Actually he didn’t turn down the role, they didn’t even ask him the crew named popular artist at the time and as soon as they said David Bowie’s name the director said he would be a perfect candidate for the role.
The Ballroom is my favorite part of the movie. It's dark, decadent, and yet so magical. Jareth is trying to seduce Sarah but it's Sarah that has him enchanted. It's beautiful.
Yup they were showing the Occult also she was under 18 in this so it's borderline Pedophilia. But back then things were seen from a much more innocent perspective and yes it was my favorite part.
I agree! I remember thinking that, when this film first debuted in 1986. That it seemed like, against his own dark nature, Jareth was being charmed by Sarah. Its a shame his evil side won out.
There is actually a labyrinth comic i have been wanting yo read (i only have the second half) and one pf the covers has this scene i fell in love all over again

No one has commented on how beautiful Jennifer's hair looks with the silver lace and jewelry woven through it? The costumes in this scene absolutely blow me away every time I see it.
Oh definitely! Did you notice how Jareth is the only one wearing blue, and a brilliant sequins-y blue at that? Makes him stand out from the crowd immediately. Meanwhile Sarah is in white and silver, which (while beautiful) makes her sort of blend into the crowd. Like Jareth is using color to try to make her think she belongs there.
This scene is so incredibly crafted. It has a tone of beauty, love, darkness, manipulation, purity, connection,and danger all in one. Not a word spoken, just eye contact of the actors and how they are blocked, and the beautiful choreography and music. Bravo Jim Henson!
I just really love how, considering many of the goblins were originally people, Henson kind of hints at the real appearances these people WOULD have had as humans. Plus, I'm curious if this is how many of the goblins perceive the world all the time. It might explain their almost stoner-like behavior at times if they pretty much were as intoxicated as she in this moment...
NOW THAT I'M REWATCHING THIS MOVIE, I can only picture how respectful David was towards women. Jennifer was only 14 or 15 while filming this and during the dance scene, you can see that Bowie is keeping his distance from his chest and watching where he touches to make sure that Jennifer was comfortable! What a gentleman! May he rest in peace!
"Anemoia- a nostaglia for a time you've never known" This gives me such strong feelings of anemoia. Deep deep sorrow, desire, love, longing and sadness I cant possibly comprehend.
Me too. I just discovered this movie last week and I just keep rewatching some scenes over and over to feel anemoia I guess. Glad there's a word for it
Jennifer Connelly is so stunning in this movie. This movie was an instant classic. I hope they NEVER remake the movie, they just going to ruin a master piece.
I've never heard her say anything about that, but I hope she did, regardless. Edit: I've heard her say in interviews that she knew about him and was familiar with some of his songs prior to filming, but didn't really know much about him. She says she ended up liking him and that he was really nice to her, but I don't think she knew enough about him at the start to really develop a crush on him.
Fan Theory: What if all the other guests at the masquerade ball are the previous human forms of the goblins that live in the labrynth? It would make sense because Jareth is almost always around the goblin horde and all the masks they are wearing are very goblinlike. What do you think?
I've heard a similar theory like this. Another one said that there were many Sarahs that came before who got lost in the Labrynth. That's why when Sarah talked to Hoggle for the first time, he wasn't surprised when she mentioned her name.
I think some of the previous Sarah's were turned into those trash ladies too. Sarah almost became one of them when the lady started piling her toys onto her, and I assume they couldn't remember what they were looking for just like Sarah couldn't after this scene.
I would have stayed. I would have married Jareth, lived in the castle beyond the Goblin City, and raised Toby together. With Ludo, Sir Didymus and Ambrosius and Hoggle as my best friends, I would have been the queen of the Labyrinth. Damn it, Sarah. You traded all that for your clueless, detached father and bitchy stepmother.
Ugh…the very look he gives her just before he approached her to dance and as he’s walking towards her melts me every single time…🥴 it screams, “mine”.❤

