SERIOUSLY, I DONT THINK THERE IS MUCH BOWIE COULDNT DO. HE WAS SO TALENTED AND FEARLESS. HE WASNT HESITANT TO PUSH BOUNDARIES. HIS MUSIC IS BEAUTIFUL.!
I think it's interesting that he thinks the goblins are taking babies without his command. You think he would control the comings and goings from the Aboveground. But I can definitely agree that he's like a big kid.
@@DjDeadHomie I'm glad he nixed the idea of on-screen kiss that was in the script. We did not need that awkwardness and I think it made the film a little better
David Bowie's voice is just soo soothing. A voice you could easily fall asleep to, you could never tire or get bored of. The softness yet the subtle tenor sends warmth and shivers along your spine (in very good ways). His personality is just so contagious! No wonder Iman fell in love with him. *sigh* Gone too soon. You will forever be our Goblin King!
This attic’s full of memories for me. We spent all our summers by the seaside and in winter at home, by the fire. Frost on the window and snow. Snowballs and making snowmen. One winter I made a really big snowman and he got this scarf for me. You see, he was a real snowman. That winter brought the heaviest snow I’d ever seen. The snow fell steadily all through the night. And when I woke up, the room was filled with light and silence, and I knew then it was to be a magical day.
@@pattieboy5861there’s a lot of math and religion in this film. It’s Escher, the symbolism of an owl, sure. But it was an ode to Escher. Stair scene might help you with that.
The songs in Labyrinth are so mesmerizing. There was a period of time when I was about 4-5 yrs old when I would watch Labyrinth every single day, and I still remember looking forward to it and being excited to see it again every time, and being absolutely bewitched by Bowie's Goblin King. And I still am, more than 30 years later. David Bowie and Labyrinth taught me to seek out what is whimsical, fantastical, or magical in life, and to delight in it.
Gosh I remember watching this movie over and over again bc the goblin king just seemed SO COOL but not only him every character was so just wow 6 year old me just couldn't handle herself But me 10 years later isn't better I'm still addicted to this masterpiece!
So true, I was also around that age and he was so confusing to me at the time. He was the bad guy I thought but why was he so fascinating anyway? It took a while before puberty kicked in and I understood, haha. It was also a pretty scary movie , we watched parts from between our fingers round the corner of the kitchen.
@@_RobBanks in germany we say Meinungsfreiheit ist nice Aber fresse halten kostet nichts I love this movie the most because everything in it is hand made The puppets, places and props It's just breath taking and important to acknowledge the creative tream behind it I dunno what kind of paranoid trip ur on but Bestie U won't change anything by annoying strangers online
@@WafflezDay Not defending the guy entirely here, he's done his fair share of messed up stuff but he did refuse to kiss her even though it was in the script for that reason. I do think though if he really wanted to compliment her a simple "she's pretty" would have been enough.
Always was my favorite childhood film Bowie was a musical genius and a fantastic actor too gone too soon but never once forgotten his music will live on may he R.i.p
I just watched this movie for the gazillionth time and never will I ever find it boring! I can't believe all the great singers he had behind him. I wish this video was longer...because I never, ever am bored listening or watching him....
I saw this for the first time about a year after he passed away and I’m sorry I missed out on this film so long. Bowie was fantastic and the movie would not have been nearly as enjoyable without him. Rip David Bowie the one and only goblin king.
My favorite song from the film is “Within You.” This is the song Jareth sings during the final showdown with Sarah. (It’s the staircase scene.) There’s something sweet about how Jareth sounds heartbroken.
Deep cut to Laughing Gnome... What a wonderful interview(s). I can't believe this is the first time I've seen it - around 40 years after the fact. David, you're missed. You made the world a more interesting and bright place. Thank you.
@@feywynnightrunner9380 One interesting piece of information I slightly regret to know now, and I am also glad that the creepiness was fenced in by casting DB🙄😬😐
@@dayoffinkyoto Well...... you better tell Scott Derrickson that: www.digitalspy.com/movies/a32741991/labyrinth-2-release-date/ It looks like there is a chance we're going to be getting a _Labyrinth_ sequel.
@@hdjksa52 we will see. Maybe Jareth was taken away at the same age Toby was. Maybe that's how he ended up being goblin king since he's not a goblin at all and is more of a human with some shapeshifting abilities. And btw fans want Tilda Swinton to be in the lead role of goblin king? Are they on crack? You can't have a woman play a king! And even if you could have a woman play a king then the whole script would have to be changed or the movie would never work it would have major lesbian vibes to it. The movie would just really be more ugly and awkward.
Horror is my favorite genre hands down and I always have a tough time picking a favorite in that category but time and time again, I will say that Labyrinth is my favorite movie. I always enjoy it, every time I have watched it and I’ve sincerely picked up new things in subsequent viewings 20 years later(not going to claim to be the most observant though).
This was the first time I've fell in love with David Bowie... Watching this then the release of Black Tie, White Noise album documentary on Disney late night.
Is that a British accent god he's hot as hell I thought those eyebrows were part of the costume and makeup but nope those were his real eyebrows. Rip here's to a Superb singer and Actor we miss you David Bowie 🌹🕊️🕊️

