Elton John and Kiki Dee did not record Dont Go Breaking My Heart together. They werent even in the same cities. Elton recorded his part in Toronto, then the tape was sent to Kiki in London where she recorded hers. The song’s promotional film is said to be among the cheapest music videos ever produced. The videos director was found in the midst of filming a Rod Stewart television special. An unused soundstage was located and hastily dressed to give the appearance of a recording studio, and the two singers were told to pretend to record their vocals. Shot in a single take while being told to “improvise, Elton John and Kiki Dee often missed their cues. Eltons attempt to lead his companion in a very haphazard dance sequence caught Kiki off guard. https://youtube/watch?v=EQmRgFzg0jI
