"Invisible Light" is a song by American band Scissor Sisters, serving as the third and final single from their third studio album Night Work. The track, which features guest spoken-word vocals by actor Sir Ian McKellen,[1] is what lead singer Jake Shears felt should have been the first single released for Night Work, even after his going with "Fire with Fire".[2]
Music video
[edit | edit source]The video for "Invisible Light" features a woman having a series of nightmares. She sees herself being dragged into the woods by a group of men, sleeping in a boat on a river, and attending her own funeral. The song itself was cut down from its six-minute album length into a radio edit of four minutes in length, and features the vocals of Sir McKellen spoken through an actor portraying a hypnotist.[3] The bands' members describe the video as "a magical trip down the rabbit hole".[4] The video is inspired by the nightmares of Mia Farrow in Rosemary's Baby and Catherine Deneuve in Belle de jour. Liz Taylor's version of Cleopatra also appears as a character in the video.