It's the exact sound and notes in the Bass Guitar pattern. A different type of instrument wouldn't sound as sweet, a different pattern of notes would sound as juicy.
It haunts the soul because it's perfect and beautiful you want it to happen but you know deep down it is impossible and doomed still its what you would want for yourself something pure and beautiful a little naughty but as I said sometimes only sometimes it comes true.
Ok but how did Jennifer Connelly skip the awkward teenage years? She was (still is!) naturally so beautiful. Bowie will always be the hypnotic Goblin King❤

Watching this scene makes my heart ache. It has always made me long for something that never existed. It also makes me sad, knowing that our Goblin King is no longer with us...
"It made me long for something that never existed". You literally read my mind; I watched Labyrinth when I was 8 years old and all through my life I have expected from my relationships something that was unreal, therefore unreachable. It hurts and always will.
I hope there's no remake or sequel. Nothing will ever be as amazingly cast as this. Such a beautiful crafted film from start to finish, that will never be captured by today's cinematography. Anything else would just ruin it. Plus, there is absolutely nobody on this planet that could ever replace David Bowie. Ever.
There technically is a sequel on comic form that's kinda crappy. On the plus side, there's also an excellent prequel comic that gives us an origin story for Jareth and how he became the Goblin King.
💯 so so true! No one could ever replace bowie or the songs he did for this movie it is just perfect as it is when I watch this movie it's like a time machine to my childhood love love LOVE THIS MOVIE! 🤗 ❤❤❤❤❤

I had a crush on both of them 😭 I was so obsessed with this movie I watched it almost everyday. It gives me so much comfort.It is hard to explain, but this movie feels like home. I love it. I sadly can't watch it at the moment :(
+Lauren Carroll If you imagine it, the idea becomes kind of hearthwarmingly funny. "Sir, there is a huge group of ladies, all asking you for a last dance." He certainly would be busy for a long time.
What a simple-minded, juvenile, tone deaf reductionistic piece of tripe criticism. "There is NO HOPE for the excessively literal minded," none, no aesthetic evolution of taste is possible. You can stick with the likes of Fast and Furious films, Giant Tractor Pulls, and goofball Super-Hero bilge, that's about your speed evidently, and realize, no one will takes your whining, emotionally deadened nonsense seriously as a reason not to enjoy this film, this scene, nothing, capiche? Case closed, no appeals!@@_RobBanks
if I was sarah fuck I would have stayed in the labyrinth and kissed him unconditionally yes for sure I would of married him too and be his beauty queen goblin.

