- "Ship of Fools" – A haunting ballad that demonstrated the duo's emotional range beyond dance-pop.
- "Chains of Love" – A massive Billboard Hot 100 hit that solidified their US success.
- "Heart of Stone" and "Phantom Bride" – Fan favorites that Remain essential highlights of their discography.
With over five million copies sold worldwide, The Innocents remains Erasure's best-selling album and a timeless masterclass in melodic electronic music. A must-have for collectors of Mute Records history and classic pop enthusiasts alike.
