"As the World Falls Down" is a song written by David Bowie in 1986 for the soundtrack of the film Labyrinth.
EMI considered releasing "As the World Falls Down" as a single in late 1986. As a result, 3:40 edit was produced as was a video shot by "Underground" video director Steve Barron. However, perhaps because Bowie did not want the love ballad to lessen the impact of his upcoming harder-sounding release Never Let Me Down, the single release was cancelled. The edit was released as a bonus track on the Virgin Records re-release of Tonight in 1995, and the video was included on Bowie – The Video Collection (1993) and on the DVD version of Best of Bowie (2002).
