“Break Every Rule” is a single recorded by Grammy Award winning pop/rock singer Tina Turner. It was the title track to both Turner’s 1986 album of the same name and the name of her 1986/1987 world tour. It was released as a single in early 1987 to support the album and the tour. The song found limited success on the US and UK singles charts. The music video shows Turner performing on stage as well as behind-the-scenes footage of Turner and her band from the tour.
