Whitney Video Countdown - Part 4 Perhaps more than any other video and single from Whitney's self-titled first album, "How Will I Know," helped
make the budding superstar a staple on MTV. Directed by Brian Grant, the high energy clip featured Whitney interacting with animated dancers against a backdrop
of vivid colors, and if you watch closely the final time that Whitney sings "I'm asking you 'cause you know about these things," you'll
get a glimpse of her Godmother, the Queen of Soul, Aretha Franklin! Released in November 1985, the single reached the top of the Billboard Singles Chart by
February 15, becoming Whitney's second #1 single, and, ironically, displacing her cousin, Dionne Warwicks "That's What Friends Are For."
