This tune is the perfect showcase for The Gentleman's lovely voice and it's a crying sin it wasn't used in the movie. What a way to introduce little ones to the enchantment of Bowie's musical stylings
Here are the lyrics to to song if anyone needs it. Your welcome. :) Frozen to the glass again Out of our skins again Cold I am, tonight I am Tomorrow's really on my mind Sure to think of, from now on The things will move more slowly But thin is thin and chances slim And sometimes we all have those dreams Safe in this skyline Safe, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa Safe in this skyline Safe, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa In this skyline The past it almost shimmers now All we needed, all we wished for But here I am and safe am I Trusting in the lament sky Safe in this skyline Safe, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa Safe in this skyline Safe, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa In this skyline Skyline Skyline Skyline Are things getting better now? Are things getting worse? But I'm standing in the sunshine And it lifts my heart and feeds my mind Safe in this skyline Safe, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa Safe in this skyline Safe, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa In this skyline Skyline Skyline Skyline Skyline Skyline Skyline Also, this song is pretty cool, btw. Crazy that it was supposed to be for The Rugrats Movie, (which I also love along with the show).
Feels weird knowing that Bowie wrote a song for Rugrats of all things, but given that I did catch an airing of the film on TV back in the early 2000's (I was born the year the film first came out), I'm sure this song would've blown my child self's mind away if it _was_ included in the movie as intended. I'm curious to know if the original 1998 recording of the song is out there somewhere; maybe Parlophone will include it in a later box set.

@zoomgas Thomas Dolby did the FernGully soundtrack and used a line about "jock itch" (sung by Robin Williams), and Motorhead popped up on the Spongebob Squarepants Movie soundtrack with an original song for the film, so, stranger things have happened.
@zoomgas There's a reason why it wasn't used I dare say. This is an amazing song, a huge theme, but really: Visconti and Bowie overshot their target when they put this together for a children's movie!!
Okay, is that a Stylophone in the intro (and throughout)? Great song. Not necessarily appropriate for "Rugrats," but then again, why not? Gotta give the nippers the benefit of the doubt. Thanks for sharing!
Je roule et m'enroule avec délice , tant de délice dans le velours de sa voix, elle est pour moi comme une caresse délicate, sensuelle. Bowie, je Vous aime, je vous aime...
This was made for rugrats movie...hmm. Can’t really imagine it with the babies. It makes you think the babies actually died and the “safe in the sky life” line is the babies and angelica in heaven. I can see why it was cut.
Friendly reminder that this was written for The Rugrats Movie.
Damn, this sounds good! Rugrats Movie brought me here after I randomly saw a blurb about this on Wikipedia of all places.

I agree, it would have been perfect for a Rugrats movie, just the right amount of peril.
You are now safe bowie, RIP.
Been a Bowie fan since the late 70s. Only just discovered this . It’s brilliant
this should have made it to the album, too good for a B-Side/Bonus track
Agreed. This should’ve been on the Rugrats Movie soundtrack.
Bizarre yet typically epic Bowie chord progression... not heard it til now!?! Visconti's string arrangement is so perfectly subtle... Thank you!
This song isn’t available on my Spotify. Its kinda Amazing how many hidden songs he has
Esp when you factor in how many tons of songs and versions of songs ARE on spotify! Haha

Here are the lyrics to to song if anyone needs it. Your welcome. :)
Frozen to the glass again
Out of our skins again
Cold I am, tonight I am
Tomorrow's really on my mind
Sure to think of, from now on
The things will move more slowly
But thin is thin and chances slim
And sometimes we all have those dreams
Safe in this skyline
Safe, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa
Safe in this skyline
Safe, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa
In this skyline
The past it almost shimmers now
All we needed, all we wished for
But here I am and safe am I
Trusting in the lament sky
Safe in this skyline
Safe, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa
Safe in this skyline
Safe, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa
In this skyline
Skyline
Skyline
Skyline
Are things getting better now?
Are things getting worse?
But I'm standing in the sunshine
And it lifts my heart and feeds my mind
Safe in this skyline
Safe, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa
Safe in this skyline
Safe, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa
In this skyline
Skyline
Skyline
Skyline
Skyline
Skyline
Skyline
Also, this song is pretty cool, btw. Crazy that it was supposed to be for The Rugrats Movie, (which I also love along with the show).
Such a unique and original voice! Also love Visconti's string arrangement !
one of my best faves forever
me too
Woah ! We can feel Reeves Gabrels in this one magical song !
SHOULDA BEEN ON HEATHENNNnnnnn
I am trying really, really hard to picture this song in the Rugrats movie.
Really hard.
Yeah me too. Sounds more like a Bond theme song than anything… (Fuck, what wouldn’t I have given to see David Bowie do a fucking Bond theme song).
I just love this man's voice!!
Great song!
Never heard this...thank you for posting!
Ive always loved this song. Mesmerizing.
One of my faves if not my #1 fave from Bowie 🖤 Ily rip David Bowie miss you 🖤
this is one of my most favourite songs ever
..Thank u ,Thank u!!!! Omg a new cut!!! Its been so long,so long so long.......cant put out the fire without him....miss him so!!

