How Many Ways (Toni Braxton song)
"How Many Ways" is a song by American singer Toni Braxton. It was written by Braxton, Vincent Herbert, Ben Garrison, Keith Miller, and Noel Goring for her self-titled debut album, while production was helmed by Herbert. The song is built around a sample of "God Make Me Funky" by American jazz-fusion band The Headhunters featuring Pointer Sisters. Due to the inclusion of the sample, several other writers are credited as songwriters. Lyrically, the protagonist of the composition declares there are many ways in which she loves her man.
The song was released as the album's fifth and final single on a double-A-side along with "I Belong to You". It peaked at number 28 on the Billboard Hot 100 on January 21, 1995. A remix version of "How Many Ways", produced by R. Kelly, also was released to radio and music television stations. An accompanying music video features Braxton and actor Shemar Moore riding in a car, frolicking in a playground, and on a veranda.Track listings
