"Invisible" is a song recorded by Alison Moyet in 1984, written by Lamont Dozier (of the songwriting team Holland–Dozier–Holland), from her debut album Alf.
After two UK top ten hits with her previous singles, "Invisible" barely missed the top 20, reaching #21 on the UK Singles Chart. In Ireland, the single reached #6, becoming Moyet's third top 10 hit in that country. The single went even higher in New Zealand, peaking at #4, her second consecutive top ten hit after "All Cried Out" reached #6. The song is also the first American release from the album and is Moyet's most successful single in that country, reaching #31 on the Billboard Hot 100 in the spring of 1985 and becoming her only US Top 40 hit, either solo or with Yazoo, thus far. In Canada, it peaked at #20 on the nationwide RPM chart in April of that year.
The lyrics depict a woman who's in love with a man who treats her like she barely exist and it also voices her apprehension to leave.
The b-side was the Marvin Gaye song "Hitch Hike" on which she receives backing from Darts.
In interviews for her 2017 tour, Moyet said she would not be performing the song again. She explained that it was not a slam against the song itself, but that the lyrics and message of the song, written more than 30 years earlier, did not resonate with her any more.
There are two versions of the music video for the song. In the first version, Moyet is seen at a party surrounded by friends, all of whom appear to have partners of various forms. She walks into another room to perform the song. Moyet is often seen singing alone outside, or in what appears to be a cupboard. There are also many cutaways to where Moyet walks through the party unnoticed (hence, she is invisible). The video ends with her drinking a glass of wine and lost in thought. The second version of the video mostly features Moyet performing the song and omits many of the party scenes. It concludes with Moyet walking out of the room and into a white light. In both videos, there are moments when the camera pans on what seems to be a silver rhombus with the letter 'i' in the middle.
