In the video, we see Jeremy performing in a literal hole in the wall style nightclub. As he walks along after the performance, he finds himself seeing various strange creatures out of the corner of his eye, beings that lure him to the magical realm of the underground where he is their king. you know In the “Underground” music video, David Bowie seems to borrow the character of Jeremy from the Labyrinth novelization, the lover of Sarah’s estranged biological mother, and merged him as a sort of alter ego for Jareth, who seems to be struggling with a desire for a human life and his love of the magic and authority he has as Goblin King.

In the novelization of Labyrinth Jeremy is the man whom Sarah's biological mother, an actress, happened to run off with years before. In the novelization, Jeremy was an actor and co-star in a play in which Sarah's mother had starred. In the novelization, Jeremy is the man who gave Sarah her music box, which in the book plays "Greensleeves," and in the movie plays "As the World Falls Down," the same song that Jareth uses to try to seduce Sarah while within his Labyrinth.

Though Sarah renounces the power Jareth holds over her it does appear she actually gives him what he wants.

Since we know that Hoggle became Prince of the Land of Stench, and that Sir Didymus was ever the valiant knight, I'd love to know how his story continued. 2- Was there never any backlash for Sir Didymus of Ludo's helping of Sarah? Since Hoggle was punished, it just would seem more fitting that the blame be somewhat shared. 3- If the Labyrinth is a manifestation of Jareth's will, why is it still being built by the bug-thing in Volume 1, and does he ever come back into play? More movie-related, I guess, but I still would love to know your theories. Okay, so these are a little late, but I haven’t been on in a while, so:
