While I particularly don't care very much about Madonna's music (Is not that I hate, I'm just not into her songs), this video is rather enchanting, capturing perfectly well the whimsical innocence of children's imagination at a very young age, before any cynicism or malice kicks in.
There are some neat nods to classic Disney animated films, besides of the obvious Madonna as Tinkerbell reference: The animation of the violins is somewhat reminiscent of the Toccata and Fugue sequence from Fantasia, the pink elephants from Dumbo (Albeit depicted in a much more friendly manner)
The video was directed by Derek W. Hayes, who also worked in the stop-motion movie The Miracle Maker, which I also highly recommend.
