"Comin' Up for Air"is the fifth of five songs from a 2006 English-language French-Danish animated feature film Asterix and the Vikings soundtrack. It serves as the film's second end credits song. While it's used the original English and international releases, the French dubbing replaces it with "Les Plus Beaux Combats", that uses slightly changed instrumental of "Comin' Up for Air", but with different lyrics, that aren't poetic translation of the original English ones. That version is performed by French singer Amel Bent (who also performed the "Eye of the Tiger" cover for the film).

Can't slow down to save my life I'm in over my heart Can't fall asleep tonight, oh no I'd run away if I had my choice I'd jump on a train and ride out all the noise, the noise But you keep me sane In a world that won't stop spinnin' The sky keeps rainin' You are always there Every day that I'm barely breathin' Your lovin' keeps me comin' up for air Comin' up for air Yeah Where'd you get those eyes to see Through the chaos that's surroundin' me? Oh yeah Never been known inside and out I don't understand why you stick around, oh Keepin' me sane In a world that won't stop spinnin' The sky keeps rainin' You are always there Every day that I'm barely breathin' Your lovin' keeps me comin' up for air You keep me from suffocating And under my darkest ocean you save me You save me You save Yes, you! In a world that won't stop spinnin' The sky keeps rainin' You are always there Every day that I'm barely breathin' Your lovin' keeps me comin' up for air In a world that won't stop spinnin' The sky keeps rainin' You are always there Every day that I'm barely breathin' Your lovin' keeps me comin' up for air Comin' up for air.
