suited to exploiting the constantly mutating tastes of MTV faddism than the woman who literally looks like a million dollars. Showcasing Madonna's gift for associating herself with the prime movers in music and style, all the videos collected in this comprehensive collection are beautifully shot and instantly evoke the mood swings of popular culture in the 1980s and 90s.The Immaculate Collectioncovers the earlier period from "Lucky Star" to "Vogue", with highlights including the Catholic soap-opera of "Papa Don't Preach" and the videos for "Express Yourself", "Oh Father" and "Vogue" that helped send David Fincher on this way to directing features such asSevenandFight Club.A Fincher video for "Bad Girl" also opens the second collection, covering the years 1993 to 1999, with Mark Romanek's treatment for "Rain" the standout offering from the first eight songs. Despite these early highlights, however, there is no denying the degree to which the videos get noticeably better overall when good songs are the driving force in the collection's second half, comprising five tracks from theRay of Lightalbum and the Austin Powers theme "Beautiful Stranger". Compared to the lightweight covers of "Fever" and "Love Don't Live Here Anymore", the pseudo-surrealism of "Bedtime Story", and flimsy flirtation with S&M in "Human Nature" these later videos are marked improvements. Although theThomas Crown Affaireroticism of "The Power of Goodbye" already seems a little dated, the morphing black witch of "Frozen" and life on speed of "Ray of Light" are both wonderfully realised. Best of all is the closing moment of "Substitute for Love" when, having survived paparazzi harassment and the harsh, transmogrifying faces of the crowd, Madonna and child conjure a truly arresting moment of private joy and vindication. Nowhere is her ability to take the potentially embarrassing and make it both playful and moving more evident. --Steve Napleton

Advantages: great songs, great videos Disadvantages: doesn't include any more up-to-date stuff
...Girl, and the video stars Madonna and Christopher Walken is some murder/spy type tale that I haven't quite grasped. Next is Madonna's cover of Fever, with Madonna sporting red hair and body paint. Not a great song, though. Rain is a really good video, very stylish and it hasn't really dated although it is now 8 years old.
Secret is another good black and white video and a good song. Take a Bow's theme is bullfighting, and it is a strong ... ...
Human Nature feature Madonna and a lot of leather clad dancers - "I have no regrets" she asserts at the end. Love Don't Live Here Anymore is a very basic video, simply Madonna singing the song in a room with no editing at all.
The next five videos are from the Ray of Light album - Frozen, Ray of Light, Drowned World/Substitue For Love, The Power of Goodbye and Nothing Really Matters. Of these the best are the speeded-up ... more
This video contains some of Madonna's best videos since the release of her Immaculate Collection album. It includes all the singles from the classic Ray of Light album, plus the excellent Beautiful Stranger. Madonna's videos are always innovative and interesting to watch, and the songs ain't bad too!
The first track is Bad Girl, and the video stars Madonna and Christopher Walken is some murder/spy type tale that I haven't quite grasped. Next is Madonna's cover of Fever, with Madonna sporting red hair and body paint. Not a great song, though. Rain is a really good video, very stylish and it hasn't really dated although it is now 8 years old.
Secret is another good black and white video and a good song. Take a Bow's theme is bullfighting, and it is a strong track that got to No.1 in America although it didn't even make the Top 10 in the UK. Bedtime Story is written by Bjork and the video is very Bjork-like too, full of three-eyed people wearing funny hats!
Human Nature feature Madonna and a lot of leather clad dancers - "I have no regrets" she asserts at the end. Love Don't Live Here Anymore is a very basic video, simply Madonna singing the song in a room with no editing at all.
The next five videos are from the Ray of Light album - Frozen, Ray of Light, Drowned World/Substitue For Love, The Power of Goodbye and Nothing Really Matters. Of these the best are the speeded-up effects on Ray of Light, the eastern influences on the excellent Nothing Really Matters, and the use of Angus Deayton's house in Drowned World.
The final video is the best of the lot, Beautiful Stranger, with Madonna unsubtly seducing Austin Powers. Overall the songs and videos tend to get better as you go through the collection, and it is interesting to see the many different images that one woman can have. Well worth buying.
