#Personally I think it’s a crime we didn’t get a Bowie ep of the muppet show but I survive

“As the World Falls Down” was written by David Bowie for the 1986 film, Labyrinth. The song is sung by Jareth, the Goblin king (David Bowie) to Sarah (Jennifer Connolly) after she bites into a peach and is transported to a masquerade ball held in a dream world. The costumes from the scene are a part of the Jim Henson exhibition and they are STUNNING.

There was a music video created for the song, although it was never released with any Labyrinth material and was only released in 1993 as part of the video Bowie – The Video Collection. This music video features Hoggle (Shari Weiser), as well as scenes from the movie.
