"Something in Common" is a song by singers Bobby Brown and then-wife Whitney Houston that was featured on Brown's 1992 album Bobby. Despite the album's release in mid-1992, this was recorded in September 1991 in Atlanta, Georgia, immediately after Bobby and Whitney became engaged. The single version was recorded in 1993 and also available on Brown's 1993 compilation album, Remixes in the Key of B. It stands as the couple's first musical collaboration and the only one released as a single. The song examines two unlikely people coming together as they find "something in common."
