Break Every Rule is the sixth solo studio album by Tina Turner. It was released on September 8, 1986, through Capitol Records.[1] It was the follow-up to Turner's globally successful comeback album, Private Dancer, released two years earlier. The lead single "Typical Male" peaked at number two for three consecutive weeks in October 1986, while "Two People" and "What You Get Is What You See" reached the top 20. "Back Where You Started" earned Turner her third consecutive Grammy Award for Best Rock Vocal Performance, Female in 1987. It was Turner's first solo album of original songs.[2]
Composition
The original A-side of the vinyl album was entirely produced by Graham Lyle and Terry Britten, the team behind Turner's 1984 single "What's Love Got to Do with It", while side B included tracks produced by Bryan Adams, Bob Clearmountain, Mark Knopfler and Rupert Hine. Out of the album's eleven tracks, eight were released as singles, either in Europe or the United States or both; "Typical Male" (U.S. No. 2) featuring Phil Collins on drums, "What You Get Is What You See" (U.S. No. 13), "Two People" (Spain No. 1, U.S. R&B No. 18), David Bowie's "Girls" (Poland No. 11), "Back Where You Started" (U.S. Rock No. 18) co-written and produced by Bryan Adams, "Afterglow" (U.S. Dance No. 2) featuring Steve Winwood on keyboards, "Break Every Rule" (Poland No. 15) co-written and produced by Rupert Hine and "Paradise Is Here" (Ireland No. 24).
Most of the 12-inch singles that were released from the album included extended or alternate mixes, live versions and/or non-album tracks, many of which would not see a release on compact disc until the Deluxe Edition box set of Break Every Rule in 2022. Turner also recorded other tracks during the sessions for the album with Steve Lillywhite and Bryan Adams; "Don't Turn Around", produced by Adams, was released as a B-side, but the others remain unreleased.
Following the release of the Break Every Rule album Turner recorded the duet "Tearing Us Apart" with Eric Clapton, included on his Phil Collins-produced 1986 album August and also issued as a single in early 1987.
Commercial performance
Break Every Rule was a commercial success worldwide. It reached No. 4 on the Billboard 200, No. 2 on the UK Albums Chart and No. 1 in Switzerland, and also Germany (for 12 weeks). The album sold over 5 million copies worldwide within its first year of release.[3] The RIAA certified Break Every Rule platinum,[4] denoting 1 million shipments in the United States. It was also certified 2× platinum in countries including Germany, Switzerland, Austria, and Canada.
