I actually really like the celebration video but not enough to give it points as its not just up to the standard of most of them.

Agree with this, video is fabulous but not as iconic as the rest.

 

Excited for the pointed videos now!

45. Give It 2 Me // 7 Points

 

Director: Tom Munro, Nathan Rissman

 

The video for 'Give It 2 Me' celebrates style and glamour, having been shot during Madonna's photoshoot sessions for Elle magazine. After stretching in front of a wall mirror, similar to the start of 'Hung Up', Madonna dances around in various designer outfits. She gives eyes towards the camera as flickering effects give the suggestion of a photographer taking rapidly shot photos. It's a stylish, artsy video and Madonna proves she's as energetic, sexy and confident as she enters her 50s.

 

Give it 2 Me should have been a bigger hit ! It is so much better then 4 minutes .

 

I don't find the video that great and the radio edit cut out the catchy part of the track .

 

Still the song is a fav and the live performance on the sticky and seeet tour was everything !!

Tbf I think 'Give It 2 Me' did pretty well all considered, but I agree it would be nice if it were bigger. I think I prefer it to '4 Minutes' too.

 

I love the performance on the S&S Tour - so intense and Madonna absolutely rocks it. I like the little sample for the MDNA Tour closer too.

44. Beautiful Stranger // 9 Points

 

Director: Brett Ratner

 

'Beautiful Stranger' served as the lead single to the Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me soundtrack. Unlike previous movie theme songs that had music videos containing film excerpts, the video for 'Beautiful Stranger' featured the actors from the film in character, notably Mike Myers as Austin Powers. The pair had previously collaborated on Saturday Night Live in 1991 and the humour and seduction elements were the main components for 'Beautiful Stranger'. Austin Powers is informed of a "master of disguise" that has been bringing fellow agents down by seducing them and is directed to a club to spy on her. As he watched Madonna perform on stage, he finds himself fantasising about her and ultimately ends up seduced by her. It's a comical video, refreshing after the Ray of Light era, and earned itself nominations at the music video awards for MTV and Billboard.

 

Randomly I have been listening to this gem today. Because it doesn't feature on a studio album I do not play this as often as j should. Decent and comical video for a soundtrack song.

 

She looks amazing in this video even though fit and muscular.

 

This needs another tour outing !

She looks so magnificent in the Beautiful Stranger video....it was massive at the time, loved how she was now able to knock out big selling hits in the UK...back then I remember discovering she had a new single coming out via ceefax :lol:

I agree about overlooking 'Beautiful Stranger' as a result of not featuring on a studio album. A shame because it's one of her catchiest pop hooks.

 

I feel like the success of its video set up the foundation for the 'Music' video.

43 . Dear Jessie // 10 Points

 

Director: Derek Hayes

 

The video for 'Dear Jessie' extends on the themes expressed in the song and directly recreates the imagery depicted by the lyrics. As a girl sleeps, her imagination runs free and she envisions a fairy (Madonna) that makes her toys come alive with a touch of fairydust. It's a very cute video that celebrates the innocence and fantasies of childhood.

42. Bitch I'm Madonna // 16 Points

 

Director: Jonas Åkerlund

 

Drawing influence from her performance on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, the video for 'Bitch I'm Madonna' depicts an extravagant party thrown by Madonna in a hotel. Madonna used her social media to post teasers for the video, revealing celebrity names that would be appearing in the video such as Katy Perry, Beyonce and Miley Cyrus. The appearances of such names, some onset and some added separately, miming to the hook helped perpetuate the notion that we are all Madonna, someone who is cool when faced with criticism and lives life to the full. Comparisons were made with Taylor Swift's big-budget, cameo-heavy 'Bad Blood' music video and received polarising opinions, all helping the video to become Madonna's most watched with 250m+ VEVO views.

 

 

I actually prefer the Jimmy Fallon performance .

 

I have been to the hotel that this was filmed in but before the video was shot!

Not exactly but the restaurant is amazing 😉

41. Erotica // 17 Points

 

Director: Fabien Baron

 

Starring as her alter-ego Mistress Dita, Madonna uses the video for 'Erotica' to portray a variety of sexually-charged images that were designed to shock the audience. Some of the footage was taken from the shooting for Madonna's Sex book and the grainy, home-video effect gives the video a raw edge that Madonna had been searching for in the music. The hype for the video release was high, with fans left amazed by the final cut and the media left horrified. After three plays, MTV banned the video all together.

 

Erotica doesn’t compare to JML

 

I know I’m fussy but would be nice if you could add members points .
