A few points:

Whether or not you like Madonna, or care about her one way or the other,
Orbit's involvement alone makes this project one of interest.

As for Madonna's "insulting... surreptitious acquisition of a sacred name,"
that happens to be her birth name, not some kind of attention-grabbing
stage name.  So blame her mother...

Speaking of which, "Madonna" really just means "mother."  Now if she were
calling herself "Madonna Mary Magdalene" or writing songs called "Like a
Virgin Mary," you'd have reason to get bent about it.
