Breaking Hearts is the eighteenth studio album by English musician Elton John, released in 1984.

Breaking Hearts was also the first album since Victim of Love to not feature a string or horn section on any track.

This is one of only two albums with John's classic band to which (unofficial member) Ray Cooper did not contribute at all, the other being 1973's Don't Shoot Me I'm Only the Piano Player.

Apart from the 1984 Breaking Hearts Tour (both the European and the North American leg), no other songs from the album have been performed live except "Restless" and "Passengers", on the following 1985–1986 Ice on Fire World Tour (the latter song only performed on the UK leg).

All tracks are written by Elton John and Bernie Taupin, except where notedTrack numbering refers to CD and digital releases of the album.
