"Chorus" is a song by Erasure which is the first single and title track to the duo's fifth studio album Chorus. It was released in 1991 by Mute Records in the UK and Sire Records in the U.S. Produced by Martyn Phillips (of The Chills) and written by Erasure members Vince Clarke and Andy Bell, "Chorus" is an uptempo synth pop song featuring Clarke's signature electronic soundscapes and Phillips' pristine, computerized production.

Issued prior to the release of the Chorus album, the single returned Erasure to the upper-reaches of the UK singles chart, reaching number three. "Chorus" was also a success in Germany, where it peaked at number seventeen. The single became Erasure's first Billboard Hot 100 entry since "Stop!" in 1989, climbing to number eighty-three. It was more successful on the U.S. Hot Dance Music/Club Play chart, where it peaked at number fourteen.
