[edit] Unreleased titles

Warner Bros. Records have announced numerous Madonna music video titles that have never materialized, mostly with no explanation. Releases such as the "American Life" (2003) [1]DVD single, Get Up Lisbon! - The Re-Invention World Tour Live (2005) [2]and "Sorry" (2006) DVD single were announced and later cancelled.

There was also a 20th Anniversary Box Set due to be released in 2003 with exclusive performances and videos but was also shelved due to a legal matter regarding Madonna and Maverick Records against Warner Music Group[3]. The CD mini-album Remixed & Revisited was released instead. The music video to "American Life" was also to be included as an extra on the DVD release of I'm Going To Tell You A Secret but was later omitted with no reason.[4]

The official DVD releases of the tours Blond Ambition, The Virgin Tour and Re-Invention have never been released. Pioneer Artists still holds the rights to the Blond Ambition concert released in 1990 and the Re-Invention show scheduled for release in 2005 has been delayed due to contractual agreements regarding the documentary I'm Going To Tell You A Secret.
