This is the video for Elton John and Kiki Dee's 1976 duet "Don't Go Breaking My Heart". The video was shot all in one take. At one point, Elton even tries to teach Kiki Dee the "hand jive", a dance that was popular in the 1950s. Elton and songwriting partner Bernie Taupin originally wanted to record "Don't Go Breaking My Heart" with Dusty Springfield but decided against doing so, possibly because Springfield was too sick at the time.
