  Closer by T. Jonesy and Killa

  Vogue by by Luminosity
  
  One of New York magazine's Best Videos of the year, and that's no lie. In Vogue, Luminosity punctures the violence of 300 by defiantly aestheticizing both the battlefield and the men on it. She conflates the battlefield and the dance floor, subjecting the men to a female and queer gaze and setting Madonna up as this world's reigning pagan goddess. An instant classic that went straight into vidding canon.