the melody of a part of it reminds me of the beginning of "The Supermen". Interesting piece.
Mica Hale I agree with the Superman link
wow. forgot about this one.....! wow.
This is awesome.
Thanks so much for sharing this. I'd always known of this and should have made the effort to track it down years ago.
Love, love, love it!
Great Song. Love it 😍😍😍😍
I have this track in a capella version. I will upload it soon in order to honor the memory of him
Pardísimo please do the a capella version, would be very interesting
Pardísimo and we're still waiting after 1 year
so upload it then, please
Pardísimo hello friends.
He's uploaded it guys
oh I'm loving it... seriously need to find me a copy of this song
With less vocal effects, this could pretty much be a Bond theme.
Wow... what a mix...... everything jumps out of the speakers....
Like his high vibrato here. Seems impossible he could croon really deeply too.

a question only Bowie himself can answer
anyway I really would like to see him perform again
Thank you!!
Fabuleschen darling. Like a quality shirt. Never gets old.
Lovely.
Not in Spotify and not on any album, such a great song…. Anybody knows where to find this..??
It was only released in the UK to my knowledge. May need to buy an imported CD of Heathen

love it
With the knowledge that this was going to be used for the rugrats movie, kind of makes me wonder what kind of scene this song would be set to.
I imagine it as being a dream/ nightmare scene, maybe flying in an open topped aeroplane at night would fit well with the lyrics.
@@andalltheangelssay212 It was the scene where Tommy basically tried to kill Dill
@@liamhiggins7955where did you hear this?
Has anybody news on if David is working on a new studio album?
@zoomgas There's a reason why it wasn't used I dare say. This is an amazing song, a huge theme, but really: Visconti and Bowie overshot their target when they put this together for a children's movie!!
It's got a touch of 'The Running Gun Blues' about it.
You know, IIRC, there was a Japanese release of the album that included this song as a bonus track.
and on a CD with several extra tracks like wood jackson
Muito bom gosto
NICE SONG. I WILL UPLOAD IT IN A CAPELLA VERSION THAT I HAVE
Okay, is that a Stylophone in the intro (and throughout)?
Great song. Not necessarily appropriate for "Rugrats," but then again, why not? Gotta give the nippers the benefit of the doubt. Thanks for sharing!
Can anybody give me the lyrics of this
extraordinary song?
Okay, seriously, Nickelodeon, fuck you for turning this down for The Rugrats Movie!
❣️⚡
@MistakenMantis i downloaded the song from amazon
OH come one, this would of worked great with The Rugrats Movie
bknnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡
Je roule et m'enroule avec délice , tant de délice dans le velours de sa voix, elle est pour moi comme une caresse délicate, sensuelle.
Bowie, je Vous aime, je vous aime...
I'd rather have this on Heathen than A Better Future any day of the week.
razarsenal180 ah come better future is a great song!
I want this and Wood Jackson instead of Cactus lol
has a megadeth risk album quality to it.
Bowie sounds like Ozzy sometimes. Not just this song.
Good God no!
I never saw it that way.... But yes, you're right! In the refrain indeed.....
He looks like Gman in that pic
why did the take it out? was it because it is really creepy
This was made for rugrats movie...hmm. Can’t really imagine it with the babies. It makes you think the babies actually died and the “safe in the sky life” line is the babies and angelica in heaven. I can see why it was cut.
I thought it was called Skylife?
I dream of pea-pod-green seas into which I sink into dreamy misery
as the praxeologically-gaunt son of your wacky-quack hysterectomy
His voice is too creepyfor a children's movie, but they shoul''ve added it anyways.