@@SpecialOrder935 so he was 🌈... I knew it, I can spot them a mile away. Nvr heard of him before until I seen this clip. Nice song dough, and no it doesn't matter
@@SpecialOrder935 I honestly nvr heard of him. So he wasn't? Hmm... I would of bet he was just by that look he gave in that scene you pointed out. Either way it doesn't matter I was just curious cause according to the comments he was a very famous person.
I completely agree with you my friend. 80s and 90s in regard to music and movies have no comparison with nowadays "artistical expresions"....those were times of magic and perfection, good taste and excellent performances of real artist...now, unfortunately we have poor ideas, bad acting and most of the time bad taste. The taste changes throughout the time and new generations prefer justin biebers to Guns n Roses, Bad "fucking" Bonnies to Queen...or Bon Jovi etc...fast and furious to masterpieces like Braveheart or Gladiator or this delicious movie we got here. Even series are not what they used to be (Alf, the Simpsons, The A team, The Nanny, Different Strikes and so on). Now we got maluma tormenting our ears with bad voice and poor-disgusting ideas...as if were a "Poe" nightmare tale (I guess not even Poe could have invented such a striking torture)...well I got depressed I'll see the clip again. 😒
Played this at my wedding last year. It was my our father daughter dance. As Labyrinth was our film when I was a child. Week before the wedding my dad was told go home and enjoy your time left with your family. This song was so fitting for us. Will always be our song. My dear dad died 6 weeks later xxxx
There are a lot of parallels with Phantom of the Opera in this masterpiece. The older man in love with the younger girl, the mask, the masquerade ball, the seduction through music. Such a lovely movie.
@@zimriel Thank you! People are completely misinterpreting Jareth just cus they got a crush on him 🤦🏽♀️ He has her there against her will and won't give her brother back, something she desperately wants. The sus age gap aside, this would be a very toxic relationship. All these comments tell me is that these people would be turned into Goblins real quick 😂😂
The sad part is, had she followed her heart for him, she would have got everything she wanted, including him, Toby and all she wanted. He even said so with a clever play on words. As the little worm said to her, can't take nothing for granted, she kept that in mind, ironically she didn't catch on to what Jareth was trying to tell her. Damn, the writing in Labyrinth is so damn good. Underated.
He would have turned her into a goblin. Like the others at the ball. Now that I think about it, the goblin king reminds me of Ursula, when she turned mermaids to crap.
I watched that movie over and over as a girl. I was distressed every time she refused him. What a waste, she destroyed the dreams of so many of us romantics!
I never loved a fictional man before until I saw this. That was a long time ago, and the magic and memories have deepened for me. This is a love story of beauty, longing, unrequieted love. We can all relate. Thank you to Jim Henson (another Starman) for his vision, and thank you to David Bowie for his creation of the goblin king. This film will always be part of my world. He will always be in my heart. Love you forever, David Bowie.
Thank you for this post! Made me cry a bit. Feel all the same in every way. This movie was my child hood but a lasting piece forever at the same time. How I have watched something all these years but still has the ability to take me back is pretty magical.
Nope! I first really saw David Bowie in "Labyrinth".....& I was lost. Hopelessly, wonderfully, dreamily lost in love! :) I have been a huge fan of his ever since & always will. Then I discovered his other works, his music & films. I miss him still. The world is not the same without him.

