"I Belong to You"/"How Many Ways", alternatively "How Many Ways"/"I Belong to You" in the vinyl edition, is the fifth and final single from American R&B singer Toni Braxton's self-titled debut album, Toni Braxton (1993). The single was released in the United States in 1994 with both songs as double-sided songs.
