About How Will I Know

"How Will I Know" is a song recorded by American singer Whitney Houston for her eponymous debut studio album, which was released in February 1985. The song was released by Arista Records in November that year as the album's third single. Composed by George Merrill and Shannon Rubicam, the song was originally intended for American singer Janet Jackson, but she passed on it. Houston then recorded the song with altered lyrics and production from Narada Michael Walden. The lyrics speak about the protagonist trying to discern if a boy she likes will ever like her back. "How Will I Know" received mainly positive reviews from music critics. The song became Houston's second number-one single on the US Billboard Hot 100. It spent two weeks atop the chart and also became Houston's first chart topper on the Canadian RPM Top 100 Singles chart. Its success was worldwide: it reached the top-ten in Sweden, Ireland, Norway and the United Kingdom, and the top 20 in the Netherlands, New Zealand and Switzerland.