@@aishahkx123 i am not talking about the movie!!!! I am talking about the original Cast of 1983 in Vienna!!!!!!! And yes, i agree, the movie is a horror. Never saw so ugly cats.
I heard the original goblin cast was rather disruptive and caused many electrical failures. They also tried to make their own movie franchise. Didn't make nearly as much as Gremlins did.
In a early draft they did after to many onset shenanigans and random problems with props and what not, they decided to hire goblin stunt doubles instead. Worked out in the end. they could dance, magic, dance
I picture Bowie, Henson and Lucas sitting around a table covered in liquor bottles and drugs like that scene in Wolf of Wall street. With Henson slamming his shoe on the table screaming "You're the Goblin King, David! The Goblin King!"
David's voice is incredible both singing and talking
I could absolutely listen to him all day ❤ rip space cowboy
@@cchastee0614 I agree. He's incredible
literally, he has a lovely soothing voice
Yes! 😍😍😍
SERIOUSLY, I DONT THINK THERE IS MUCH BOWIE COULDNT DO. HE WAS SO TALENTED AND FEARLESS. HE WASNT HESITANT TO PUSH BOUNDARIES. HIS MUSIC IS BEAUTIFUL.!
I crushed so hard on Jareth when I saw that movie as a young teen. It will always have a special place in my heart.
same i was obsessed with david bowie after that
I love that he has his own thoughts on Jareth’s personality and situation as the Goblin King.
I think it's interesting that he thinks the goblins are taking babies without his command. You think he would control the comings and goings from the Aboveground. But I can definitely agree that he's like a big kid.
thats how a true artist operates. he can just imagine this, and delve in to that character.
I think he interprets it better, too
No one could ever replace him as the Goblin King
Your right! Bring him back as a cgi deepfaked ghost with ai voiceover in an over produced blockbuster sequel now
It was so sweet him complimenting Jennifer like that 🥰
I’m glad he acknowledged that she was only 14 and how strange it was .
@@DjDeadHomie I'm glad he nixed the idea of on-screen kiss that was in the script. We did not need that awkwardness and I think it made the film a little better

His Escher eyebrows - chefs kiss
His eye makeup was based upon the owl….
@@pattieboy5861there’s a lot of math and religion in this film. It’s Escher, the symbolism of an owl, sure. But it was an ode to Escher. Stair scene might help you with that.
Bowie: "I kicked the baby"
Everyone: "okay, but a sequel"
🤣 I assume he's joking but damn xD
Hahhahhahahah
Yea he was into witchcraft. A cult called golden dawn so I doubt it. Glad I wasn’t the only who caught that.
I guess kicking babies was ok at the time 🤣🤣😂
Well of course he was joking. He said he kicked the damn baby.... and it didn't cry. Yeah.... Joking.... definitely. No way in hell it didn't.
“Slap that baby, make him freeee!”

I showed it to my daughter.
I know the whole movie word by word
Same
and the soundtrack! 💪😍🔥💙🥰😂
Reminds me of my childhood still when i see it...magic
How can you not like David?! He was amazing. I just recently became of his. May he R.I.P.
Became what? A fan?
@ A disciple
Lol typos!
Rest in peace, Jareth the Goblin King!
Bowie didn't die. He just went back to the Goblin City.
Bowie will always be the Goblin King to me.. rock genius or not he is Jareth to me!
Same here when I picture David Bowie I see jareth
Every year my children and I made a special night of watching this movie. Wonderful memories!
I'm 33 love this still my fav film ever
“One forgets she’s just 14 years old” knowing the 80’s, please don’t forget that.
Yeah him describing her as quite beautiful was a bit creepy.