This has always been one of my favorite movies, but the truth is a lot of it is incredibly slow and boring. Only a handful of scenes are memorable. A remake could be amazing.
+louise collins I'm ashamed to say this, but I never truly appreciated his music until I saw this film. I grew up listening to classic rock because that's what my parents would always play. They didn't listen to David so I never really did until just now. I'm just discovering all of his wonderful music. I had heard Changes and Life On Mars? before and now I adore him. I die a little inside when I watch this movie and when I hear his music. I'm so sad that he's gone. It isn't fair that we had to lose him, of all people. The same goes for Prince. Of all of the people that could have died, we lost them. They'll never truly be gone, though. They will live on.
Yup. We all want a grand finale of somebody completely destroying the place to get back to her friends so that she can get her childnapped brother and defeat you. :)
This part always gives me chills, she looks beautiful and David looks hypnotizing, the song, the ballroom and the outfits are amazing, such a beautiful movie
There's such a sad love Deep in your eyes, a kind of pale jewel Open and closed within your eyes I'll place the sky within your eyes There's such a fooled heart Beating so fast in search of new dreams A love that will last within your heart I'll place the moon within your heart As the pain sweeps through Makes no sense for you Every thrill has gone Wasn't too much fun at all But I'll be there for you As the world falls down Falling (As the world) Falling down Falling in love I'll paint your mornings of gold I'll spin your Valentine evenings Though we're strangers till now We're choosing the path between the stars I'll leave my love between the stars As the pain sweeps through Makes no sense for you Every thrill has gone Wasn't too much fun at all But I'll be there for you As the world falls down Falling (As the world) Falling down Falling As the world falls down Falling, falling, falling Falling in love As the world falls down Falling, falling, falling Falling in love As the world falls down Falling, falling, falling Makes no sense at all Makes no sense to fall Falling As the world falls down Falling, falling Falling in love As the world falls down Falling in love Falling in love Enquanto o Mundo Desaba Há um amor tão triste No fundo dos seus olhos, um tipo de joia pálida Aberta e fechada dentro dos seus olhos Eu colocarei o céu dentro dos seus olhos Há um coração tão enganado Batendo tão rápido à procura de novos sonhos Um amor que vai resistir dentro do seu coração Eu colocarei a lua dentro do seu coração A medida que a dor varre Não faz sentido pra você Toda emoção foi Não foi divertido no final das contas Mas eu estarei lá para você Enquanto o mundo desaba Caindo (Enquanto o mundo) Caindo Se apaixonando Eu vou pintar para você manhãs de ouro Eu vou girar você nas noites de namorados Embora sejamos estranhos até agora Nós estamos escolhendo o caminho entre as estrelas Eu deixarei meu amor entre as estrelas A medida que a dor varre Não faz sentido pra você Toda emoção foi Não foi divertido no final das contas Mas eu estarei lá para você Enquanto o mundo desaba Caindo (Enquanto o mundo) Caindo Caindo Enquanto o mundo desaba Caindo, caindo, caindo Se apaixonando Enquanto o mundo desaba Caindo, caindo, caindo Se apaixonando Enquanto o mundo desaba Caindo, caindo, caindo Não faz sentido nenhum afinal Não faz sentido nenhum cair Caindo Enquanto o mundo desaba Caindo, caindo Se apaixonando Enquanto o mundo desaba Se apaixonando Se apaixonando
And Sarah was looking especially delicious during this scene (of course this is coming from a 52 year old man who was only 25 or 26 when he saw this movie for the first time)
When i was a kid in the late 80's early 90's i used to watch this movie every single day. Every word and lyric is forever imprinted into my brain lol. I loved all the songs but this one gave my little self the feels. I was a sensitive lad XD

