorus, then the chorus which has the same harmony as the verse, then there’s the “if he loves me” section that sets up the awesome sax solo and a downward key change(!) Such a rockin’ tune!

[@boogermaiden]

And the sax man also doing contemporary dance!

[@synthsprogrammer]

​@IsaiahJoel-oh3re That's such a bizarre comment. There were numerous guitar greats before Eddie Van Halen, and phenomenal use of sax in countless songs and styles in history including Seely Dan, Billy Joel, Blood Sweat and Tears, and countless others.

[@MsCherieSyncere]

I remember when she debuted this song at the Grammys. Lit the whole room up. She was the first vocalist I ever heard who sounded better live than on the recording. That is what I will remember about her. RIP Whitney❤

[@tonybuc67]

Flawless beauty!! With that gorgeous face, runway model body and THAT VOICE!!! She was a "once in a genration" talent and superstar who will always be a legend!! I have been a fan since the beginning when I first heard her duets with Jermaine Jackson, and Teddy Pendergrass in 1983 and 1984. When her album "Whitney Houston" came out in 1985 I was hooked. I knew then THAT my generastion was witnessing a legend in the making! I cried hard 10 years ago when she passed on. I will never stop listening to all the beautiful music she gave us while she was here. R.I.P Whitney Elizabeth Houston!! NO ONE WILL EVER MATCH YOUR TALENT OR SURPASS WHAT YOU GAVE THE WORLD!!!

It's funny to think that this song was originally intended for Janet Jackson but she passed on it, and this catapulted Whitney into stardom.

Funny how once it becomes someone's song it's hard to imagine another person having done it. It just doesn't seem like Janet would have been right for this song.

I'm an 80s baby. Whitney was one of the pop princesses of the 80s. "How Will I Know" was one of my favorites. The song and the music video. I had the 45 seven inch vinyl single. I used to think the lyrics were "I'm asking you 'cause you know about bee stings." Only when I got older did I realize that lyric was "these things". And here I thought Whitney was singing about the dangers of anaphylaxis.
