It is their last studio album recorded with drummer and singer [[Phil Collins]] before his departure in 1996 to pursue solo projects full time. The album marked the return of band activity following an almost four-year hiatus after touring their previous album, ''[[Invisible Touch]]'' (1986). ''We Can't Dance'' was a worldwide commercial success for the band. It became the band's fifth consecutive No. 1 album in the UK and reached No. 4 in the US, where it sold over 4 million copies. Between 1991 and 1993, six tracks from the album were released as singles, including "[[No Son of Mine]]" and "[[I Can't Dance]]". The latter received a [[Grammy Award]] nomination for [[Grammy Award for Best Pop Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocals#Recipients|Best Pop Performance by a Duo or Group With Vocals]] in [[35th Annual Grammy Awards#Award winners|1993]]. Genesis [[We Can't Dance Tour|toured in support]] of ''We Can't Dance'' from May to November 1992, playing large stadiums and arenas across North America and Europe.
