Breaking the Rules (song)

Breaking the Rules is a 7" single by Manchester post-punk band Ludus, released in 1983. Both the A and B side ("Little Girls") are considerably more accessible and pop-oriented than most of their earlier material, and Linder Sterling's lyrics are this time a lot more straightforward than usual, but as uncompromising as ever in the expression of her views on gender roles and sexual politics.

Both these songs are included in the Ludus compilation The Damage, released on Les Temps Modernes in 2002.

"Breaking the Rules" would become their best-known song, especially after Morrissey included it on his compilation Under the Influence. It has also been included in another various artists' compilation, GRLZ - Women Ahead Of Their Time (2005).
