You've probably been hearing a lot of Whitney Houston songs lately. But this mash-up, which combines vocals from Whitney's "How Will I Know" with the background music from Robyn's "Dancing On My Own," has a genius all its own. Pairing the exuberant vocals off the 1985 hit -- Whitney's second number one single on the U.S. Billboard Top 100 -- with the syncopated electronic beats of Robyn's feel-good dance number results in a magical kind of alchemy.

"Dancing In Houston" (as creator Zooash names it) is one of the best feel-good, dance in your kitchen by yourself songs we've heard in a while. Listen below:
