Whitney Houston - Where Do Broken Hearts Go

About "Where Do Broken Hearts Go"

"Where Do Broken Hearts Go" is a song recorded by American singer Whitney Houston for her second studio album, Whitney (1987). It was released as the fourth single from the album on February 25, 1988. The song was written by Frank Wildhorn and Chuck Jackson and produced by Narada Michael Walden. A pop ballad set in the key of D major, the record is about someone seeking for a former lover to return after a breakup. Upon its release, the song received mixed reviews from critics.

The song helped Houston to set an all-time chart record on the Billboard Hot 100, in which it became Houston's seventh consecutive number one single on the chart, beating the record of six, previously held by The Beatles and The Bee Gees. As of 2024, the record still holds. It also made Houston just the second artist to land four number one singles off one album after Michael Jackson had set the record with his Bad album and made her the first female artist to do so.

Both the song and the song's music video, directed by Peter Israelson, received some negative reaction from some members of Houston's core black audience who accused the singer of "selling out". Houston would later perform the song in full on her Moment of Truth World Tour, while in later tours such as the I'm Your Baby Tonight World Tour and The Bodyguard World Tour, portions of the song was included in a "Love Medley" segment, usually near the end of the medley.
