    Lyrics:
    No one can blame you
    For walking away
    Too much rejection
    No love injection
    Life can't be easy
    It's not always swell
    Don't tell me truth hurts, little girl
    Cause it hurts like hell
    But down in the underground
    You'll find someone true
    Down in the underground;
    A land serene;
    A crystal moon
    Ah..
    It's only forever
    Not long at all
    Lost and lonely
    That's underground
    Underground
    Daddy, daddy, get me out of here
    Heard about a place today
    I, I'm underground
    Nothing ever hurts again
    Heard about a place today
    Daddy, get me out of here
    Where nothing ever hurts again
    Daddy, daddy, get me out of here
    I, I'm underground
    Sister, sister, please take me down
    I, I'm underground
    Daddy, daddy, get me out of here
    No one can blame you
    For walking away
    Too much rejection
    No love injection
    Down in the underground
    You'll find someone true
    Down in the underground;
    A land serene;
    A crystal moon
    Ah..
    It's only..
    It's only forever
    It's not long at all
    Lost and lonely
    That's underground
    Underground
    Daddy, daddy, get me out of here
    Heard about a place today
    Nothing never hurts again
    Daddy, daddy, get me out of here
    I'm, I'm underground
    Sister, sister, please take me down
    I'm, I'm underground
    Daddy, daddy, get me out
    Wanna live underground
    Wanna live underground
    Wanna live underground
    Wanna live underground
    Wanna live underground
    Wanna live underground
    Wanna live underground
    Wanna live underground
    Daddy, daddy, get me out of here
    I'm, I'm underground
    Sister, sister please take me down

    I, I'm underground

    About David Bowie:
    David Bowie redefined musical genres and the potential of live performance for generations of music lovers. Creating and discarding a variety of personae and restlessly challenging musical boundaries, Bowie released timeless albums including Space Oddity, Hunky Dory, The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust…, Aladdin Sane, Diamond Dogs, Young Americans, Station to Station, "Heroes,” Let's Dance, Heathen, The Next Day and many more. Blackstar, Bowie’s 28th and final studio album, was released on his 69th birthday, January 8, 2016. David Bowie died on January 10, 2016, two days after the release of Blackstar. His body of work, his influence on the worlds of music, art, fashion, film, theatre and beyond, and his legacy of innovation and reinvention will live forever. 2022 kicks off with Bowie at 75, a celebration of his 75th birthday with the Brilliant Adventure box set, the previously unreleased Toy, the 50th anniversary of Ziggy Stardust and a series of special events.

    Its so sad we live in a world without David Bowie and Jim Henson. I always loved Labyrinth but watching these videos now is so much more poignant. Bowie will live on through his music, his art and his legacy. And Jim Henson was a magical soul who made childhoods amazing. They were gifts to the world, both of them.

She was pretending to be a duchess but they couldn’t lie forever. They had a son, implied to be Jareth, and his father wished for the Owl King to take him away. Maria was devastated and went after her son, having the same 13 hour limit, but she defeated the old king just after her time ran out. When the owl king was defeated, the baby took his powers. Jareth and his mother went into the light and he came back a little while later, as an adult, and started ruling as the goblin king. Now his mother lives in her own ballroom fantasy, similar to Sarah’s, and Jareth still visits her

      There literally is no other movie like it out there. All the proof you need of that is to ask yourself how many times you've seen a small dog riding a bigger dog over farting rocks and across a fart lake? Or basically lego people that can sing songs while taking themselves apart and reassembling themselves in random ways. A very polite and adorable British worm that gives bad directions and you get the idea. I can safely say that I've never seen most of this stuff even attempted anywhere else. That is rare indeed!

    Bowie was and is my music hero, even after his passing. Ever since I saw the Labyrinth as a wee lad, I couldn't get enough of hearing this man's music. I still can't.
    He was an artist to his very core, never letting himself be held down by genre or medium. There was never a point in Bowie's career that he wasn't relevant. He was always trying something new, even in his final years.
    The news of his death hit me like a truck. It felt like a part of my artistic identity was gone forever. Looking back now, though, I know that he hasn't gone anywhere.
    Though he may have run out of time to give us anything new in these trying times, we still have what he has already given us, and that can't be taken away.
    See you around, Starman. You were an inspiration to all of us. I wish I could've seen you in person.

      He looks so serious in all his music videos and most of his movies and he's nothing but a goofball. I thought he was mean or an asshole or something when I was growing up, but I didn't know for sure. I didn't have the means to keep up with him or anything and my parents told me that celebrities dont care about you, which they're right for the most part, but they were wrong about him. I wanted to see if he was an asshole or not because he always looked like one with his rbf but he's not. I didn't try to keep up with him shortly after the movie was made, and I wish I had, but we didn't have the internet and stuff back then. And every now and then when I heard something about him, I shrugged it off because it really wasn't a big deal, then I learned that he died. I thought it wasn't a big deal, that's what I let myself believe. I was understandably shocked then but I started to look him up shortly after I heard he died, and I didn't realize how much it hurts. It hurts, but he wouldn't want you to hurt forever, he'd just say that dying is inevitable, and the sooner you accept it, the better. He left behind some great music and movies we can learn from though. And his behavior. He was such a gentleman and had manners.

Both his Father and I are life long Bowie Admirers so perhaps it's in the genes lol. Only Bowie could make singing with the Muppets classy.

      He cut ties with his old self to be reborn as the Goblin King.
      Sort of a weird thing, but yeah, seems that way to me. It's why he tears his old shell off at the end.
      He can still visit the human world, but he isn't David (or whatever his name would be), he's Jareth now.

    This song was an ingenious experiment for Bowie... combining gospel, blues, pop and rock at the same time, isn't easy without making a big mess! But our David Robert Jones was a genius not by chance, and like a wise chef who knows every single particularity of the ingredients, he was able to bring to the table a great dish worthy of the best starred restaurants. Helped by a superlative brigade.