I was a frigid ice queen child, not at all concerned with the emotion of this whole scene but just now rewatching it as a, i would say "medium-level adult" I want to curl up fetal position & bawl my soul out for Jareth losing Sarah & maybe I might write some alternative ending fan fiction to fix my feels.... Oh, my feels.
30 years later and I too know every single word. I still quote random parts in my everyday conversations just because it makes me smile. I will never not love this movie!!
To get David Bowie to do all the songs in this movie was pure genius. She is gorgeous and so grown up...he is beautiful in makeup and it's dreamlike till the chair shatters the illusion xxx Still watch this movie. One of my favourites! RIP David Bowie
shannon campbell same, I was matching this movie when I was a little girl, and I finally watched it now and realized the reason I liked him so much...😅

I wouldn't call it "heartbreak" -- more like the illusory Jareth in this scene was bummed out that his scheme didn't go according to plan, and Sarah broke free of the dream bubble. (Remember that Jareth was manipulative throughout this entire scene, and had evil intentions of trapping Sarah here.)
@@vanizorc I think it's more grey than that; love what you wrote above and that is absolutely true, but I think it's also true, and part of the charm of this movie, is that he really does feel he has a connection with her, and feelings for her, in addition to scheming her. It's always been both, to me. It's a really touching scene.
@@Guitarsoul24734 Many people will have different interpretations of this film, and that's absolutely fine. Many will argue that Jareth's "confession" at the end of the film is proof that the "real Jareth" had feelings for Sarah all along, and this would be a logical interpretation. (Though I personally don't fully agree, since we can't know for sure if that was his last-ditch attempt to instigate another trap. Also, if he did like her, why would he set the cleaners on her, or act so nonchalant when one of his goblins asked about the drugged Sarah? Jareth's motives and actions are vague enough that there's probably no single "correct" explanation for the character, and Henson is long gone so we can't ask him...)
I first saw this in 1992 on VHS at the age of seven. A classmate brought this to our classroom. When I saw this scene, I fell in love with Jennifer Connelly. Even today, she still looks amazing.
I tried to play this movie for my first grade class, but apparently since it was rated PG, I wasn’t allowed to. We were only allowed to show G rated Movies in first grade. I was so angry because I just recently watched this movie and it was awesome. This is circa 2000 still a great classic.
I saw this at the cinema when it was first released, I was 12 years old.. I fell in love with The Goblin King and played this scene over and over, wishing I was Sarah and he looked at me like that...I'm 46 now and I still fall in love with him every time xx
I agree!! I'm 47 now & fell in love with David when this film came out......& ever since. I still do. That grin was almost everything charming you could imagine! I became a huge fan of his music & several others of his films. I miss him so much, the world isn't the same without him. 😢😢😢
@@juliapigworthy Interestingly, age had nothing to do with it & no one even commented on that when it debuted. Because it was looked at for what it was, as you said: fantasy material. And nothing sexual happened, not even a kiss, so no one would have blinked an eye in the '80s. It was thought of like Beauty & the Beast, or Cinderella-like. GOD How I miss the 1980s. :D
who's closed their eyes and listened to this and imagined being her? i think bowies voice was the best in this type of genre, he was amazing at this type of music
Hell yeah. You have my have my respect if you know and recognize the masterpiece that was and is this song. The movie and the soundtrack were way ahead of their time and Bowie pulled off one of the coldest villains imo. This movie and NeverEnding Story are definitely amazing. If you haven't you should look up the making of reverence and see how much work they actually put into all of those goblins and very short creatures. So much makeup wardrobe and work and time went into this. Did the vagabonde.. the old lady in the gigantic landfill / junkyard also scare the living shit out of you as a child? She was like no help at all. One of my favorite parts of the movie where those tiny creatures that would come and take the stone or whatever she had written the arrows on and turn it around to get you lost even more.
This is my favorite movie, and this is the song I listen to when I’m in quarantine, it always makes me forget things on my mind, this song is like a drug.
I can't even begin to tell you guys how much goosebumps and tingles this song still gives me. I always come back and listen to it when I write and I genuinely feel the beating of my heart whenever it plays. Rest in peace our Goblin King.

So sad we will never get movies like this again so glad I grew up with this! It transported me into a whole nother world and just made me more creative and imaginative
This was when I had my first crush..I was 7 years old and this scene up above was when i fell in love with him. He just had this aura that was so compelling to me. For some reason I remember making up a story telling my Mom and Dad that my brother's girlfriend Jessica had this huge crush on Jareth and as I was telling them this I said things like "that is so gross right!?". When in reality it was me who had this HUGE crush on him..I just wanted to see what they would say about it..I remember being so incredibly embarrassed to tell my parents I loved him because it was the first time I really admired someone and had these feelings I never felt...even if it was a celebrity! Little did I know they knew all about my crush from the beginning. I guess they caught me pretending to be Sarah dancing with Jareth trying to recreate this scene. Shortly after, my Father introduced me to his music apart from The Labyrinth's soundtrack and the first song I listened to was "Space Oddity" and from then on I fell in love with David Bowie. Him as this crazily talented, genuine person.. You will always be a Shining Star beautiful Bowie. I love you.
+Helen Skyee Oh my god I feel you, girl. I've been having a lot of trouble not getting emotional when I think of him and your comment just made me lose it.
Paul LaPierre yeah it will be my wedding song :) ***** Same..I can't even listen to Blackstar without balling my eyes out. He was something special. I'm happy to even have been alive when he was still making music. He will live on forever.
I have watched this movie since its release in 1986. Mind you I was 4 years old. I would pray every night to God to make me an adult so I could marry David Bowie. Silly, I know. But this movie made me closer to my stepdad who is a huge Bowie fan, and it also brought me closer to my grandpa, who passed away in 2012. My dad and I bonded over Bowies music, and grandpa and I bonded over this movie. My daughter loved this movie as a child, and now I get to pass it on to my step grandkids who absolutely love this movie. Words can not express how much this movie and the soundtrack truly means to me. R.I.P. both David and Jim. You may be gone from this earth, but the magic you had is very much with us all today. ❤❤
As a boy when i watched this i didn't notice anything about her, but now, my god she has to be one of the most beautiful girls I have ever seen. That look she gives...wow.
There’s such a sad love, deep in your eyes. A kind of pale jewel, open and closed. Within your eyes, I’ll place the sky, Within your eyes. There’s such a fooled heart, beating so fast. In search of new dreams, a love that will last. Within your heart, I’ll place the moon, within your heart. As the pain sweeps through, makes no sense for you. Every thrill has gone, wasn’t too much fun at all.... but I’ll be there for you. As the world falls down.🎶🤍🎶
I’ll paint you mornings of gold, I’ll spin you valentine evenings. Though we’re strangers till now, we’re choosing the path between the stars. I’ll leave my love, between the stars.

