History
"Invisible Touch" came about during a jam for the second part of "Domino," Rutherford playing a riff while Collins improvised the line "She seems to have an invisible touch". It was recorded at The Farm in Surrey during 1984, 1985 and 1986.
In the summer of 1986, "Invisible Touch" was succeeded in the number one position on the Billboard Hot 100 by the Multi-Grammy nominated "Sledgehammer", performed by Genesis' former lead singer, Peter Gabriel.
The single also reached number one on the U.S. Mainstream rock tracks chart.
