"Invisible" (stylized in all caps) is a song by the English pop rock band Duran Duran. It was released on 19 May 2021 as the lead single [1] from their fifteenth studio album, Future Past (2021), [2] and their 39th single overall.

The song debuted and peaked at number 45 on the UK Singles Chart and number 44 on the UK Singles Downloads Chart. [3] In 2023, the song started being used by fans of the Metal Gear video game series in fan edits of the Metal Gear video games in an attempt to gaslight other people into believing that the song was included in the soundtrack for Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain due to the similarities in the themes of the song and the video game.

Music video

The music video for Invisible was made with Huxley, an artificial intelligence, described as a "unique dreamer whose 'mind' has been modelled after the cognitive and emotional processes of humans" with it being the first music video of the Future Past album to feature Huxley. [5]
