We've had some big, bold music videos this decade - some more well received than others - which five stand out best?

Girl Gone Wild
Ghosttown
Medellin
Dark Ballet
God Control

'God Control' easily the best! Very hard to say what was the last video to top it! In terms of emotional impact, the original 'American Life', but I know in terms of just personal preference I love 'Hung Up'.

I remember 'Ghosttown' being my favourite Madonna video for years at the time. I was so pleased to have some actual story telling at long last! She looks great and the dancing at the end is a highlight.

I'll have a think about my top 5, but instantly - God Control is the best!

Yep, difficult to argue for anything other than those 5 in some order or another. Don't think any of the others come vaguely close.

Still gutted we never received a video for 'Gang Bang'. Madonna seemed really game for it at the time but she only wanted Quentin Tarantino to direct it, which he rejected. She was capable of making a killer video without him.

I have a soft spot for the 'GMAYL' video too. It's so obviously a parody which makes it enjoyable, unlike the song which I think was meant seriously.
