  Houston's second studio album, Whitney, produced her first three number-one songs on the chart. Her first was with the 12" remix of "I Wanna Dance with Somebody (Who Loves Me)" in July 1987, spending two consecutive weeks at the peak. She topped the chart five months later on December 26, with a remix of "So Emotional", which also spent two consecutive weeks atop the chart. "Love Will Save the Day" became her third chart-topper in August 1988, and was her last song to reach the peak in the 1980s. In March 1993, Houston returned to the top of the chart with "I'm Every Woman" which spent two consecutive weeks at number one. On January 29, 1994, "Queen of the Night" became her fifth number one song, and her second to reach the peak from The Bodyguard soundtrack album, following "I'm Every Woman".
  In 2019, ten years after her previous Billboard Dance number-one, “Million Dollar Bill", Houston posthumously scored her 14th. Norwegian DJ Kygo remixed Houston's Japan-exclusive 1990 version of “Higher Love”, which entered the top spot on issue date August 24, 2019.
