"Something in Common" is a song by singers Bobby Brown and then-wife Whitney Houston that was featured on Brown's 1992 album Bobby. The single version was re-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."
The song was released as a single in the United Kingdom, where it peaked at number 16. Although the song and its music video received moderate rotation in the United States, "Something in Common" was not released as a commercial single and was thus ineligible to chart on the Billboard Hot 100 and Hot R&B Singles charts; however, it peaked at numbers 32 and 30 on the Hot 100 Airplay and Hot R&B Airplay lists, respectively.
The official music video for the song was directed by Andy Morahan.
