The song is taken from the group's latest release, Unleashed, and it reaches No. 1 in its 31st week on Hot Christian Songs, completing the second-longest journey to the top in the chart's 13-year history.
"Invincible," co-written by Skillet's lead vocalist/bassist John Cooper, is the group's first leader among 25 Hot Christian Songs appearances.

The video for "Feel Invincible" has been viewed over 21 million times on YouTube and streamed over 16 million times on Spotify (www.smarturl.it/StreamSkillet). "Feel Invincible" has also been a hit in the sports world, having been used by the NFL's Monday Night Football, Major League Baseball (MLB), National Hockey League (NHL), WWE during their Battleground Pay-Per-View, TBS' E-League and Nickelodeon's Kids' Choice Sports Awards. The No. 1 song was also chosen by the Atlantic Coast Conference (ACC) for use throughout the entire 2016 football season.
