by Elton John
Sacrifice was written by Elton John and Bernie Taupin, released in 1989 on Elton John’s album Sleeping with the Past. Sacrifice is a pop ballad about the breakdown of a marriage, with music by Elton John and lyrics by his longtime collaborator Bernie Taupin. Initially a modest hit, it became John’s first solo UK number-one single when reissued in 1990 and has since remained one of his signature songs.
