Innocent Eyes is the debut studio album by Australian singer Delta Goodrem, released in Australia on 24 March 2003.

Goodrem worked with writers and producers such as: Audius Mtawarira, Bridget Benenate, Cathy Dennis, Eliot Kennedy, Gary Barlow, Jarrad Rogers, Kara DioGuardi, Vince Pizzinga and others to create the album with a collection of piano-based pop and ballad tracks.

[10] In September 2000, Goodrem signed to Sony Music and an album which she planned to release with independent label Empire Records was shelved.

She worked with a range of producers and songwriters, including the True North production and songwriting team: Gary Barlow, Eliot Kennedy (Spice Girls), Ric Wake (Celine Dion, Taylor Dayne, Jennifer Lopez, Mariah Carey), Kara DioGuardi (Kelly Clarkson, Christina Aguilera, Avril Lavigne, Hilary Duff), Matthew Gerrard (Mandy Moore, BBMak), Vince Pizzinga (Midnight Oil, Danielle Spencer), David Nicholas (INXS, Elton John, George) and Mark Holden.

Holden wanted to clear up the terms of his contract with Goodrem and her record label Sony and requested all consultancy fees owed to him under the agreement.

Caroline Sullivan a writer for The Guardian said that "Goodrem sings her aspirational ballads with heartfelt candour, while her co-writer's credit on nearly every song seems to be more than affectation.

[13] "Born to Try" was the first song from the album released in Australia on 11 November 2002, just a few days after Goodrem's eighteenth birthday.

At the time of its release, Goodrem was performing the song on the Australian soap opera Neighbours, as singer Nina Tucker.

Goodrem was determined to film the music video and to have it completed before she started her second round of chemotherapy for Hodgkin's lymphoma[26] because she said the song is her favourite from the album.

During the initial release and promotion of Innocent Eyes, Goodrem was unable to tour due to her cancer diagnosis in July 2003.

[31] During July 2005, Goodrem embarked on The Visualise Tour, performing a total of ten shows to an audience of 80,000 people.

In September 2023, to celebrate the 20 year anniversary of Innocent Eyes, Goodrem embarked on a retrospective tour in theatres across Australia.

She performed the album in its entirety and original sequence, in addition to a medley of songs which followed Innocent Eyes, and her 2023 single "Back to Your Heart".

[36] Innocent Eyes was then tied with Neil Diamond's album Hot August Night (1972) for spending the most weeks at number one in Australian history.

On 23 December 2003 it was announced that the one millionth copy of the album had been released to retail, the disc was specially marked by Sony and the buyer would receive a plaque commemorating the milestone.

On 7 January 2010, Innocent Eyes was announced as Australia's top-selling album for the 2000s,[42] for which Goodrem received a special award at the 2010 ARIA No.