@@WafflezDay I don’t think so at all. There’s nothing about his comments about her that are creepy whatsoever,
I loved David Bowies voice.
I could fall asleep listening to him talk
He was amazing I loved this movie and his music. He is definitely missed, and so freaking handsome
Always was my favorite childhood film Bowie was a musical genius and a fantastic actor too gone too soon but never once forgotten his music will live on may he R.i.p
Also rest in peace Jim Henson.
RIP what a legend
Today is his Bday. Unfortunately, the anniversary of his passing is only 2 days from now.
This will always be my favorite movie ❤️
Ever wept over the death of someone you never met except through their art?
Yah. That crap is powerful.
Both David and Jim, both two extremely extremely talented people, absolutely tragic that they’re both gone.. 😢
I just watched this movie for the gazillionth time and never will I ever find it boring! I can't believe all the great singers he had behind him. I wish this video was longer...because I never, ever am bored listening or watching him....
This will always be one of my favourite movies✨🧡 who else had or still has a crush on the goblin king cause that would be me
First crush ever. 5-year old me in 1986👵
Yep. From the time I was 5 till now at 36 years old.
He is the reason why I started liking boys in the first place because before then I thought they were icky.
Miss Bowie so much
Me too
I miss him every day
Still whach this classic..love seeing my kids enjoy it...wow so happy i saw this lol 😆
What a great Movie, David you are deeply missed ! Thanks for the upload !
I saw this for the first time about a year after he passed away and I’m sorry I missed out on this film so long.
Bowie was fantastic and the movie would not have been nearly as enjoyable without him. Rip David Bowie the one and only goblin king.
I had no idea Whitney’s mum Cissy Houston did backing vocals for this film!
What about Luther Vandross & Chaka Khan 🤯🤯🤯
My favorite song from the film is “Within You.” This is the song Jareth sings during the final showdown with Sarah. (It’s the staircase scene.) There’s something sweet about how Jareth sounds heartbroken.
Lui ha detto che era la sua preferita perché spiegava chiaramente cosa provasse Jareth in quel momento.
Forever gonna love David Bowie 🫶🏼🙌🏼
David was unique. He would have also been a great part for the Joker
Omggggg 100%%%%
Huh, now there's an idea i never considered.... good idea
Yes! Brilliant.
Better than Leto, that's for sure
@@luiginastro8831 totally!!

My all time favorite! Such an incredible masterpiece! ❤
Being older not into the movie but hey he smashed that genre too!
it’s hard to realize that he is no longer with us… he was brilliant in life ❤
Yeah he played that part perfectly loved him as Tesla in The Prestige too though that movie is underrated and has quite the cast imo.
I love Labrynth...he was great in it!
never knew chaka khan cissy houston and luther were in this underground video...and David bowie insane
Yes! I thought the same thing.
@@mrsv1823 Quite insane indeed! And Arif Mardin, the producer, is quite simply a genius.
Saw it at the cinema when it came out in 1986 as a 9 year old. David Bowie did indeed steal the show.
Saw it too in the theatre when I was 9 along with the movie Aliens playing next door. Great memories
Love every thing about David Bowie
Im so glad they decided on Bowie. I really think this would have been a very different film if it had been Micheal Jackson.
Rest in peace, rockstar~
Originally, Mr. Henson wanted Mick Jagger to star in Labyrinth as Jareth. I'm glad that didn't happen, the movie would have been way to creepy.
@@feywynnightrunner9380 One interesting piece of information I slightly regret to know now, and I am also glad that the creepiness was fenced in by casting DB🙄😬😐
Incredible document! What an incredible character he did. Thanks for sharing!!
I honestly had the biggest crush on Jareth! I think David Bowie is still a brilliant & gorgeous fella even though he's passed!
Watched this movie all the time as a kid, completely attached to this movie.
What a genius we were lucky to have for a moment in our life. We truly were lucky to have him.
Why don't they go for a prequel for this movie? Something explaining Jared's Origin. They already did a prequel for Dark Crystal

A young Dane Dehaan would have looked perfect for that part
Because he’s just a dream obsession of Sarah’s. She created him in her mind. He doesn’t have a backstory.
Oh! How I wish he had been in the Lord of the rings or even the hobbit. He should have made more movies.
He had a knack for comedy roles. The Linguini Incident is a good example.
Apparently he auditioned or was asked to play elrond, don't know how true that is though.

he really was
without bowie, Labyrinth would not be as iconic as it is!
Without Bouuwie there is no labyrynth you twat
He was and will be a legend forever!
I LOVE that Bowie was sold by seeing Dark Crystal for the first time and seeing the potential for working on a similar project.
I know it's David Bowie, but the scene of the actors below the goblins killed me.
This was the first time I've fell in love with David Bowie... Watching this then the release of Black Tie, White Noise album documentary on Disney late night.
😊Bowie was a mystical mesmerizing character in his time he had a little bit of magic in everything he was a part of!🎉🎉🎉🎉

This was and still is my favorite movie I love it
When I was in 8th grade I would walk home from my bus stop and watch this everyday

One of the greatest characters ever put to film
I miss him T.T
"I kicked the baby." That was hysterical, lol. Anyone who took that literally is an idiot. Just sayin.
A whole bunch of people did 😂😂
