"You're Breakin' My Heart" is a song by American singer-songwriter Harry Nilsson, appearing on his 1972 album '' Son of Schmilsson''. It is notorious for the opening line, "You're breakin' my heart / You're tearin' it apart / So fuck you". Recording The song was written by Nilsson about the then-recent separation from his wife Diane; the lyrics contain self-blame for the break-up, as well as several unpleasant diatribes towards his former partner. Biographer Alyn Shipton speculated that at least one line was a coded reference to Nilsson's relationship with his close friend Ringo Starr. During recording, Nilsson had begun to drink heavily and started to record more experimental and controversial material; producer Richard Perry urged him to reconsider and try to record something more in the vein of the earlier hit album ''Nilsson Schmilsson'', but was overruled. Nilsson wanted to release the track as a single, but this was clearly impractical, for the profanity in the lyrics would ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
