It was also heard over clips of classic Disney cartoons in the 1986 DTV special Disney's DTV Valentine (later renamed Disney's DTV Romancin').
- Don't Go Breaking My Heart was the first No. 1 single in the UK for both Elton John and Kiki Dee, topping the chart for six weeks in mid 1976. John would not enjoy a solo British chart-topper until "Sacrifice" in 1990. It also became his sixth No. 1 single in the US, topping the Billboard Hot 100 for four weeks. In the U.S. it was certified Gold by the Recording Industry Association of America.
- Elton John and Miss Piggy, backed by the Electric Mayhem, sang the duet "Don't Go Breaking My Heart" as the closing number on episode 214 of The Muppet Show.

Kermit and Piggy again sang the song on America's Got Talent.
