Which song became Whitney Houston's record-setting seventh consecutive Hot 100 number-one?

“Where Do Broken Hearts Go” became Whitney Houston’s record-setting seventh consecutive Hot 100 number-one single.

The ballad was written by Jimmy Jam, Terry Lewis, and James “Jimmy” Wildhorn, and appeared on Houston’s 1987 album Whitney. It was released as the album’s fourth U.S. single and entered the Billboard Hot 100 at No. 47 on February 27, 1988.

The song reached No. 1 during the week of April 23, 1988, after nine weeks on the chart. Its victory extended Houston’s unprecedented run of seven consecutive chart-toppers, beginning with “Saving All My Love for You” and continuing through “How Will I Know,” “Greatest Love of All,” “I Wanna Dance with Somebody,” “Didn’t We Almost Have It All,” and “So Emotional.”

A common mix-up is choosing “So Emotional,” the previous single in the sequence. “Where Do Broken Hearts Go” was the song that completed the record-setting seven-hit run.
