Break the Rules (Status Quo song)
Introduction "'''Break the Rules'''" is a song by British rock band Status Quo from their album ''Quo'' (1974). It was the only single released from the album, though it had not been the band's choice, as they wanted the track "Backwater" to be the single.The B-side of the single was "Lonely Night", which was not on an album until it became a bonus track on the 2005 reissue of ''Quo''. Some copies of the single were mis-pressed with the moulded label for "Lonely Night" on both sides. Two years after release, "Lonely Night" was plagiarised by Australian band the Angels in their song "Am I Ever Gonna See Your Face Again", for which Status Quo subsequently received royalties.
