The clip for 'As the World Falls Down' integrates clips from the film, using them alongside black-and-white shots of Bowie performing the song in an elegant room. The music video for 'Underground' features Bowie as a nightclub singer who stumbles upon the world of the Labyrinth, encountering many of the creatures seen in the film. Steve Barron produced promotional music videos for 'Underground' and 'As The World Falls Down'. The soundtrack was advertised in music trade papers such as Billboard. A second pressing the same year also included limited runs of green and lavender coloured vinyl. In 2017, the album was remastered and reissued on vinyl by Capitol Records, with a replication of the original jacket and artwork, including the original release's EMI America logo and inner sleeve featuring photos of Bowie from the film. 'As The World Falls Down' was initially slated for release as a follow-up single to 'Underground' at Christmas in 1986, but this plan did not materialize. In January 1987 'Magic Dance' was released as a 12' single in limited markets, including the U.S. 'Underground' was released in various territories as a single in June 1986, and in certain markets was also released in an instrumental version and an extended dance mix. The soundtrack album was released in July 1986 to coincide with the film's U.S. The only song Bowie did not perform lead vocal on is 'Chilly Down', which was performed by Charles Augins, Richard Bodkin, Kevin Clash, and Danny John-Jules, the actors who voiced the 'Fire Gang' creatures in the film. The film's theme song, 'Underground', features on the soundtrack twice, first in an edited version that was played over the film's opening sequence and secondly in full. Д«owie recorded five songs for the film: ' Underground', ' Magic Dance', 'Chilly Down', ' As The World Falls Down', and 'Within You'. Bowie had wanted to make music for a children's film and saw this as his chance.
