You Broke My Heart in 17 Places is the debut studio album by singer-actress-comedian Tracey Ullman released in 1983. It peaked at number 14 on the UK album chart and number 34 on the Billboard 200 in the U.S. in the spring of 1984.[3]

The album consists of covers, such as "Move Over Darling" (Doris Day) and Blondie's "(I'm Always Touched By Your) Presence Dear". "They Don't Know"—originally written, recorded and released by singer Kirsty MacColl—became Ullman's biggest hit. It reached #8 on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100, and #2 in the UK. The song's music video included a cameo appearance by Paul McCartney. (Ullman had appeared with McCartney in the film Give My Regards to Broad Street.)
