Instead of discussing Madonna's name or how great she looks or how we all
want to fuck her.  Let's keep the discussion intelligent.  Doesn't anyone
remember that the "I" in IDM stands for "Intelligent"!

Talking about her new single, its hard to listen to it without a bias
towards a pop superstar.  Its actually pretty fine (honestly).  Although
there had to be moments of catchy pop formula, the record showcases a lot
of William Orbit.  If I did not know it was Madonna, I would have thought
One Dove have finally released a record.
