"Don Quixote" is a song by the English singer Nik Kershaw from his second studio album The Riddle (1984). Released in July 1985 by MCA Records as the final single from that album, it reached No. 10 on the UK singles chart in September 1985. It also became Kershaw's seventh (and last) consecutive UK top 20 hit single.

Nine days before "Don Quixote" was released as a single, it was the second of four songs played by Kershaw at Live Aid. The others were previous singles "The Riddle", "Wouldn't It Be Good" and "Wide Boy".