I showed this movie to my kids and I thought they kind of just tolerated it and barely got through it. Then about 6 months later they bring it home on DVD. So we own it. And I said I thought you thought that movie was kind of corny. And my kids are like no we liked it. Let's hear it for Labyrinth in 2018.
I was born in 1982 and grew up watching this and the Goonies. I introduced both of these movies to my daughter several years ago when she was small. She loves them. When we go on road trips she always asks me to play "You Remind me of the Babe."

By far this is one of those movies that will forever have an imprint in your heart & mind especially if you had watched it as a young child...My daughter had the exact same reaction I did after watching it & started crying cause she didn't want (Jareth David bowie to go away)

Man I was obsessed with this movie at one point 😅😁 one time when my brother wouldn't stop crying I put him in his crib and yelled "Goblin King please come take this baby away!" And waited hoping he was gone 😂😂😂 unfortunately he was still crying 😅😂
Me too. Couldn't listen to his music for a few years because it was painful. Didn't know it would hit me so hard, but it did. I think I'm at the stage where watching him again reminds me of why I thought he was cool, but still feel sad but happy that we were on the same planet at the same time.

The way Jareth sings the song to Sarah just makes my heart cry, this is the best scene in the movie for sure- The way Jareth looks at her when she’s running away, his heart broke right there but he knew deep down she would make it, and she gave everything she ever wished for, including Jareth. The eye contact, gosh you could feel everything by just observing.❤️😩
Its 2019 and this scene is always my favourite!! Her make up and gown is so so beautiful and he looks so gothicly handsome. I would like to think they are silently crushing on each other because the chemistry is so there.

This movie is what made me a life-long fan of David Bowie, and I danced to this song at my wedding. To me the ballroom scene wasn't just a dream sequence but a metaphor for the choice that Sarah had to make: stay in her dream world or find her baby brother and grow up. The novelization of the movie explains that the goblins are children that Jareth has previously stolen and twisted into this bizarre form of immortality. I believe he might genuinely have been in love with her, since another passage in the novel shows him thinking, "too old to turn into a goblin but too young to be kept by him, damn her innocent eyes."
Indeed there is. Written by A.C.H. Smith with contributions from Terry Jones and Jim Henson it was published in 1985 as a mass market paperback. It was re-released last year and you can find it on Amazon.
I think I was just 5 when I first watched this movie, and it's strange I still have this daydream feeling in love with someone I haven't even met yet whenever I hear this song 🧡🍂.
If there's a remake, I think Harry Styles has some similar features to be the Goblin King 🙄 I can't think someone else other than him. Aaaand... for as Sarah, perhaps like Mckenzy Foy? 🤔 age gaps between two leads is a good factor to create great romantic chemistry since it's fantasy. 😊🥰
I consider David Bowie aka goblin king the first guy I ever had a crush on. I was a really little when I frist saw this movie. From that day on I had such a respect for him. It's very rare that I become emotional over a death of someone that I didn't even know. This time is different. Rest In Peace my first make believe boyfriend. I was probably about 5 years old.
+emjayyap same here, I was 7 I think 💔 it's somewhat nice that I'm not the only one feeling so emotional, considering we never met him. But we didn't need to, for we loved his beautiful soul. He will live in our hearts forever, as the sweetest memory.
I feel the same! Even though you don't know them personally... They meant so much and it's so emotional :s you totally summed up how I feel completely! David Bowie won't RIP though... Wherever he is he'll still be the same quirky innovative person he always was! ❤️
