The second music video in this top by Madonna is the “Express Yourself” an inducement she gives us to be more creative and talks about rejecting material pleasures and only accepting the best for oneself.
At the time it was released, Madonna’s Express Yourself music video, was the most expensive one.
The video was inspired and modeled after the classic film “Metropolis.”
David Fincher (Zodiac, Fight Club, Se7en) was the one who directed video which features a masculine-clad Madonna as she oversees workers in a factory and sings about not settling for second best.
