"Brave New World" was the tenth UK single by the band Toyah, fronted by Toyah Willcox, and was released in 1982. It was to be the only single release from The Changeling (album).
The single, which was backed by an exclusive b-side and a music video (heavilly inspired by David Bowie's Ashes To Ashes) directed by David Mallett, only reached Number 21 in the UK Singles Charts, and further single releases from the album were mooted, but never appeared.
The full length version of this song, and the b-side "Warrior Rock", were eventually included on the 1999 reissue of The Changeling (album), while the single edit and the b-side both feature on the 2005 compilation The Safari Singles Collection Part 2: 1981-1983.
